Prominent educators, researchers, and practitioners gathered to consider the potential of Holocaust memorialization and memory work in countering antisemitism and other forms of discrimination as well as the strengthening of democratic values and processes. Participants explored various teaching methodologies and methods in higher education and assessed a number of innovative civic initiatives. This book gathers the contributions of conference speakers to instigate further discussion on this important issue when antisemitism has been on the rise in Europe and beyond. For a Budapest-based human and minority rights institution focusing, among other things, on Jewish life and antisemi- tism, this initiative is of crucial importance at a time when the Hungarian state and society struggle to come to terms with their roles in the Hungarian Holocaust and the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Hungarian Jews and Roma. On the occasion of the seventi- eth anniversary of the Holocaust in Hungary it has become clear that there are divergent, if not antagonistic, memories and narratives which are often highly politicized. It is exactly these events that focus on existing practices of effective Holocaust education and memo- ry work that model and inspire possible ways forward in a society confronting its past.

Landmesser’s striking photographic image is a dramatic illustration of how individuals can resist oppression. 2014 marks the seventieth anniversary of the Holocaust in Hungary. CEU has organ- ized several commemorative events, includ- ing the conference on which this volume is based. An example of how CEU is a pioneer in the teaching of Holocaust studies in a glob- al context is its hosting of the Shoah Foun- dation’s Visual History Archive of Holocaust survivors. Another example is CEU’s training of Hungarian and Polish secondary school teachers and faculty from other universities in teaching about the Holocaust. The CEU Center for Teaching and Learning focuses on digital initiatives as a new way of teaching traumatic histories, and it has pioneered a course with Smith College in Massachusetts, US, on the topic of gendering the Holocaust. The aim of the Holocaust education conference was to show how critical peda- gogy can teach students how to follow Au- gust Landmesser’s example and honor his legacy of resistance. During the conference participants shared their teaching, research, and memorialization practices with one an- 8 | The Future of Holocaust Memorialization INTRODUCTON: THE FUTURE OF HOLOCAUST MEMORIALIZATION AndreA Pető and education, and to do so in an interdisci- Department of Gender Studies, plinary way.

Political persecution in the Third Reich. Documents and reports from Hamburg in German and English. Horneburg Verlag, Schwetzingen 1998. 272 Seiten, 32 Fotos, 65 Dokumente, 19,80 Mark. Till Bastian: Niemandszeit. Deutsche Portraits zwischen Kriegsende und Neubeginn. Beck'sche Reihe, München 1999. 200 Seiten, 25 Abbildungen, 19,90 Mark. Für viele Überlebende der nationalsozialistischen Gewalttaten war das Jahr 1945 zwar das Jahr ihrer Rettung, aber nur bedingt auch das Jahr ihrer Befreiung. Denn nun begann für sie der meist vergebliche Versuch, das erlittene Geschehen zu vergessen oder in sich selbst zu verschließen, um in einer allzu rasch zur Normalität zurückkehrenden Außenwelt das gerettete Leben überhaupt weiterführen zu können. Nicht zuletzt deshalb vermochten viele Überlebende erst im Alter ihre Berichte aufzuzeichnen. Die Autorin einer bruchstückhaft rekonstruierten Chronik der eigenen Familie war am 8. Mai 1945 sieben Jahre alt, lebte bei einer Pflegefamilie und hatte an die Schrecken, die sie bereits erlitten hatte, keine Erinnerung mehr. Jahrzehnte später beginnt sie damit, sich aus zufällig überlieferten Dokumenten, alten Akten und verstreuten Fotografien ein lückenhaftes Bild vom Schicksal ihrer Eltern und der eigenen Vorgeschichte zusammenzusetzen. Sie findet heraus, dass ihre Eltern im August 1935 heiraten wollten, aber vom Hamburger Standesbeamten abgewiesen wurden, weil die Mutter Jüdin war. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt gab es zwar noch keine formale juristische Absicherung für das Verbot von "Mischehen", aber die Schlinge war schon gelegt. Im April 1935 hatte das Reichsinnenministerium den Begriff der "Mischehe" von bisher konfessionell gemischten Ehen zu solchen von Personen unterschiedlicher "rassischer Zugehörigkeit" umdefiniert und die Standesämter angewiesen, entsprechende Anträge nicht mehr zu bearbeiten.

    Great God of Heaven Daniel made simple SAM GORDON ‘With his typical warmth and wisdom, Sam Gordon peers through Daniel’s telescope of future events to show us the clarity of prophecy and, better yet, the glory of our Saviour. You’re left whispering under your breath, as the last page is turned, “Even so, come, Lord Jesus” … we can hardly wait.’ Dr Stephen Davey, Pastor/Teacher, Colonial Baptist Church, Cary NC President & Professor of Practical Theology, Shepherds Theological Seminary ‘The book of Daniel is the perfect blend of prophecy and piety. God shares truths about the “sweet by and by” to give his followers hope, while Daniel and his friends demonstrate the wisdom and faith needed to live for God through the “difficult here and now.” Properly interpreted, the book of Daniel helps the reader gain an understanding of God’s plan for the future while also learning how to stay faithful today. And in this practical commentary, Sam Gordon gives us that proper interpretation!’ Dr Charlie Dyer, Professor-at-Large of Bible, Moody Bible Institute Host of The Land and the Book radio program ‘On several occasions I have enjoyed hearing ministry from the book of Daniel by my brother and dear friend, Sam Gordon. A deep yearning of my heart has been to have this teaching in written form. This dream has come true in the pages of his book. I warmly commend it to you.’ David Logacho, Bible teacher throughout Latin America Former Director, La Biblia Dice, Quito, Ecuador ‘Many people love the book of Daniel, at least the first half.

  • Y10 History Week Beginning 15/06/20 How and Why Was Opposition to the Nazis Ineffective? Please Spend ONE HOUR on Each Lesson This Week
    Y10 History Week beginning 15/06/20 How and why was opposition to the Nazis ineffective? Please spend ONE HOUR on each lesson this week. Lesson One: 1. Look at the image below. Spot the protester, read his story and answer the question. 2. Read the two different historians interpretations of opposition to Nazi rule. Then use your knowledge of the Nazis from previous lessons to explain why they disagree. 3. Read about the role of communist opposition and answer the questions, 1-5. 4. Read about the four key protests, label each as a success or failure and complete the table. Spot the man not doing the Nazi salute. The man refusing to salute is August Landmesser. The photo was taken in June 1936 at Hamburg shipyard, where August worked. In pursuit of work, August had joined the Nazi Party in 1931, but his engagement to Irma Eckler, a Jewish women, broke the Nazis’ Nuremburg Laws about racial purity and he was expelled from the party in 1935. His quiet, defiant and peaceful protest against mass Nazi support brought him to the attention of the Gestapo. August lost his job and in 1937, along with Irma and their young daughter, he attempted to flee Germany. The family was arrested and tried for ‘dishonouring the race’. After being acquitted (let off), they were arrested again in 1938. Both were sent to separate concentration camps, where Irma died. It is believed that she was killed as part of Aktion T4 after she developed severe depression, although the records have been lost.
