Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Ruth Ravina' s story is one of childhood under duress. She survived hunger, cold, solitude, boredom, and life-threatening situations. Born on April 7, 1937 in Warsaw, she was raised in Kozienice. In 1940 a ghetto was established in Kozienice, where Ruth was forced to witness executions. Escaping the ghetto in the fall of 1942, she survived three forced labor camps in Poland - Pionki, Skarzysko-Kamienna and Czestochowa - with her mother and her cousin Sarah. Mainly hidden, Ruth was in constant fear of being caught and killed as children were not allowed in those camps. Her father and most of her extended family perished in the Holocaust. Only she, her mother and her cousins Sarah and Rose survived.Although Ruth' s ' Invisible Holocaust' , the work transcends the memoir form in its presentation of the author' s metatexts, her own imperiled wartime childhood. Secondary to Ruth' s story, this material nevertheless complicates and intensifies the narrative without relativizing the Holocaust. This dialogue between Jew and German has not taken place before in Holocaust memoirs. It shows the brutality children suffer in war, regardless of the political position they are forced to occupy. Ruth survived hunger, cold, solitude, boredom and threats to life. Born in 1937, she was raised in Kozienice, and witnessed executions in the ghetto there. After escaping she survived three forced labor camps in Poland. By presenting the author's own childhood in the war we see a dialogue between Jew and German unique to the Holocaust memoir genre.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. In 1935, when she was fourteen years old, Ilse Gross fled Germany. Alone. Seventeen years later, she published her audacious first novel Fire in the Sun. Her pen name: Kathrine Talbot. Her German Jewish identity she carefully concealed. Becoming Kathrine Talbot explores the life of a refugee who lost her parents and sister in the Holocaust and who resisted telling their stories until it was almost too late.

She marries English painter Kit Barker and clashes with macho bohemians. She rises to literary fame and comes back down to obscurity. As Ilse Barker, she shares a close friendship with American poet Elizabeth Bishop. In their extraordinary letters the two women cover everything: from the mundane to the traumatic.Becoming Kathrine Talbot fuses literary biography and concise accounts of the German Jewish refugee experience in Britain. To scholars in Jewish studies, modern fiction, and life writing, this book offers an original case study. To a general audience, it presents an engrossing tale of creativity, joy, and pain.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. When Nicholas Winton met a friend in Prague in December 1938, he was shocked by the plight of thousands of refugees and Czech citizens desperate to flee from the advancing German army. A British organization had been set up to help the adults, but who would save the children? Winton felt he could not walk away. He set up a makeshift office and in just three weeks interviewed thousands of distraught parents who had the courage to part with their children and send them alone to England. Armed with their details and photos, he returned to London to convince the Home Office of the urgency of the situation. He knew he was working against time. His supreme efforts resulted in eight train-loads bringing 669, mainly Jewish, children to London. Winton has been a remarkable humanitarian all his life. After the war, wishing to be involved with the rehabilitation of Europe's refugees, he worked for international organizations. He retired early, settled in Maidenhead and devoted himself to charitable works for which he was honoured with the MBE in 1983. This is his story. Nicholas Winton saved the lives of many Jewish people during World War II. He has been honoured on many occasions for his humanitarian efforts. In this biography the authors describe his extraordinary life and times. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Here, Letchworth-born Yanky Fachler explores a short-lived (1939 1971) provincial Jewish congregation that boasted a communal infrastructure typical of much larger communities. Based during the war years around an estate built by Abba Bornstein, most of the community returned to London after the Second World War. The centre of gravity shifted to what former Talmud Torah headmaster Harry Leitner describes as the two pyramid houses on Sollershott East the Sassoon/Feuchtwanger and Fachler homes. Letchworth was home to the world-famous private Judaica library assembled by David Sassoon. His son, Rabbi Solomon Sassoon, made sure that Jewish children from across the religious spectrum attended the Talmud Torah educational programme after regular school hours. Several rabbinical luminaries were associated with Letchworth, including the communal rabbi, Asher Feuchtwanger, Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks, Rabbi Eliyahu Dessler, and Rabbi Eliyahu Lapian.Fachler describes a unique community where the orthodox coexisted harmoniously with the non-orthodox, Ashkenazi Jews lived side-by-side with Baghdadi Jews, and wealthy families rubbed shoulders with working class families.