1941Hardcover, 8vo, 138 pages, plates (1 double) portraits, 22 cm. Series: Europe under the Nazis; Variation: Europe under the Nazis. SUBJECT(S) : Descriptor: World War, 1939-1945 -- Netherlands. Bezettingen. Jong (19142005) was a Dutch historian. Born in Amsterdam into a secular socialist family, De Jong studied history in Amsterdam and started his career in 1938 as foreign editor of the anti-Nazi weekly De Groene Amsterdammer. Upon the German invasion in May 1940 De Jong and his wife managed to flee the European mainland, leaving behind his parents, sister, and twin brother none of whom survived the war. De Jong spent the war years in London, working for Radio Oranje, the voice of the Dutch government-in-exile. He also wrote four volumes on the events in the occupied Netherlands. In September 1945 De Jong was appointed head of the Netherlands State Institute for War Documentation, which had been founded in Amsterdam immediately after the liberation. In 1953 he earned his doctorate with a study of the German fifth column. In 1955 he was commissioned by the government to write the history of the Netherlands in World War II. Between 1969 and 1991 Het Koninkrijk der Nederlanden in de Tweede Wereldoorlog (The Kingdom of the Netherlands in World War II) was published in 14 volumes. Aside from his position as head of the RIOD, De Jong also gained recognition and respect in television appearances. He worked as a commentator on international current affairs and from 1960 to 1965 presented a series on the Netherlands during World War II. He always remained an assimilated, secular Jew. During the Six-Day War (1967) , however, he identified with the Israeli cause. De Jong became more and more a conscious Dutch Jew rather than a Dutchman of Jewish descent (Kristel in EJ 2010) .

1945Paper wrappers. 12mo. 16 pages. 20 cm. Fourth Supplement. In Dutch. Gedenckclanck was originally the name of a volume published in the Netherlands in 1626 which contains the well known hymnal, we go out together now, a celebration of Dutch independence and liberation. In the occupied Netherlands consecutive four part anthologies of illegal poetry, letters, and writings, all in the service of the resistance, were printed at the same underground press in Alphen aan den Rijn, and each collection was given the same title Gedenckclanck. Gedenckclanck 1940-1944 was printed in three parts, in the years 1944, 1944, and 1945, of lengths of 112, 176, and 68 pages respectively, in editions of 2200, 400, 200 respectively. The first volume was printed hastily, without corrections being made to the print run. The latter two volumes were reserved for the Royal House (presumably the Dutch Royal Family was allowed to obtain any type of literature even during the occupation) , prisoners in the camps, prisoners overseas, and those fighting in Free Dutch units elsewhere. Part four, entitled Gedenckclanck 1940-1945 was printed in the early spring of 1945. Four supplements, prepared during the occupation and which appeared one month after the liberation, were produced in very limited print runs. The pamphlet we have to offer is the last of the four in the series. Approximate translation from the title page recto: This little book was commenced after a presentation entitled "The Message of the Dead". / We go out together now! Radiant, young, happy. But above all grateful. / Closing with the farewell letter from a condemned man. / To the memory of Jaap Sickenga, shot by the Germans on May 11, 1942. This supplement to pt. 4 of the clandestinely published series of the same title contains letters and poems by or about Dutch victims of Nazi terror. Gedenckclanck first appeared in the autumn of 1944. They included only illegal poems, referring to the sacrifice of the dead and suffering in prisons and camps. The second Gedenckclanck offered an anthology of illegal poetry, from bundles and loose sheets of papers that had made the rounds. In the third Gedenckclanck illegal prose poetry was also included. Volume four appeared in the early spring of 1945. In the first months after liberation there appeared four 'supplements' also titled: Gedenckclanck. The compiler lectured in various places on 'The Message of the Dead ", after which a few small anthologies of illegal literature were offered. The mimeographed supplements, respectively: 26, 18, 31 and 16 page count. The first was dedicated to the sacrifice of the dead and suffering in prisons and camps. Nos. 2 and 4 contain only testimonies of martyrs. The third supplement is subtitled: Prayers.
