Abstract

Annotation Between 1899 and 1911, student strikes and demonstrations disrupted Russia's higher educational institutions. The universities marched to their own peculiar tempo, however, and it was not until the strike of 1905 that student unrest coincided with mass movements outside the academic world.Students, Professors, and the State in Tsarist Russia, the first comprehensive study of the student movement during the waning decades of tsarist rule, centers on the interplay among student protest, faculty politics, and government policy toward the universities. The author examines the changing responses of students, faculty, and government officials to the crisis of the university and the old regime, throwing new light on the chronic political and social instability of the tsarist system. Kassow's familiarity with source material and his use of narratives from participants and observers alike provide both a trenchant analysis and a lively portrait of the times. Original and incisive, this book will be welcomed not only by specialists in the Russian field, but also by anyone interested in the dynamics of student protest and the role of the intellectual in popular movements

Abstract

In 1940, the historian Emanuel Ringelblum established a clandestine organization, code named Oyneg Shabes, in Nazi-occupied Warsaw to study and document all facets of Jewish life in wartime Poland and to compile an archive that would preserve this history for posterity. As the Final Solution unfolded, although decimated by murders and deportations, the group persevered in its work until the spring of 1943. Of its more than 60 members, only three survived. Ringelblum and his family perished in March 194

Abstract

En octobre 1939, Emmanuel Ringelblum, historien, entreprend de rassembler systématiquement les documents touchant le sort des juifs de Pologne. Il constitue autour de lui un groupe de bénévoles. Pour eux, se souvenir est une forme élémentaire de résistance. Ils se donnent pour nom de code Oyneg Shabes : «Joie du sabbat», en hébreu. Ringelblum, sa famille, et la grande majorité des quelque soixante membres de ce réseau, périssent avant la fin de la guerre. Ils étaient historiens, sociologues, économistes, éducateurs, écrivains, poètes, en sorte qu'aucun domaine de la vie ne puisse être ignoré. Cependant, en pleine Shoah et jusqu'au printemps 1943, le groupe a réussi à travailler d'arrache-pied pour écrire la chronique de la disparition de la communauté yiddish. Sentant l'imminence de la fin, les archivistes réussissent à cacher des milliers de documents dans des bidons de lait ou des boîtes en fer-blanc avant de les enterrer. Servi par un talent de conteur qui n'est pas sans rappeler celui des Disparus, cet ouvrage est sans conteste un des livres les plus importants sur la Shoah. Car au-delà de l'histoire magistrale d'une famille, d'un historien et d'un groupe, au-delà d'un tableau de la culture yiddish et de son inscription dans la culture polonaise et russe de l'époque, c'est véritablement l'histoire de l'Holocauste vécue par ses victimes contemporaines que déroule ce livre.
