1946563Paris, Arthème Fayard, 1946. Édition originale. Grand album de 22 x 28 cm, 112 (2) pp. Relié demi-cuir noir à coins, dos à 5 nerfs ornés de pointillés et traits dorés, nom d'auteur et titre en doré. Plats marbrés. Couverture originale conservée. Tranchefile. Ouvrage illustré d'une cinquantaine de dessins en noir et blanc de l'auteur. Cet ouvrage est un puissant récit autobiographique illustré de l'artiste français Jean Bernard-Aldebert (connu sous le nom de Bernard-Aldebert, 1909-1974), relatant sa captivité dans cinq camps de concentration nazis différents entre 1944 et 1945. Après avoir bâti une carrière d'illustrateur, de caricaturiste et de satiriste, l'artiste voit son destin basculer tragiquement en novembre 1943. Pour avoir caricaturé Hitler sous les traits d'un chimpanzé dans le numéro du 1er août de l'hebdomadaire humoristique français *Ric et Rac*, Bernard-Aldebert est arrêté par la Gestapo. Il est ensuite transféré en janvier 1944 au camp d'internement de Royallieu-Compiègne, puis successivement à Buchenwald, Mauthausen, Gusen I et enfin Gusen II, où il demeure jusqu'à sa libération le 5 mai 1945. Le texte et les illustrations de l'auteur dévoilent les horreurs subies par les prisonniers dans ces camps : travaux forcés brutaux, famine, tortures sadiques et violences diverses. Si Bernard-Aldebert était surtout connu pour des caricatures au style léger et de charme, les images présentées ici versent dans un tout autre registre. Elles rappellent son style habituel, mais se révèlent bien plus dépouillées, sombres et austères, comme un reflet des émotions des personnages qui y apparaissent. Le texte est accompagné, presque systématiquement sur la page en regard, d'une reproduction en noir et blanc d'un dessin original de l'artiste, pour un total de 50 images. Celles-ci sont issues d'une série de croquis dessinés par Bernard-Aldebert peu après sa libération ; ils offrent, encore aujourd'hui, un témoignage visuel et émotionnel inestimable.
1st edition. Original illustrated paper wrappers, 12mo, 64 pages. 4.75x7 inches. Cover shows a miserable prisoner flanked by ball & chains of swastika and hammer & sickle, behind whom hover Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, and front and center The Pope. "Jehovah's Witnesses were subjected to intense persecution under the Nazi regime. The Nazis targeted Jehovah's Witnesses because they were unwilling to accept the authority of the state, because of their international connections, and because they were strongly opposed to both war on behalf of a temporal authority and organized government in matters of conscience. Within months of the Nazi takeover, regional governments, primarily those of Bavaria and Prussia, initiated aggressive steps against Jehovah's Witnesses, breaking up their meetings, ransacking and then occupying their local offices. By April 1, 1935, the Reich and Prussian Minister of the Interior ordered the responsible local officials to dissolve the Watchtower Society. Many actions of Jehovah's Witnesses antagonized Nazi authorities. While Witnesses contended that they were apolitical and that their actions were not anti-Nazi, their unwillingness to give the Nazi salute, to join party organizations or to let their children join the Hitler Youth, their refusal to participate in the so-called elections or plebiscites, and their unwillingness to adorn their homes with Nazi flags made them suspect. A special unit of the Gestapo compiled a registry of all persons believed to be Jehovah's Witnesses. Gestapo agents infiltrated Bible study meetings" (USHMM 2016) No copies listed in OCLC.

SERIES: Dos Poylishe Yidntum ; ; bd. 70; Variation: Poylishe Yidntum ; ; bd. 70. Born in Warsaw, Shatzky [1893-1956] received his doctorate in 1922 for a dissertation on 19th-century Polish-Jewish history. During World War I he served as an officer in the Polish Legion. From 1913 on he wrote Polish articles and reviews on Jewish literary and historical subjects. He came to write mainly in Yiddish after 1922, the year he settled in the U. S. Where he was one of the founders of the U. S. Section of YIVO. From 1929 until his death he was librarian of the New York State Psychiatric Institute. Shatzky's range was extraordinarily wide: Spinoza, psychiatry, theater, music, folklore, literature, language, and other areas. His principal field, however, was Eastern European Jewish history, and his major work was his history of Warsaw Jewry. He was an indefatigable and often querulous reviewer of scholarly works; the quality and accuracy of his own historical scholarship has often been questioned.
