The performance of Metanoia Artopédia Theatre in Szeged, entitled Ice Doctrines, was set up specifically with the intention of making young generations today sensitive to the dangers of Nazi hate speech, and teaching them to recognize its elements in today's public discourse. The presentation chooses a more unusual way of representing the Holocaust aesthetic by focusing on the perpetrators rather than the perspective of the victims, more specifically on the language use and thinking of the perpetrators, the language propaganda called LTI (Lingua Tertii Imperii, Language of the Third Reich) by Victor Klemperer, the Literature scientist survivor and eyewitness of Dresden, which was able to make the consciousness of ordinary people in mass sizes, and to make them murderers or collaborators of murderers.
The textbook of the performance is a unique collage of widely interpreted age documents: it contains quotes from survivors' memoirs (Dr. Miklós Nyiszli, Victor Klemperer, Ovics Perla), but based mainly on speeches and statements by the perpetrators, German and Hungarian responsible for genocide (Hitler, Himmler, Eichmann, László Endre, Miklós Horthy, Dezső Szabó, etc.), and among the Nazi texts of the 30s and 40s, he places among the extreme right-wing manifestations today, comments by anonymous actors of blogs, Internet forums, and statements by some public figures today.
The presentation entitled Ice Doctrines was prepared with a special open dramaturgy: a sociological questionnaire allows the audience's opinion to be taken into account from lecture to lecture.
