1984Publishers cloth. 8vo. 179 pages. 22 cm. First American edition. With an afterword by Bruno Bettelheim; Je ne lui ai pas dit au revoir translated from the French by Ros Schwartz. Twenty-eight French men and women who lost one or both parents - and sometimes their entire families - in the Holocaust talk here for the first time about their devastating experiences. They were able to confide in Claudine Vegh not only because she was a psychiatrist-in-training, but because she herself had lost her father in the Holocaust, and had experienced similar suffering. In his afterward, Bruno Bettelheim discusses the role that mourning plays in coming to terms with the death of loved ones. For these children, mourning wasn't possible; they had to deny their feelings in order to survive. Although this denial allowed them to marry, have children, and hold jobs, it robbed them of the chance to grieve for their losses. At last, these interviews afforded the opportunity to mourn; and for those interviewed, as well as for the reader, they are an unforgettable experience.

1945First American Edition. Original stapled stiff green paper wrappers. 12mo, 94 pages. Holocaust era publication of church documents collected and edited by W. A. Visser 't Hooft; translated into English by Tilly Weinstock. "[I]t is not too soon to hear the witness which the Church in Holland has borne during these last years of suffering. For its message is not just meant for the Dutch people; the Church speaks as a member of the Church Universal. Its task during the war is to hold a particularly exposed outpost of the united front. And during this time of struggle it has received gifts which it wishes to pass on to the sister-churches also. The purpose of this publication, therefore, is to let the Church speak for itself. The main contents of these pages are documents in which the Church comforts, teaches, admonishes and protests. These documents have to be read carefully. They are precious, for those who composed them and those who read them for the pulpit were in great danger and risked much when giving this witness.

19601st separate edition. Original wrappers. 8vo. 42 pages, 25 cm. In Italian. Title translates to The Mortara Case: The First Centennial. The Mortara case was an Italian cause célèbre that captured the attention of much of Europe and North America in the 1850s and 1860s. It concerned the Papal States' seizure from a Jewish family in Bologna of one of their children, six-year-old Edgardo Mortara (August 27, 1851 - March 11, 1940) , on the basis of a former servant's testimony that she had administered emergency baptism to the boy when he fell sick as an infant. Mortara grew up as a Catholic under the protection of Pope Pius IXwho refused his parents' desperate pleas for his returnand eventually became a priest. The domestic and international outrage against the pontifical state's actions may have contributed to its downfall amid the unification of Italy (Wikipedia, 2018) . Reprinted from La Rassegna Mensile di Israel SUBJECTS: Edgar Mortara. OCLC lists only one copy worldwide (British Lib. ) (OCLC: 504045745) .
