Its history constitutes a crossroads in the various stages of the Third Reich's persecution of women accused of offending the Nazi state and of those ethnically and racially persecuted. Women from different social strata national ethnic and religious origins were forced to live together under the most extreme conditions within the social system created by the SS." "From its first days until its liberation thousands of Jewish women girls and children were among Ravensbruck's prisoners. They were part of the camp's population even when the industrial mass killing was 'exported' to the East - and Germany including its concentration camps was to be 'freed' of all Jews." "Against the overall background of the Nazi concentration camps and Holocaust historiography this collection of essays provides a socio-historical in-depth analysis of the singularity of the female Jewish experience by focusing on the Jewish experience in the microcosm of Ravensbruck Through maintaining the connection to the system and the surroundings both inside and outside the camp as well as the individual voices of the victims these essays avoid the kind of representation that distances us from the actual events." --Book Jacket.
