Abstract: The captured memories and the public representations of Holocaust events in Slovakia are characterised by ambivalent evaluation of the events and by symptoms of silence or even disinterest and elimination of memories. They also bring much evidence on active or passive involvement of non-Jewish inhabitants of Slovakia in these events. The nature of interviews, their course, and the formulation of sentences suggested that it was “hard recollections”. The respondents rarely admitted explicitly that what happened to their Jewish neighbours contradicted their own morale and values. The fact that they are aware (at present) that they were part of inhumane processes leading to the genocide of Jews is apparent from the context of their testimonies and non-verbal expressions. Though the respondents involved in the research represent only one (very specific) part of the “silent majority” which formed the “Holocaust environment”, these circumstances highlight the fact that also non-Jewish witnesses of the wartime Slovak state and the Holocaust in Slovakia are traumatised by this experience.
