Offprint. Original paper wrappers. 8vo. Pages 187-196 (ie. 10 pages) ; 24 cm. Includes additional title page in Hebrew. Abraham J. Peck, born in a DP camp in Landsberg, Germany, is a prolific Holocaust scholar, professor, and former advisor to Elie Wiesel. A brief history of the study of DP camps and of the lives of Holocaust survivors after the war. Precious little scholarly attention has been given to these areas. The reasons for such a state of affairs are numerous, ranging from the previous general inattention paid to the Holocaust (a phenomenon now corrected perhaps to excess) , to the problem, especially in America, of linguistic competency among graduate students and even accomplished scholars, to the very real problem of artificial periodization in which the twin pillars of Holocaust and Redemption allow little room for self-standing research areas between them. Interestingly, there appears to be a typo in this offprint. Division B of the Eighth World Congress of Jewish Studies was The History of the Jewish People. Division A was The Period of the Bible. Given the pagination and subject, this was likely part of Division B. SUBJECT(S) : DP Camps, Holocaust, Jewish studies. One stain that does not affect text. Slight toning. Very minimal edgewear.

Original Boards. 8vo. 123 pages. 22 cm. Illustrated. First edition. Includes two black and white period photographs. In Commemoration of the 20th Anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto by one of the Leaders of the Uprising. Succinctly and powerfully recounts the experiences of the author, a founding member of the Jewish Military Union, and important witness during the trial of Nazi criminal Adolf Eichmann. (EJ 2007) Because the author was a leader of a major Jewish political party in Poland he is able to give us an understanding of the historical and social conditions that preceded the holocaust and gave it its impetus. Because he is a trained psychiatrist, we get illuminating insights into the behavior of the individuals and the masses, both heroic and inhumanly brutal, that determined the tragic destiny of the Jews throughout Europe.
