Softcover, 503 pages, 8vo. "We devote nearly half of volume 32 of Yad Vashem Studies to various aspects of the Holocaust in [Hungary]. Six articles by both established and lesser-known scholars break new ground in Holocaust research and analysis. Randolph Braham reassesses rescue operations in Hungary, focusing on six major operations. He makes penetrating, critical observations on the motivations, objectives, strategies, and tactics of the Jewish, Hungarian, and German participants involved. Most importantly, Braham differentiates between what he sees as the myths and the realities that were related in many postwar accounts of the rescue of Jews in Hungary....László Karsai presents a first analysis of war crimes' trials in Hungary by the Hungarian People's Courts. ...Guy Miron and Anna Szalai look at Jewish reactions to the anti-Jewish laws passed in Hungary and, in the process, reveal a great deal about Hungarian Jewish identity on the eve of the Holocaust there. ...Three articles in this volume relate to Polish-Jewish relations and interactions before and during the Holocaust. Dariusz Libionka's analysis of the attitudes of the Polish Catholic intellectual press toward the Jews in the 1930s makes for devastating reading. ...Felicja Karay discusses the fascinating and strange case of the HASAG-Kielce forced-labor camp...Edward Kossoy tells the remarkable story of a group of 400 Jewish prisoners in the Gesiówka camp in Warsaw, who were liberated by a volunteer Polish force during the first days of the Polish uprising in Warsaw in August 1944....Three articles address the impact of new battlegrounds on the Holocaust as perceived from three different perspectives--the Germans, the Jews, and the Allies. Dan Michman returns to one of the best-known documents from the Holocaust--Heydrich's Schnellbrief--and asks the simple yet heretofore unaddressed question: why was it written? .... The late Raquel Hodara analyzes the activities and reactions of Polish Jewish women to the Nazis during the first months of the occupation. .... And finally, Nicholas Terry re-examines the level of information and comprehension of the Holocaust in British military intelligence circles during the first months of the systematic murder of the Jews. ...The volume concludes with five review articles on books by German, American, and Israeli authors. Joachim Neander reviews three new books on the SS economic administration and the forced labor that it employed; Yaacov Lozowick reviews Isabel Heinemann's book on the SS-Race and Resettlement Main Office; Judith Baumel reviews Nechama Tec's book on women, men, and the Holocaust; Michael Berenbaum reviews Dan Michman's book on Holocaust historiography from a Jewish perspective; and Nathan Cohen reviews the encyclopedia of Holocaust literature edited by Lillian Kremer. Two important aspects of the Holocaust that are highlighted in the contents of this volume--the Holocaust in Hungary and the individual--are reflected in the cover photos. Sándor Markovits's pocket watch individualizes fourteen Hungarian Jews from Simleul Silvaniei (Szilágysomlyó) whom the Nazis set out to murder in 1944, in their last-ditch effort to complete the "Final Solution. " In the background we see the faces of Hungarian Jews deported from the Carpathian Mountains to Birkenau at nearly exactly the same moment in history at which the Markovits family was deported.

19880188Porto Alegre, Revisão, 1988. In-8, 233 x 166 mm, 320 pp. First English edition. Translated from Portuguese by Murilo Alves Lopes and Sandra Beatriz Zagonel. Brown hardcover with author's name and book title on the front plate and the spine, original colored softcover inside with flaps. Dedication, thank-you list and table of contents at the beginning. Translator's note and preface opening the book, epilogue and list of source at the end. Widely illustrated with pictures and maps. Tables and many quotes along the way. This is the English edition of S. E. Castan's Holocausto: Judeu ou Alemão? published in 1987. This book puts forward "another version of the World War Two history" told by Germans themselves (Overture, p. 11) and gives another account than the orthodox Nuremberg judgment narrative. It went through multiple editions in Brazil, becoming a library success before Castan's publisher was trialed for "racism." Though the Brazilian law prohibits expressions of racism and offense to religious cults, it does not forbid from doubting the Nuremberg narrative and official version of the World War Two, which this book does. Both original Portuguese and translated English copies have become increasingly rare. Includes a reference to the Leuchter report, another staple of revisionism, which was also translated and published in Portuguese by Revisão (Acabou o gás: o fim de um mito) in 1989. The gaúcho Siegfried Ellwanger Castan (1928-2010) started working in a factory at 12 years old. He became an industrialist, dealing with iron and steel as a branch office organizer, then created production plans for the first "galvanized water pipes, soldered by induction, the first cold-drawn steel bars and the first rolled steel for special profiles that were imported into Brazil until then. He also invented support plates for rails... [and] sold the stock control of his organization a few years ago to devote himself mostly to researches about the second World War" (front flap).