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Reverend Malcolm Weisman OBE played a unique role in Anglo Jewry for nearly three quarters of a century. As an RAF Chaplain from 1957 and a Barrister at Law from 1961, he drove his car the length and breadth of the country and travelled the world. At every opportunity he sought out pockets of Jews in isolated places and we learn how, as the Chief Rabbi s Minister for Small Communities (a role he virtually carved out for himself) his insight and empathy helped them to lead a fulfilled, Jewish, spiritual and social life, far away from the Jewish mainstream. Malcolm tells his story of growing up in Stoke Newington in the 1930s and 40s, of evacuation, of his teenage years learning with Rabbi Solomon Schonfeld, and of his law studies and pranks at Oxford University. He relates how National Service led him to become a minister, and how his non-military flock grew from a dozen people in Peterborough to many thousands, as he crisscrossed the country to dozens of communities on an almost daily basis from Aberdeen to Jersey and Bristol to Norwich--each centre having its own history and its own struggles. We learn of his sustained interfaith activity, military connections and international travels with NATO and the Commonwealth Jewish Council and his meetings with Royalty. There is heartfelt testimony from those faraway places, of their great regard and love for Malcolm, and the way that he changed their lives. Malcolm s dedicated activity in all these spheres makes for a fascinating read. For 75 years Weisman travelled the country and the world as the Minister for Small Communities. He sought out Jews in isolated places and helped them lead fulfilled Jewish lives. We learn of his interfaith activity, military connections and travels with NATO and the Commonwealth Jewish Council and his meetings with Royalty.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. At the end of the twentieth century, the world seemed to rediscover Holocaust survivors. Ceremonies commemorating the 50th anniversary of World War II-era events offered occasions for reflection about the war, its heroes and its victims. In the US, broad interest in the Holocaust was sparked by two cultural phenomena: the 1993 opening of the US Holocaust Memorial Museum and the film "Schindler's List". The collapse of communism, the opening of archives in eastern Europe and the approach of the millennium - and with it a desire to 'clean the slate' - also sparked a series of confrontations with the past. Among those confrontations was an extraordinary focus on the material losses and injuries suffered by Nazi victims. Class-action lawsuits filed in American courts against European governments and enterprises, improvised commissions, national historical reviews and international conferences attempted, at century's end, to deal with the material, historical, legal and moral issues stemming from the Holocaust.These initiatives built on groundwork laid in 1951, when Israel and an ad hoc consortium of voluntary Jewish organizations received an invitation to negotiate with West Germany for 'moral and material amends' for Nazi-era damages.The consortium became the Conference on Jewish Material Claims Against Germany (known as the Claims Conference). Interest in the Holocaust was sparked by two cultural phenomena: opening of the US Holocaust Memorial Museum and the film "Schindler's List". The collapse of communism, the opening of archives in eastern Europe and the approach of the millennium - and with it a desire to 'clean the slate' - also sparked a series of confrontations with the past.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Greek Jewry has a unique history in Europe. Greek Judaism is possibly the oldest faith on the continent. The Hellenized Romaniotes, the Sephardim from the western Mediterranean and the Ashkenazim from central Europe created a mosaic of communities across the country, each one with its own fascinating history and tradition. Thessaloniki, the ' Jerusalem of the Balkans', Ioannina, the capital of the Romaniotes, Larissa, Volos, Patra, Crete, Corfu, Rhodes, Athens, and many others. These Jewish communities, together but also individually, are an integral part of the Greece's rich history. This pioneering book presents a unique detailed historical overview of the history of Greek Jews from antiquity to the present day, including the period of the Shoah when nearly 90% of the community was annihilated. Beyond this historical landscape, the book also highlights the contributions of Greek Jews to the economic, cultural, intellectual and political life of the country, and reveals the golden times and the darkest days in the coexistence between Jews and Christians in Greece. Greek Judaism is possibly the oldest surviving faith in Europe. The Romaniotes, Sephardim and Ashkenazim had communities across the country, each with its own history and traditions. Karababas presents an overview of their history from antiquity to now, he also highlights their contributions to economic, cultural, intellectual and political life.

