"Das KZ Theresienstadt war Durchgangslager für über 140 000 Gefangene. Benjamin Murmelstein rettete als einzig überlebender Judenältester des Konzentrationslagers vielen Tausend Menschen das Leben. Seine detaillierte, der Wahrheit verpflichtete Schilderung dieser Zeit ist ein unersetzliches Zeitzeugnis und liegt nun erstmals in deutscher Übersetzung vor.Nach Stationen in der jüdischen Wiener Auswanderungsabteilung und Mitglied des Judenrates kam der Rabbiner Benjamin Murmelstein Anfang 1943 in das von der NS-Propaganda als Juden- bzw. Altersghetto beschönigte KZ.Sein Buch über Theresienstadt, das 1961 in seiner späteren Heimat Italien erschien, ist auch eine Verteidigung seiner Person. Wiederholt wurde ihm nach Kriegsende der Vorwurf der Kollaboration gemacht – von dem er allerdings bereits in den 50er-Jahren freigesprochen wurde.Dennoch durfte er beim Eichmann-Prozess 1961 nicht aussagen, er wurde vonseiten Israels mehrfach angegriffen und der Großrabbiner von Rom verweigerte ihm nach seinem Tod das Totengebet. Zu Recht bezeichnete er sich als „Der letzte der Ungerechten“ – einen Titel, den Dokumentarfilmer und „Shoah“-Regisseur Claude Lanzmann auch für seinen 2013 außer Konkurrenz in Cannes über Murmelstein gezeigten Film wählte."

Analyzing the earliest debates over the memory of Nazi camps, the author makes an important contribution to the study of their origin, reducing the existing asymmetry in our knowledge on the relevant phenomena in Western and Eastern Europe. This is all the more important as the Poles and Polish Jews, whose involvement in the disputes over memory she describes, were the most important group of survivors and eyewitnesses of the camps and so the genuine group of memory. Prof. Dariusz Stola (Institute of Political Studies of the Polish Academy of Science) The vast number and variety of sources us

Between 1941 and 1945 as many as 70,000 inmates died at the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in northwestern Germany. The exact number will never be known. A large number of these deaths were caused by malnutrition and disease, mainly typhus, shortly before and after liberation. It was at this time, in April of 1945, that Michael Hargrave answered a notice at the Westminster Hospital Medical School for 'volunteers'. On the day of his departure the 21-year-old learned that he was being sent to Bergen-Belsen, liberated only two weeks before. This firsthand account, a diary written for his mother

What was the extent of allied knowledge regarding the mass murder of Jews at Auschwitz during the Second World War? The question is one which continues to prompt heated historical debate, and Michael Fleming's important new book offers a definitive account of just how much the Allies knew. By tracking Polish and other reports about Auschwitz from their source, and surveying how knowledge was gathered, controlled and distributed to different audiences, the book examines the extent to which information about the camp was passed on to the British and American authorities, and how the dissemination of this knowledge was limited by propaganda and information agencies in the West. In a fascinating new study, the author reveals that the Allies had extensive knowledge of the mass killing of Jews at Auschwitz much earlier than previously thought; but the publicising of this information was actively discouraged in Britain and the US.
