May I be a sacrifice for my grandchildren—transgenerational transmission and women’s narratives of the Yezidi ferman
Maria Six-Hohenbalken · 2018
Catalogue summary
Drawing on fieldwork with Yezidi families who resettled in Armenia after Ottoman-era violence, the study traces how women narrate inherited persecution across generations. It examines gendered experience, silence, and the renewed impact of violence in Shingal on a community whose collective memory is rooted in refuge in Armenia.
Why this matters
It brings an Armenian-based minority community into research on transgenerational memory and mass violence, showing how gender, refuge, and cross-border events shape lived experience.
