Nurses and Midwives in Nazi Germany
Downloaded by [New York University] at 03:18 04 October 2016 Nurses and Midwives in Nazi Germany This book is about the ethics of nursing and midwifery, and how these were abrogated during the Nazi era. Nurses and midwives actively killed their patients, many of whom were disabled children and infants and patients with mental (and other) illnesses or intellectual disabilities. The book gives the facts as well as theoretical perspectives as a lens through which these crimes can be viewed. It also provides a way to teach this history to nursing and midwifery students, and, for the first time, explains the role of one of the world’s most historically prominent midwifery leaders in the Nazi crimes.

Holocaust Glossary
Holocaust Glossary A ● Allies: 26 nations led by Great Britain, the United States, and the Soviet Union that opposed Germany, Italy, and Japan (known as the Axis powers) in World War II. ● Antisemitism: Hostility toward or hatred of Jews as a religious or ethnic group, often accompanied by social, economic, or political discrimination. (USHMM) ● Appellplatz: German word for the roll call square where prisoners were forced to assemble. (USHMM) ● Arbeit Macht Frei: “Work makes you free” is emblazoned on the gates at Auschwitz and was intended to deceive prisoners about the camp’s function (Holocaust Museum Houston) ● Aryan: Term used in Nazi Germany to refer to non-Jewish and non-Gypsy Caucasians. Northern Europeans with especially “Nordic” features such as blonde hair and blue eyes were considered by so-called race scientists to be the most superior of Aryans, members of a “master race.” (USHMM) ● Auschwitz: The largest Nazi concentration camp/death camp complex, located 37 miles west of Krakow, Poland. The Auschwitz main camp (Auschwitz I) was established in 1940. In 1942, a killing center was established at Auschwitz-Birkenau (Auschwitz II). In 1941, Auschwitz-Monowitz (Auschwitz III) was established as a forced-labor camp. More than 100 subcamps and labor detachments were administratively connected to Auschwitz III. (USHMM) Pictured right: Auschwitz I. B ● Babi Yar: A ravine near Kiev where almost 34,000 Jews were killed by German soldiers in two days in September 1941 (Holocaust Museum Houston) ● Barrack: The building in which camp prisoners lived. The material, size, and conditions of the structures varied from camp to camp. -
A Compendium of Good Practices
1 Education Campaigning Showcases 20 powerful education initiatives and programmes developed to fight antisemitism, from across the world of European football. CompendiumRemembrance and A Commemoration of good practices Team Building Awards 2 What are you reading ? This Compendium of good practices showcases 20 power- ful education initiatives and programmes, developed to fight antisemitism, from across the world of European football. The Compendium is not the definitive list of all noteworthy initiatives, nor is it an evaluation of a selection of programmes which are considered to be the best which exist; its aim is, rather, to highlight some of the existing practices - from workshops to commemoration plaques and remembrance trips to online campaigns – in the hope they might spark interest and motivate clubs, associations, fan groups and other stakeholders within or associated with the football community to develop their own practices. The initiatives were selected as a result of research conducted by a group of eight researchers and experts from across Europe who were all part of the Changing the Chants project. They conducted desk research and interviewed stake- holders connected to these initiatives. As a result, for every initiative the Compendium provides project background and context and an overview of what took place. Due to the limited scope of this Compendium, it has not been possible to analyse all these good practices in great depth and, as such, readers of this Compendium are invited and encouraged to seek out further information where further detail has not been provided. Categorization The practices have been categorised against five overarching themes: Campaigning (1), Education (2), Remembrance and com- memoration (3), Network building (4) and Awards (5). -

EXILE AND EMIGRATION: THE SURVIVAL OF “GERMAN CULTURE” Introduction In 1941, the Hungarian ambassador in Washington paid a courtesy call to the State Department, since Nazi Germany had forced his country to declare war against the United States. It turned out to be a very civilized meeting indeed and after the ambassador, following the rules of diplo- macy, had fulŠlled his somewhat delicate mission, the secretary of state politely asked him to sit down so that the two of them might take the rare opportunity for a good talk over crackers and a glass of brandy. The following conversation ensued. “I cannot hide from you, Mr. Ambassador, how much I regret that the Hungarian Republic has decided to wage war against my country, the United States of America!” “Sir,” the ambassador replied, “please believe me when I say how much I personally resent this decision. -

Auschwitz – Strukturen Und Methoden Des Organisierten Terrors
Auschwitz – Strukturen und Methoden des organisierten Terrors Texte und schematische Darstellungen für den Unterricht Die Textquellen "KZ-Augenzeugenberichte" (und teilweise die oben genannten Folien) waren Basis eines eintägigen Workshops des Verfassers im Mai 1995 mit Schülerinnen und Schülern des Obergymnasiums zum Thema "Auschwitz – Strukturen und Methoden des organisierten Terrors". Der Tag sollte die Abwegigkeit aller "Auschwitzlügen" aufzeigen und Auschwitz in das System des deutschen "Lagerstaates" einordnen, aber zugleich die Besonderheiten und das Unvergleichbare hervorheben. Am Beispiel der deutschen Konzentrationslager sollten die Teilnehmerinnen und Teilnehmer Instrumente des organisierten Terrors in einem totalitären System kennen lernen. Die schematischen Darstellungen sind als Projektionsfolien im Geschichtsunterricht des Verfassers an Maturaklassen der Kantonsschule Reussbühl entwickelt (Ausnahme: "Der Führerstaat") und eingesetzt worden. Sie widerspiegeln den Wissensstand Mitte der 1990er Jahre. Hans-Rudolf Burri, Dr. phil. [email protected] Inhalt • Leben und Sterben im deutschen KZ.

PERPETRATORS & POSSIBILITIES: HOLOCAUST DIARIES, RESISTANCE, AND THE CRISIS OF IMAGINATION by ERYK EMIL TAHVONEN Under the Direction of Jared Poley ABSTRACT This thesis examines the way genocide leaves marks in the writings of targeted people. It posits not only that these marks exist, but also that they indicate a type of psychological resistance. By focusing on the ways Holocaust diarists depicted Nazi perpetrators, and by concentrating on the ways language was used to distance the victim from the perpetrator, it is possible to see how Jewish diarists were engaged in alternate and subtle, but nevertheless important, forms of resistance to genocide. The thesis suggest this resistance on the part of victims is similar in many ways to well-known distancing mechanisms employed by perpetrators and that this evidence points to a “crisis of imagination” – for victims and perpetrators alike – in which the capability to envision negation and death, and to identify with the “Other” is detrimental to self-preservation. -

Professional Lighting for the Performing Arts Portfolio Showbook (Abstract) Light Illuminates; but It Does a Lot More Than This
professional lighting for the performing arts Portfolio Showbook (abstract) Light illuminates; but it does a lot more than this. Light is like a building material; it models shapes, it transforms space without moving it, it allows the space to be designed and it defines functions without changing the architectural structure. Light is a means of communication; the intensity, the colour, the shades, the transparencies, the movements, the effects and the reflections. It directs attention to objects, to people and to their movements. Skilful use of light can highlight and enhance and a scenography and enrich the expressive dialogue, in architecture, on stage, in TV and Cinema studios. The following pages highlight a selection of Spotlight installations from around the world. Thank you to the many lighting designers, theatre consultants, architects, distributors, and installers who have chosen Spotlight as a partner for these and many other lighting projects. Since 1969 Spotlight has been committed to quality and innovation. We are all so very proud that our technology has proven to be a valuable asset in realizing your creative vision.
