Paper Wraps. 8vo. 16 pages. In German. Second Sequence (1924-1931) . . "Magazine for Demography and Statistics of the Jews. " Population statistics played and continue to play a special role in Jewish Studies because of the continuing movement of Jewish popluations around the world. Within the pages of the Zeitschrift can be found the first historical-sociological studies looking at the massive Jewish migrations at the close of the 19th Century. With the establishment in Berlin of the Bureau für Statistik der Juden (office for statistics of the Jews) in 1904, sociologists like Arthur Ruppin and the statisticians like the physician Jacob Segall had at their fingertips massive amounts of data for this purpose. Monthly, began in 1905, ceased in December 1931, 26 volumes published in all. SUBJECT(S) : Jews -- Population -- Periodicals. Jews -- Statistics -- Periodicals. Issued by the Bureau für Statistik der Juden. Cover is stained and worn with small tear in middle and bending at corners.

Semprún, Jorge:
The Long Voyage. Transl. from the French by Richard Seaver.
Gutes Ex.; Seiten gering nachgedunkelt. - Englisch. - Jorge Semprún Maura (* 10. Dezember 1923 in Madrid; † 7. Juni 2011 in Paris) war ein spanischer Schriftsteller. Sein literarisches Werk (meist in französischer Sprache geschrieben) ist gekennzeichnet vom Anschreiben gegen das Vergessen. Als ehemaliger Widerstandskämpfer in der französischen Résistance und gegen die Franco-Diktatur in Spanien blieb er, trotz aller politischen Wandlungen, der Moral des kollektiven Widerstands treu und brachte in seinen überwiegend autobiografischen Schriften eine humane Anklage gegen die Grausamkeiten von Exil, Krieg und Deportation zum Ausdruck. ... (wiki) // A lyrical, honest, and heartbreaking account of a Holocaust journey / Gasping for breath in a cattle truck occupied by 119 other men, a young Spaniard captured fighting with the French Resistance counts off the days and nights as the train rolls slowly but inexorably toward Buchenwald. On the five seemingly endless days of the journey, he has conversations that send him into daydreams about his childhood or set him fighting Resistance battles over again. He describes the temporary holding prison where the names of distant concentration camps are spoken of in whispers-their individual horrors discussed, rated, contemplated. In chilling detail, the trip with those 119 men-some fearful, some defiant-is evoked, along with his own confusion, anger, and bitter resignation. When at last the fantastic, Wagnerian gates to Buchenwald come into sight, the young Spaniard is left alone to face the camp. The Long Voyage represents both an internal and external journey for Jorge Semprun. It is a profound literary account, fierce and moving. … (Verlagstext) ISBN 0141180293

LAGONIE DES JUDEO-ESPAGNOLS
Softcover, 8vo, 131 pages, illustrations, 20 cm. In French. SUBJECT (S) : Descriptor: Sephardim -- History. Sefarades -- Histoire. Bibliography: pages 127-129. Discography: pages 130-131. Filmography: page 131. Sephiha (1923) is a Judeo-Spanish linguist and activist. Sephiha was born in Brussels to a Sephardi family from Istanbul. During the German occupation of Belgium, he was arrested in 1943 and deported to Auschwitz in September. He survived the death camp, where his father perished. After liberation, he resumed his studies in natural sciences, graduating in 1948 and working as a chemical engineer; however, he eventually decided to study and defend the linguistic and cultural heritage of his community. His understanding of the language is based on a clear distinction between its two fundamental modalities. Sephiha, who retired in 1991, was instrumental in securing academic acceptance and public support for the agonizing language he spoke and taught. Besides his scientific and popular publications, from 1972 he launched several calls for revival of the language and in 1979 founded the Association Vidas Largas for the Defense and Promotion of the Judeo-Spanish Language and Culture, which organizes educational work in Sephardi communities as well as the rescue of literary, musical, and architectural treasures. Judeo-Spanish has since been included among the recognized minority languages of France. In 2003, Sephiha inaugurated at the Auschwitz site a memorial in honor of the 160, 000 Judeo-Spanish victims of the Holocaust (Wilke in EJ 2007) . Bumped corners and edges. Wear to binding. Good condition. (Sef-30-8)

Setterington, Ken
Branded by the Pink Triangle
efore the rise of the Nazi party, Germany, especially Berlin, was one of the most tolerant places for homosexuals in the world. Activists such as Thomas Mann and Albert Einstein campaigned openly for the rights of gay men and women and tried to repeal the law against homosexuality. But that all changed when the Nazis came to power; existence for gay people became fear-filled. Raids, arrests, prison sentences and expulsions became the daily reality. When the concentration camps were built, homosexuals were imprisoned along with Jews and any other groups the Nazis wanted to suppress. The pink triangle sewn onto prison uniforms became the symbol of the persecution of homosexuals, a persecution that would continue for many years after the war. A mix of historical research, first-person accounts and individual stories brings this time to life for young readers. Stories of bravery in the face of inhuman cruelty, friendship found in the depths of despair in the camps and the perseverance of the human spirit will educate and inspire.155p. illus Book

Sevillias, Errikos [Trans. Nikis Stavroulakis]
Athens - Auschwitz
Moving personal testimony of the way the Jews were deported from Greece to concentration camps during the Nazi occupation. Errikos Sevillias was born in Athens in 1901 into a Sephardic family. He learned how to work in leather as a child and opened his own leather workshop when he was 16. From 1919 until 1923 he served in the Greek army, for three years fighting in Asia Minor. After the war he reopened his workshop, married, and had a daughter. Life, as he writes, "went along well" until he experienced "an inexplicable and unexpected great adventure," meaning Auschwitz. Errikos Sevillias was killed in Athens by a motorcycle in 1974, when he was 73 years old. The manuscript of this book was found among his papers after he died. He describes the appalling events at Auschwitz with extraordinary calm, saying merely that he couldn't understand "what they wanted in doing such an unjust and evil thing." His simple statements of events give the clearest possible image of the indescribable. The manuscript was translated by Nikos Stavroulakis, who also has provided an extremely useful historical outline of the Jewish presence in Greece with a description of the occupation and final solution. 125p.+ plates Book

MISHPAT AIKHMAN : DEVARIM SHE-ROIM MI-KAN LO ROIM MI-SHAM. HANNAH ARENDT AND HAIM GOURI: TWO PERCEPTIONS OF THE EICHMANN TRIAL.
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.

Dr. Andrew Sharf - head of the Department of Political History at the University of Bar-llan, Israel engages with the history of major and minor British newspapers and journals and their content as concerns the situation of German-Jews throughout the 1930s period. 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. Subjects: Press - Great Britain. Antisemitism - Germany. Jews - Germany - History. With Good dustjacket. Clean and fresh throughout. Very good condition in Good jacket. (HOLO2-95-2)

ISLAND REFUGE; BRITAIN AND REFUGEES FROM THE THIRD REICH, 1933-1939
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. Politieke vluchtelingen. Joden. Auswanderung. Drittes Reich. Einwanderung. Geschichte 1933-1939. Great Britain - Emigration and immigration - History.

Sherman, B. P.
BARANOVICHSKOE GETTO; KOLDYCHEVSKII LAGER SMERTI
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) . Subjects: Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) -- Belarus -- Baranavichy. Jewish ghettos -- Belarus -- Baranavichy. Concentration camps -- Belarus -- Koldychevo. World War, 1939-1945 -- Atrocities.
