I dislike the poem that Babi Yar Babi Yar (Yevgeny Yevtushenko) told a small part of the invasion of Russian Nazis, during World War II, over 100,000 Jews, gypsies, Russian prisoners were cruel There was a situation. It was murdered. But this particular view is unique in that the narrator is not a Jew, but a simple observer shocked by the atrocities that occurred during the Holocaust. In addition to Jewish perception and history by the narrator, Yevtushenko also stereotypes the absurdity of hatred that has led to the Holocaust through implications and other literary means.
About the poetry of Babiyar commemorating the massacre of Nazi Ain Satsu Gruppe during the Second World War, about the valley of Kiev in the capital of Ukraine. In one of the atrocities that occurred between 29th and 30th September 1941, 31,771 Jewish men, women and children were murdered during the Ein Satz Gruppe operations. On 22 June 1941, Nazi ยท Germany attacked the Soviet Union with Barbarossa. On September 19, 1941, the German army quickly crossed the 1939 Bossu border and arrived in Kiev on September 19, 1941. Ten days later, following the explosion at the headquarters of the German army, the Jews were rounded up, marched out of the city, exiled. And slaughtering; they are stacked on top of each other in Babi Yar (literally meaning "grandmother's valley").
Babi Yar, Ukraine, Babiy Yar, Baby Yar The big valley at the northern end of the is a mass cemetery of victims, mainly Jews, between 1941 and 1943 the Nazi German SS was murdered. Babiyar, which originally massacred the Jews, was still used as a Soviet prisoner of captive war and Roman (gypsy) and Jewish executions. After the war, the Soviets said that 100,000 people died. The real number may never be known. Babi Yar became the first stage of killing during the Holocaust and became a symbol of the massacre of Einsatzgruppen (German: "deployment group") - Mobile Killing Unit
A small obelisk was built in Babi Yar in 1966. At last a memorial image of 15 feet (50 feet) was built in 1974. The identity of the victim is ambiguous and the word Jewish is not used. Until 1991, in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the massacre of Babi Yar, the new independent Ukrainian government recorded the identity of the victim of the monument.
The starting point of Yevtushenko's poem is to remember the massacre that happened in Babi Yar. Twenty years after the incident, when he visited Babi Yar, Yevtushenko was shocked to know that the area was illegal dumping. In September 1941, approximately 34,000 Jews massacred at that location did not have a monument; in the coming months and years, additional Jews, gypsies, communists And the Soviet prisoners, they were slaughtered even in Babihar. Yevtushenko used his poem to remember Jewish victims for centuries, but his theme is that people who died in Babi Yar should not be forgotten. The monument helps to celebrate Jews and other death victims, but they may be destroyed or destroyed. In contrast, Yevtushenko's poem will be a more prolonged memorial to the dead.
