On 11 March 1944 he Dr. Emunah Nachmany Gafny, Independent Researcher, Israel was liberated by partisans and in 1948 he arrived to Israel. He was one of the first settlers in Kibbutz Magen in the Northern Negev. During a visit to the Yad Vashem archive in 1995, he learned that Testimonies on Wiktor Gutsztadt, Chairman of the Judenrat in the Radomsko Ghetto, thousands of testimonies and documents in the archive, written Poland in Yiddish and in European languages, had never been translated. Mr. Tzahi Drory, Independent Researcher, Israel Carmin felt that this situation had to be rectified and succeeded in organizing a group of 130 volunteers who spoke the languages to translate these early testimonies into Hebrew. Over two decades of work Carmin and 11:45-12:00 Break his colleagues made more than 10,000 testimonies accessible to the Israeli researcher and reader, enabling them to tell the story of the Holocaust through the viewpoint of the survivors and to incorporate their experiences into the historical literature.

  • From Testimony to Story Video Interviews About Nazi Crimes
    Education with Testimonies FROM TESTIMONY TO STORY Video Interviews about Nazi Crimes. Perspectives and Experiences in Four Countries edited by Dagi Knellessen and Ralf Possekel The stories of Holocaust survivors and others who were persecuted by the Nazis are an invaluable resource for understanding what effect persecution had on victims and how they dealt with this experience over time. In recent decades, researchers in many countries began videotaping contemporary witnesses as they told their stories, allowing their voices to be heard, when personal encounters are no longer possible. In the interviews, biographical narratives and personal memories are used to document the mass crimes committed by the Nazis and also to illuminate how survivors processed these memories in their lifetime. This multi-faceted historical source poses special challenges to educational work. This volume reflects international developments, trends and debates about the videotaped contemporary witness interviews and their digital archives. Different interview collections and educational approaches from Israel, the Czech Republic, Poland and Germany are presented. These essays document the exchange that took place between education experts from these four countries as part of the series Entdecken und Verstehen. Bildungs- arbeit mit Zeugnissen von Opfern des Nationalsozialismus (“Discovering and Understanding: Educational Work with Testimonials from Victims of National Socialism”) that was initiated and organized by the Foundation EVZ in 2010 and 2011.

Title: Yizkor Books as Holocaust Grey Literature Authors: Faith Jones, New York Public Library and Gretta Siegel, Portland State University Abstract: Yizkor is a Hebrew word meaning ‘you will remember’, and Yizkor books are books that commemorate the vanished communities destroyed by the Holocaust. As the 60th anniversary of the liberation of the German concentration camps is commemorated this year, it seems fitting, with this conference being held in Europe, to call attention to this unique and interesting body of literature. Yizkor books present an historic but interesting type of grey literature, with significant modern day interest. While the Yizkor Book had its origins in the 13th century, it re- emerged early in the 20th Century as a tool for documenting the declining villages and Jewish communities of Eastern and Western Europe.

  • Introduction
    Introduction R a y B r a n d o n a n d W e n d y L o w e r Before the Second World War, the Jews of Ukraine constituted one of the largest Jewish populations in Europe.1 They were without a doubt the largest Jewish population within the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union.2 And between July 1940 and June 1941—af­ ter Stalin occupied the interwar Polish territories of eastern Gali­ cia and western Volhynia as well as the interwar Romanian territo­ ries of northern Bukovina and southern Bessarabia—the number of Jews in the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic (UkrSSR) rose to at least 2.45 million persons, thus making it for a brief period home to the largest Jewish population in Europe.3 Despite the size of Ukraine’s Jewish population, academics and laypersons alike have for over two generations tended to talk about the Holocaust in the Soviet Union, Poland, Romania, or Hungary, but not about the Holocaust in Ukraine, which is the subject of this book. The reason for this traditional approach is evident. Unlike any of the aforementioned countries, Ukraine from the mid-thir­ teenth until the mid-twentieth century was but an ensemble of disparate territories partitioned among several neighboring pow­ ers. Ukrainian efforts to establish a state in these lands in the aftermath of the First World War were thwarted by internecine factionalism as well as Polish national aspirations and Soviet rev­ olutionary ambitions. Between the Polish-Soviet peace of 1920 and the Nazi-Soviet pact of 1939, the lands of modern Ukraine were split among Poland (eastern Galicia and western Volhynia), Czechoslovakia (Transcarpathia), Romania (northern Bukovina and southern Bessarabia), and the Soviet Union.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Yiddish Songs of the Shoah A Source Study Based on the Collections of Shmerke Kaczerginski A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology by Bret Charles Werb 2014 Copyright © Bret Charles Werb 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Yiddish Songs of the Shoah A Source Study Based on the Collections of Shmerke Kaczerginski by Bret Charles Werb Doctor of Philosophy in Ethnomusicology University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Timothy Rice, Chair This study examines the repertoire of Yiddish-language Shoah (or Holocaust) songs prepared for publication between the years 1945 and 1949, focusing its attention on the work of the most influential individual song collector, Shmerke Kaczerginski (1908-1954). Although a number of initiatives to preserve the “sung folklore” of the Nazi ghettos and camps were undertaken soon after the end of the Second World War, Kaczerginski’s magnum opus, the anthology Lider fun di getos un lagern (Songs of the Ghettos and Camps), published in New York in 1948, remains unsurpassed to this day as a resource for research in the field of Jewish folk and popular music of the Holocaust period. ii Chapter one of the dissertation recounts Kaczerginski’s life story, from his underprivileged childhood in Vilna, Imperial Russia (present-day Vilnius, Lithuania), to his tragic early death in Argentina. It details his political, social and literary development, his wartime involvement in ghetto cultural affairs and the underground resistance, and postwar sojourn from the Soviet sphere to the West. Kaczerginski’s formative years as a politically engaged poet and songwriter are shown to have underpinned his conviction that the repertoire of salvaged Shoah songs provided unique and authentic testimony to the Jewish experience of the war.

  • 1 Avinoam J. Patt Honors Seminar: Responses to the Holocaust Fall
    1 Avinoam J. Patt Honors Seminar: Responses to the Holocaust Fall 2013 MW, 2:55-4:10pm [email protected] HON 383: Responses to the Holocaust COURSE DESCRIPTION This seminar explores both Jewish and non-Jewish responses to the Holocaust in an interdisciplinary manner through an examination of social, religious, theological, political, cultural, psychological, and literary responses to the Holocaust both during and after the Second World War. The seminar (1) focuses attention on the diversity of human responses to Nazi persecution, both Jewish and non-Jewish, and (2) facilitates a deeper understanding of the manner in which individuals and communities respond to extreme persecution in war and genocide both contemporaneously and in its aftermath. Students will examine the ways Jews sought to maintain religious observance under Nazi occupation, the moral and ethical dilemmas Jews confronted daily during the war, the manner in which resistance transcended narrowly defined “armed resistance” to encompass cases of spiritual, cultural, psychological, and philosophical resistance to persecution, attempts to document and historicize the war both under occupation and in its aftermath, the meaning of memory and memorialization, the use of literature and cultural creations as forms of resistance, the nature of psychological responses to trauma and persecution, and theological and religious explanations of the meaning of the Holocaust in its aftermath. Questions that will frame seminar discussions include: to what extent were contemporary Jewish religious
