There are four Irish victims of the Holocaust, according to new research unveiled in Dublin on Sunday at the at the annual Holocaust Memorial Day Service.

It was previously believed there was only one Jewish person from Ireland murdered in the Holocaust – Esther Steinberg.

Dr David Jackson, a consultant statistician, presented the research at the annual service at the Mansion House.

Dr Jackson revealed Isaac Shishi, Ephraim Saks and his sister Lena Saks, were all born in Ireland but their families returned to Europe when they were children.

All of these Irish-born citizens, together with members of their families, were murdered by the Nazis in the Holocaust.

"Online records now available from a wide variety of sources including the Holocaust Centre in Jerusalem have allowed me to piece together these lost and forgotten stories," Dr Jackson said.

“I believe there may be more and I will continue to research.”

Commemoration

The National Holocaust Memorial Day Commemoration is organised by Holocaust Education Trust Ireland (HETI) to commemorate the six million Jewish people who were killed by the Nazis.

President Michael D Higgins, Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs Simon Coveney, Minister for Justice Charlie Flanagan, Minister for Housing Eoghan Murphy and Holocaust survivors Tomi Reichental, Suzi Diamond and Walter Sekules were among those in attendance.

President Higgins said as anti-Semitism and racism once again begin to rise across Europe, “we must remember the Holocaust collectively and work together to ensure that hatred and inhumanity is not allowed to once again spread its dark shadow across Europe and the world”.

The Holocaust has been a prominent subject of art and literature throughout the second half of the twentieth century. There is a wide range of ways–including dance, film, literature, music, and television–in which the Holocaust has been represented in the arts and popular culture.

The subject of the Holocaust has been depicted within modern dance. In , Anna Sokolow, a Jewish-American choreographer, created her piece Dreams, as an attempt to deal with her night terrors. Eventually, it became an aide-mémoire to the horrors of the Holocaust. In , Israeli choreographer Rami Be'er tried to illustrate the feeling of being trapped in Aide Memoire (Hebrew title: Zichron Dvarim). The dancers move ecstatically, trapped in their turmoil, spinning while swinging their arms and legs, and banging on the wall; some are crucified, unable to move freely on the stage. This piece was performed by the Kibbutz Contemporary Dance Company. In , Tatiana Navka caused controversy when she and her dancing partner, Andrei Burkovsky, appeared in the Russian version of Dancing on Ice dressed as concentration camp prisoners.

The Holocaust has been the subject of many films, such as Night and Fog (), The Pawnbroker (), The Sorrow and the Pity (), Voyage of the Damned (), Sophie's Choice (), Shoah (), Korczak (), Schindler's List (), Life Is Beautiful (), The Pianist () and The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas ().
