  • The Compromise of Return: Viennese Jews After the Holocaust
    PRAISE FOR THE COMPROMISE OF RETURN “In an engaging, thoroughly researched study, Elizabeth Anthony reveals how and why Jewish returnees came back to ‘their’ city, Vienna, but not to Austria. They persisted in reclaiming their familial, professional, and polit- ical homes, as they compromised with ongoing individual and governmen- tal antisemitism, including the refusal to return their property. Elegantly written, Anthony’s book highlights the hardships and disappointments of Jewish survivors as they settled back ‘home.’” —Marion Kaplan, author of Hitler’s Jewish Refugees: Hope and Anxiety in Portugal “With The Compromise of Return Elizabeth Anthony brings history alive. She paints a vivid picture of the life of Jewish Austrians who chose to remain in or returned to Vienna after the fall of the Nazi regime. Through poignant personal interviews coupled with meticulous archival research and in conversation with international scholarship, the author convinc- ingly argues how their unique Jewish-Viennese identities allowed them to remain in an anti-Semitic society that presented itself as Hitler’s first vic- tim. The Compromise of Return, the first comprehensive English-language study on the topic, constitutes a major contribution to post-war Austrian and Holocaust histories.” —Jacqueline Vansant, author of Reclaiming Heimat: Trauma and Mourning in Memoirs by Jewish Austrian Reémigrés “Deeply researched and beautifully written, this book tells the poignant story of Jewish survivors’ return to Vienna, really for the first time. Brim- ming with insights, it gives voice to the returnees; it is they who stand at the core of this history.” —Dirk Rupnow, Institute for Contemporary History, University of Innsbruck The Compromise of Return THE COMPROMISE OF RETURN VIENNESE JEWS AFTER THE HOLOCAUST ELIZABETH ANTHONY WAYNE STATE UNIVERSITY PRESS Detroit © 2021 by Elizabeth Anthony.

That is the reality of exile. The exhibition Over 300 images from the photojournalists of Magnum Photos tell the story of migration: walking, waiting, uncertainty, fear... and hope. Work from the agency’s historical greats – including Robert Capa, Werner Bischof and Raymond Depardon – is displayed alongside that of contemporary photographers shooting on the ground. From the Spanish Civil War to the Vietnam War, from the conflict in the former Yugoslavia to the one in the Middle East and the arrival of refugees at Europe’s door, the exhibition plunges the visitor into a riveting documentary exploration of our world and humanity, calling into question notions of territoriality, geopolitics, economic context and mental boundaries. EXILE brings the journey to life through a bold exhibition design that departs from traditional displays. Visitors are invited to physically handle the photographs, creating a completely different relationship to the images and lives of the people represented. Last but not least, works of contemporary art from the National Museum of Immigration History in Paris serve to broaden the discussion and offer a range of insights into the exhibition’s subject matter. Magnum Photos Magnum Photos is a diverse and distinguished photographic co-operative owned by its photographer-members.

  • Erich Lessing
    Alistair Crawford Erich Lessing Born in Vienna in 1923, Erich Lessing was forced to emigrate to Palestine in 1939 at the age of sixteen. His mother remained in Vienna and died at Auschwitz. His grandmother remained in Vienna and died at Terezín. His best friend was finally caught and died in German- occupied Belgium. Lessing returned to Vienna in 1947 as a photographer and worked for the Associated Press. In 1951 he joined Magnum which the ICP Encyclopaedia of Photography indicated in 1984 ‘became the pre-eminent photographers’ agency for the quality of its members work was unequalled.’ This co-operative was formed in 1947 with offices in Paris and New York by Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Capa, George Rodger, David Seymour and William Vandivert in order to have more editorial control over their work. Magnum were responding to the growth of the highly successful post war photography magazines of the 1940’s and 1950’s who employed a new breed of professional photographers. Lessing was to work for some of the most distinguished, such as Life under Stefan Lorant, Picture Post under Tom Hopkinson, or Quick Magazine and Paris Match. It became the age of the photo-essay, led by the Americans, by W Eugene Smith (1918-1978) with the day in the life of Dr Ernest Guy Ceriani of Kremmling, Colorado who became the definitive ‘Country Doctor’ for all time when published in Life magazine in 1948. Europe already had its equivalents, for example, in the excellent reportage of the Swiss photographer Felix H Mann (b.1893) who became the chief photographer for Picture Post in 1938.

    1956 on Photographs: - The 1956 Hungarian Revolution, its Visual Heritage and the Iconographic Classification of its Photographs 1 Attila Király Associate Professor of Faculty of International Humanities, Josai International University 概要概要概要 この論文は、1956 年のハンガリー革命を写した写真を取り上げ、様々な観点から検討する。 1950 年代のメディアの状況と写真撮影の技術的側面を紹介し、ハンガリー内外のプロ、または アマチュア写真家の撮影のやり方に焦点を当てて、彼らの目標、写真の構成技法、視覚効果およ び芸術性などを分析する。また、最近の新しい研究を踏まえ、国外の報道写真家の作品のなかで 最近身元の確認が取れたハンガリー人を取り上げ、その写真を紹介するとともに分析を試みる。 さらに、本論文は近年、ようやく明らかになったアマチュア・カメラマンの写真集を紹介し、ハ ンガリー革命の膨大な数の写真を分析して、写真の図像学的分類に挑戦している。 Keywords Photography, the 1956 Hungarian Revolution and War of Independence, foreign press, Hungarian press, professional and amateur photographers, debates and controversies on the visual heritage of the revolution, museum and Internet-based exhibitions, iconography of the revolution, Introduction In 2016, the sixtieth anniversary of the 1956 Hungarian Revolution and War of Independence provided new opportunities to reconsider and rethink the Revolution from a photographic and visual perspective.2 1 This study was prepared originally as a paper for the Conference of the Japanese Society of Hungarian Studies (Hangari Gakkai) in 2016 and as a companion text to the 1956 photo exhibition in the 2016 Hungarian exhibition room of the the University Festival of Josai International University. The original text was modified and completed, among others, with explanations about photographs that have emerged in the past couple of years (2017-2019). To make the reading easier, the author put the English translation of the Hungarian and Japanese reference materials into parantheses. 2 After World War II, Hungary signed the Paris Peace Treay in 1947, which restored basically the borders imposed after World War I. The Soviet Union put Hungary under its sphere of influence and the country became a socialist state. The authoritarian and repressive political system led to political demonstrations and uprising in October 1956.