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. This is the biography, written with the full cooperation of his family and of leading personalities in the world of marching bands, of one of the most significant figures in the American band movement: Frank Simon. Frank Simon was John Philip Sousa's assistant conductor and cornet soloist. In the 1930s and 1940s, he took over Sousa's mantle and became one of America's most popular radio personalities and then one of its principal musical educators, honored by his profession and by universities all over the nation. Frank Simon was a charming, funny, sometimes difficult personality whose worst fault, according to his son Joseph, was 'He didn't live long enough.' This is his story: the warm, homespun story of the son of poor immigrant parents from Middletown, Ohio who became one of the most important names in American music.

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. This is a record of the achievements of Sir Sidney Hamburger in the Jewish community of Manchester, the City of Salford and the North-West region. As chairman of the Planning and Finance Committees of Salford City Council, leader of the Labour Group on the City Council and mayor of Salford during 1968-69, he played a leading role in the post-war reconstruction of the city. As chairman of the North Western Regional Health Authority between 1973 and 1982, he presided over the reorganization of the National Health Service in the region. As a communal activist and a leading Zionist, Sir Sidney steered the Jewish community of Manchester through the social and political upheavals of the post-war years. In all his achievements he derived his idealism from an Orthodox Judaism to which he was strictly committed. It is also a study of leadership in provincial Anglo-Jewry. The book argues that civic eminence was the essential ingredient of a communal leadership through which the community managed its power relations with the gentile city.It seeks in other ways to suggest the manner in which the Jewishness of a civit leader influenced the ways in which he saw and exercised his secular authority. Finally, it is an exploration of the collective identity of a Jewish generation born in Britain to parents of Eastern European origin. It suggests the way in which the legacy of the Jewish past was successfully integrated into the processes of assimilation and political eductioan which led a second generation into the mainstream of British politics. This is a study in the issue of leadership in British Jewish history. Concentrating on the life of Sir Sidney Hamburger, it provides a contextual zed study of British Jewish social and political history from the 1930s onwards.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. This is an anthology of largely unpublished work written by Jewish refugees who came to the UK in the 1930s, fleeing from the threat of Nazism. The idea for this collection was inspired by the story that the author's grandmother, herself a refugee, had written entitled, "The Portrait". The anthology is of a highly personal nature. It brings together writings by ordinary people who describe their day-to-day experiences of living under the Nazi regime, or recount their impressions of their "new life" in England. They describe the trauma of living in Nazi-occupied Germany and how events affected everyday living, whilst worrying about events elsewhere. Through this collection of letters and written extracts we, as Jews and non-Jews, can gain an understanding of how historical events during the Holocaust shaped the lives of ordinary people struggling to survive in extraordinary circumstances.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. "Till First Morning Light" is an autobiographical novel by a survivor of the Holocaust, the core of which is truth and the shell imagination. The story takes place in three countries - Hungary, Austria and Germany - during the years of Nazi rule. The story depicts a cross-section of Hungarian Jewry, whose bitter fate ended one year after the battle of Stalingrad and three months before the invasion of Normandy by the Allied forces. Lyrically told, the story moves forwards and backwards - associative and not chronological, the past and the present mixed together.The book expresses the meeting between Holocaust and humour. The characters are honest and innocent people, happy and angry, who quarrel and conciliate, love and marry, laugh and joke, up until the final moments of their lives. They are people plucked from their homes, from their work, from their children and their schools, the flames of their lives extinguished before their time. Between all the characters and the plot there is a principal character, the mother of the narrator.With her courage, her desire to live and her love for family she succeeds in bringing her children to the shores of safety, even if the father of the family remains behind in the death camp Bergen-Belsen.Time after time she confronts the angel of death. She prevails throughout all these confrontations and the angel of death withdraws. An autobiographical novel by a survivor of the Holocaust. The story takes place in three countries - Hungary, Austria and Germany - during the years of Nazi rule. It expresses the meeting between Holocaust and humour.