Survivors who have written about their camp experiences include [[Jorge Semprún]], who in ''Quel beau dimanche!'' describes conversations involving [[Johann Wolfgang von Goethe|Goethe]] and [[Léon Blum]], and [[Ernst Wiechert]], whose ''Der Totenwald'' was written in 1939 but not published until 1945, and which likewise involved Goethe. Scholars have investigated how camp inmates used art to help deal with their circumstances, and according to [[Theodor Ziolkowski]] writers often did so by turning to Goethe.<ref>{{cite journal |last=Ziolkowski |first=Theodore |year=2001 |title=Das Treffen in Buchenwald oder Der vergegenwärtigte Goethe |journal=Modern Language Studies |volume=31 |issue=1 |pages=131–50 |jstor=3195281 |doi=10.2307/3195281}}</ref> Artist [[Léon Delarbre]] sketched, besides other scenes of camp life, the [[Goethe Oak]], under which he used to sit and write.<ref>{{cite book|last=Jenkins|first=David Fraser|title=John Piper: The Forties|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=y7WuzDK3dSkC&pg=PA84|year=2000|publisher=New Age International|isbn=978-0-85667-534-8|page=84}}</ref> One of the few prisoners who escaped from the camp, the Belgian Edmond Vandievoet, recounted his experiences in a book whose English title is "I escaped from a Nazi Death Camp" [Editions Jourdan, 2015].
