  • «Ich Habe Nur Als Mensch Gehandelt Und Wollte Ja Niemandem Weh Tun.»1
    «Ich habe nur als Mensch gehandelt und wollte ja niemandem weh tun.»1 Ein Judenretter aus der Wehrmacht. Feldwebel Anton Schmid (1900–1942) Der aus Wien stammende Wehrmacht-Feldwebel Anton Schmid leis- tete 1941/42 Kriegsdienst in der deutsch besetzten Stadt Wilna in Litauen. Dort rettete er unter Einsatz seines Lebens mehr als 300 Juden vor der Ermordung. Seine Kraft zum Widerstand zog er aus seiner humanen Grundeinstellung und aus seinem christlichen Glauben. Er war ein Held der Humanität. Zeitgeschichte 73 Wolfram Wette Ein guter Mensch aus Wien Anton Schmid wurde am 9. Januar 1900 in Wien geboren. Dort verbrachte er auch die ersten vier Jahrzehnte seines Lebens. Sein Vater stammte aus dem Bezirk Nikolsburg in Mähren, ebenso seine Mutter. Der Vater war Bäckerge- selle. Die Mutter arbeitete als Hausfrau. Beide waren katholisch. Sie liessen ihren Sohn Anton katholisch taufen und erzogen ihn ebenso. Nach der Volksschule absolvierte er eine Lehre als Elektrotechniker. 1918 nahm er noch am Ersten Weltkrieg teil. Als 28-Jähriger eröffnete er in der Arbeitervor- stadt Wien-Brigittenau ein Elektrogeschäft, verkaufte und reparierte Radios und Fotoapparate. Viel mehr ist über die ersten 39 Lebensjahre des Anton Schmid nicht in Erfahrung zu bringen. Aus den wenigen Quellen ergibt sich das Bild eines heiteren Menschenfreundes, der mit seinen Nachbarn, auch den jüdischen, ein gutes Verhältnis hatte. Als der Antisemitismus in den 1930er Jahren auch in Österreich gewalttätig wurde und ein Nazi einer jüdischen Bäckereibesitze- rin in der Nachbarschaft die Scheiben ihres Ladens einschlug, leistete Anton Schmid spontan Hilfe und legte sich dazu noch mit der Polizei an. Nun wäre es allerdings falsch, aus diesen Aktivitäten Anton Schmids zu schliessen, dass er ein dezidierter Philosemit oder ein Anhänger des Zionis- mus gewesen wäre.

Whereas the topic was practically non-existent two decades ago, at the last World Congress of Jewish Studies, the “Olympics” of Jewish scholarship, held in Jerusalem in August 2013, various panels were dedicated to this burgeoning field. Although the Jewish people are usually dubbed “the people of the book,” in traditional Jewish society authority is primarily based on oral transmission in the teacher-student dialog.1 Thus, the innovation and modernization process connected to print and subsequent changes in reading culture had for a long time been underrated.2 Just as in Christian society, the establishment of printing houses and the dissemination of books instigated far-reaching changes in all areas of Jewish intellectual life and finally led to the democratization of Jewish culture.3 In central Europe, the rise of publications in the Jewish vernacular, i.e.

  • CHOOSING to ACT: STORIES of RESCUE Choosing to Act STORIES of RESCUE
    CHOOSING TO ACT: STORIES OF RESCUE choosing to act STORIES OF RESCUE The 2012 Days of Remembrance commemorate the actions of rescuers during the Holocaust. The stories of ordinary people who chose to intervene and help rescue Jews, despite the risks, demonstrate that individuals have the power to make a difference. These posters highlight rescuers whose decisions to act during the Holocaust inspire us to counter indifference with vigilance and apathy with action. National Days of Remembrance CHOOSING TO ACT: STORIES OF RESCUE A bishop Greek Isle of Zakynthos, September 1943 BISHOP CHRYSOSTOMOS When German officials demanded a list of the island’s Jewish residents, Mayor Karrer turned to local Greek Orthodox Bishop Chrysostomos for help. As the bishop negotiated for their lives, 192 Jews fled to remote local villages where non-Jewish locals hid them. When the Germans again demanded the names for deportation, Chrysostomos presented a list bearing only two names—his and the mayor’s. “Here,” he said, “are your Jews.” At war’s end, all 275 of Zakynthos’s Jews were still alive.

  • Reinventing the Holocaust: Television, Historiography, and The
    History of the Screen and the Book: The Reinvention of the Holocaust in the Television and Historiography of the Federal Republic of Germany Wulf Kansteiner, SUNY Binghamton Introduction The broadcast of the television mini-series Holocaust in 1979 marked the painful beginning of the media age for Germany’s historians. For the first time a media event called into question the historians’ self-image and professional pride and the impact was particularly severe because it occurred on the sensitive terrain of Vergangenheitsbewältigung (overcoming/mastering the past). Especially during the 1960s, historians had contributed their fair share to the collective challenge of working through the legacy of Nazism. In the process, they had only rarely found themselves at odds with interpretations of Nazism proposed by politicians, writers, and other intellectuals. The attempts to inform and educate Germans about the Nazi genocide through perpetrator trials, plays, books, films, and TV programs had not been perceived as incompatible with historical research and writing. But the surprising reception of Holocaust by German audiences forced German historians to acknowledge that their tacit educational ambitions, which were an integral yet rarely explicitly developed part of their professional identity, had never been realized in the reception of their own work. The intellectual interests and moral impetus which had informed scholarly reflections about the history of the “Final Solution” had not transcended a relatively small community of intellectuals. In addition, and more important, Holocaust had uncovered 1 collective interests in historical identification which were beyond the reach of scholarship, especially the scholarship of contemporary history created in the 1970s.

Als nationalsozialistischer, rasseideologischer Vernichtungskrieg hatte er Millionen Menschen das Leben gekostet: 6 Millionen europäische Juden fielen dem Rassewahn der Nationalsozialisten zum Opfer, in weiten Teilen Europas war jüdisches Leben ausgelöscht. Mit insgesamt 60-70 Millionen Toten steht der Zweite Weltkrieg für die Tragödie des 20. Jahrhunderts.

The Righteous The Unsung Heroes of the Holocaust Martin Gilbert DRAWING FROM TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OF ORIGINAL RESEARCH, SIR MARTIN GILBERT RE-CREATES THE REMARKABLE STORIES OF NON-JEWS WHO RISKED THEIR LIVES TO HELP JEWS DURING THE HOLOCAUST According to Jewish tradition, “Whoever saves one life, it is as if he saved the entire world.” In The Righteous, distinguished historian Sir Martin Gilbert explores the courage of those who, throughout Germany and in every occupied country from Norway to Greece, from the Atlantic to the Baltic, took incredible risks to help Jews whose fate would have been sealed without them. Indeed, many lost their lives for their efforts. From Greek-Orthodox Princess Alice of Greece, who hid Jews in her home in Athens, to the Ukrainian Uniate Archbishop of Lvov, who hid hundreds of Jews in his churches and monastaries, to Muslims in Bosnia and Albania, to British prisoners-of-war, many risked, and lost, everything to help their fellow man.