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Born in 1931 to a secular Jewish family in Poland, Irit Amiel grew up in the city of Czestochowa with its significant Jewish community of 30,000. She survived the Second World War having escaped from the ghetto and living under false Aryan papers, in various places. In the autumn of 1945 and at the age of 14, she set on a brave journey to the Middle East. She escaped from Europe via illegal smuggling routes and displaced persons camps in Germany, Italy, and Cyprus, finally reaching Eretz Israel in December 1947. She settled in a kibbutz and participated in the joint effort of building the country with native Israelis and Shoah survivors. There she met the love of her life, a charming Israeli Palmachnik of Moroccan heritage, Chuzy Amiel. Together they started a new life and raised a family. Only when her grandchildren reached their teens was she ready to tell her story, understanding her experiences are unique and that the passage of time will erase the memories of yesterday. Irit talks to herself throughout the book, and in her unique style of writing each chapter is both part of the whole and an individual story at the same time. In this way her individual voice becomes the voice of her generation. [Subject: Holocaust Studies, Israeli Studies, Immigration, Memoir] Born in 1931 to a secular Polish Jewish family, Irit survived WWII by escaping the ghetto and living under false Aryan papers. In 1945 she fled Europe via illegal smuggling routes and reached Eretz Israel.

Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. Examining the historical and theological relationship between Judaism and Christianity, this work puts forward a new theory as to the psychological roots of anti-Semitism. Rather than seeing the Oedipal Complex as the pivotal impulse behind the persecution of the Jews, Professor Sheleff proposes that the Rustum Complex which postulates adult hostility towards youth, provides a better explanation. He illustrates his theory with an in-depth comparison of the central events of the Old and New Testaments: the Akedah God's command to Abraham to sacrifice his son Issac; and the Crucifixion God's decision to sacrifice his own son, Jesus. Examining the historical and theological relationship between Judaism and Christianity, this work puts forward a new theory as to the psychological roots of anti-Semitism.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Rosemary Schonfeld grew up as the daughter of a Czech immigrant in post-war UK and Canada, unaware of her father's Jewish identity and of what really happened to his absent relatives. In adulthood she began to feel compelled to find out whether Relly, who had been married to her father's brother and survived Auschwitz, was still alive. Tracing and finding Relly were both significant turning points in Rosemary's life. Relly was an exceptional person who lived a full, rich life without bitterness despite losing her entire family. She enriched the lives of all who knew her immensely, and Rosemary explains the incredible honour she felt when Relly welcomed her as her "long lost niece." Over a ten year period, from 2000 to Relly's death in 2010, Rosemary visited her regularly in Sydney. Through conversations with her the author started to understand not only what happened to her father, grandparents and uncles, but also began to understand the many impacts on herself, and therefore others, of being a second-generation Holocaust survivor. The number of Holocaust survivors is steadily diminishing, and many of the second generation feel a deep responsibility to give the Holocaust a contemporary relevance. Finding Relly explores the impact of the Holocaust in both the past and present, revealing how its insidious presence threatened to completely derail Rosemary's life. There is a danger of the Holocaust being relegated to the distant past, Finding Relly will help it keep its contemporary relevance Autobiographical story of how a member of the Third Generation discovered her family's past, found her Survivor Aunt in Australia and what the journey meant to her.
