  • Remembering Tante Anna by Leslie Brent Although I Was at Bunce
    Remembering Tante Anna by Leslie Brent Although I was at Bunce Court school for only three and a half years the care, love and education I received there profoundly shaped the rest of my life. I became very close to Tante Anna (who we all called T.A.) in her old age and frequently read to her when she was virtually blind. And, on her death in 1960, her sisters asked me to give the oration at her cremation. It would be remiss of me not to thank, on behalf of all present here, the current owners and residents of Bunce Court, Julia and George Miller. It was their enthusiastic and loving support that allowed this event happened. We are massively grateful to them, and also to the other residents of Bunce Court. T.A. was a very remarkable woman. She had spent the years of World War I in Wisconsin, where she obtained her Master’s Degree, and where she had come under the influence of the Quakers. On her return to Germany she worked for the Quakers to provide food and clothing to thousands of starving and neglected children. By creating her co-educational boarding school in Herrlingen, near Ulm, she introduced the concept of “Reformpedagogik” into the German educational system, which had been incredibly rigid. Her school was run on very liberal, child-centred lines that had much in common with the schools of A.S. Neill’s Summerhill School in Suffolk and Dartington school in Devon. Rules were kept to a minimum and a high degree of self-discipline was expected of the children.

    ABSTRACT Title of Document: SEPARATION AND LOSS: SEQUENTIAL TRAUMATIZATION AND THE LOSS OF FAMILY LIFE EXPERIENCED AMONG THE CHILDREN OF THE KINDERTRANSPORTS. Matthew Christian Stahl, Master of Arts, 2014 Directed By: Professor Marsha Rozenblit, History Between December 1938 and September 1939, 10,000 Jewish children were evacuated from Nazi territory to the United Kingdom. Approximately ninety percent of these children were never reunited with their families. This thesis draws upon oral histories and memoirs of children from the Kindertransports in order to understand and analyze the traumas they experienced before fleeing from Nazi persecution and as a result of their separation from their parents as well as the factors that most influenced the long-term effects of this trauma. SEPARATION AND LOSS: SEQUENTIAL TRAUMATIZATION AND THE LOSS OF FAMILY LIFE EXPERIENCED AMONG THE CHILDREN OF THE KINDERTRANSPORTS By Matthew Christian Stahl Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland, College Park, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts 2014 Advisory Committee Professor Marsha Rozenblit, Chair Professor Jeffrey Herf Professor Gay Gullickson © Copyright by Matthew Christian Stahl 2014 ii Dedication This thesis is dedicated to my wife, Kristina Dagley Stahl, and to my children, Bethany Eureka Stahl and Liam Franklin Stahl. Kristy, thank you for being willing to move across the country with me from California to Maryland so that I could pursue my dream of attending graduate school and a career as an archivist. Thank you for putting up with the many long weekends and late nights that I spent writing and revising this work, and thank you for your love and support.