Original Wrappers. 8vo. 99 pages. 21 cm. First edition. In Russian. A history of the Baranovichi Ghetto and the Koldychevo Camp. On the eve of the Holocaust, 12, 000 Jews lived in Baranovichi. Under Soviet rule (193941) , Jewish community organizations were disbanded and any kind of political or youth activity was forbidden. Some youth groups organized flight to Vilna, which was then part of Lithuania, and from there reached Palestine. The Hebrew Tarbut school became a Russian institution. A Jewish high school did continue to function, however. In the summer of 1940 Jewish refugees from western Poland who had found refuge in Baranovichi after September 1939 were deported to the Soviet interior. When Germans captured the city on June 27, 1941, 400 Jews were kidnapped, leaving no trace. A Judenrat was set up, headed by Joshua Izikzon. The community was forced to pay a fine of five kg. Of gold, ten kg. Of silver, and 1, 000, 000 rubles. The ghetto was fenced off from the outside on Dec. 12, 1941. The ghetto inhabitants suffered great hardship that winter, although efforts were made to alleviate the hunger. The Jewish doctors and their assistants fought to contain the epidemics. On March 4, 1942, the ghetto was surrounded. In a Selektion carried out by the Nazis to separate the "productive" from the "nonproductive", over 3, 000 elderly persons, widows, orphans, etc. , were taken to trenches prepared in advance and murdered. Resistance groups, organized in the ghetto as early as the spring of 1942, collected arms and sabotaged their places of work. Plans for rebellion were laid, but the uprising never came to pass, partly due to German subterfuge. In the second German Aktion on Sept. 22, 1942, about 3, 000 persons were murdered. On Dec. 17, 1942, another Aktion was carried out, in which more than 3, 000 persons were killed near Grabowce. Baranovichi was now declared judenrein . At the end of 1942 Jews were already fighting in groups among the partisans. A few survivors from the ghetto were still in some of the forced labor camps in the district, but most of them were liquidated in 1943. On July 8, 1944, when the city was taken by the Soviet forces, about 150 Jews reappeared from hiding in the forests. Later a few score more returned from the U. S. S. R. (EJ 2007) Koldychevo Camp (Koldyczewo) , forced labor camp in Belorussia, located 11 miles from Baranovichi, established by the Germans in late 1941. In November 1942 a crematorium was constructed in which some 600 people were incinerated. It later became an extermination camp in which Russians and Polish underground members were interned along with the Jews transferred from the surrounding ghettos of Baranovichi, Nowogrodek, Slonim , and others. Jews were separated from the other prisoners and the camp in the stables of what had once been a farm. Prior to the camp's liquidation on June 29, 1944, more than 22, 000 inmates were murdered and buried in 38 mass graves in and around the camp. A prisoner, Dr. Zelik Levinbrook, supplied medicine to the partisans with the help of a former patient. An active Jewish resistance, headed by Shlomo Kushnir, a former shoemaker, existed in Koldychevo. Its arms supply was meager: two guns, four grenades, and some acid. On the night of March 17, 1944, it succeeded in leading almost all the Jewish inmates out of the camp after killing ten Nazi guards and poisoning the guard dogs. Kushnir committed suicide when he was caught with 25 others. Seventy five prisoners survived. The rest joined the partisans in the forest. (EJ 2007) .

Publishers cloth. 8vo. 291 pages. 23 cm. First American edition. The acrimonious debate over British policy towards refugees from the Nazi régime has scarcely died down even now, some 60 years later. Bitter charges of indifference and lack of feeling are still levelled at politicians and civil servants, and the assertion is made that Great Britain's record on refugee matters is shabby and unworthy of its liberal traditions. Island Refuge is the definitive account of a largely unexplored and still highly controversial episode in twentieth-century history. (Publishers description) Subjects: Jews - Persecutions - Germany.

On the whole his findings show an abysmal reaction on the part of British newspapers to have little if any sympathy for the victims or an accurate understanding of the events in Germany at the time, with subtle yet recurring displays of anti-semitism, if not an outright open hostility to German-Jewish refugees.

1st edition, original paper wrappers. 8vo, iv (English) + 27 (Hebrew) pages. In Hebrew with additional English abstract and title page. The Eichmann trial was one of the most important events in pre-1967 Israel. The article attempts to compare the reactions of two witnesses to the trial, Hannah Arendt and Haim Gouri, to the proceedings. These writers represent two conflicting perspectives- a Jewish-universalist one on the one hand, and a Jewish-Israeli one on the other .Interestingly, the insight of both Arendt and Gouri played a role in subverting the prevalent attitudes toward the memory of the Holocaust in Israeli society. While Arendts assertions became a basis of a tendency to universalize the Holocaust, removing it from a specific Jewish context, Gouris observations led to a strong identification with Diaspora Jewry. The Eichmann trial and the new perceptions in its wake marked the beginning of the decline of the concept of Negation of the Diaspora and the acceptance of the Holocaust as a major identity-forming factor in Israeli society.
