› Find signed collectible books: 'Bilder Vom Juden: Studien Zum Alltaglichen Antisemitismus'
Wer Judenhass oder Antisemitismus allein der extremen Rechten zuordnet, vergisst die viele Jahrhunderte währende Entwicklung des Antijudaismus, der bis heute deutliche Spuren in breiten Bevölkerungsschichten hinterlassen hat. Wolfgang Benz, der schon viel über das Dritte Reich veröffentlichte, hat eine Zwischenbilanz vorgelegt, wie antijüdische Stereotypen wirk(t)en und auch jetzt noch, oft unterschwellig, das Alltagsgespräch bestimmen können.
Der Berliner TU-Professor setzt historisch dort an, wo der christlich motivierte Antijudaismus ("Juden sind Gottesmörder") weitgehend abgelöst wird durch den pseudowissenschaftlichen Antisemitismus ("Juden sind eine minderwertige Rasse und planen eine Weltverschwörung"), und zeigt, dass beide Spielarten von Judenfeindschaft durchweg Bilder als Kristallisationskeime benötigen. Mündliche Überlieferung, oft folkloristisch vulgär, aber gleichwohl militant, schlägt sich nieder in Filmen, Schauspielen, Liedern, kultischen Handlungen und nicht zuletzt in der Literatur. Ikonen deutscher Dichtung, wie Hauff, Fontane oder der junge Heinrich Mann, um nur einige zu nennen, hinterließen unmissverständliche antisemitische Äußerungen. Benz weist darüber hinaus überzeugend nach, dass die viel beschworene deutsch-jüdische Symbiose in der Zeit vor dem Hitlerfaschismus eine Legende ist. Bemerkenswert auch die Untersuchung der späteren Entwicklung vom Umgang mit dem Holocaust anhand der Rezeption und Vermarktung der Tagebücher Anne Franks. Fast zum Lachen sind dagegen bestimmte Formen zwanghafter Annäherung an das Judentum, sozialpädagogischer Philosemitismus sozusagen, der wieder gutmachen will, was nicht wieder gutgemacht werden kann.
Benz hat einen Leitfaden zusammengestellt über Ergebnisse, aber auch Perspektiven und weitere Aufgaben der Antisemitismusforschung, die eigentlich keine Einzeldisziplin ist, sondern quer durch die universitären Fachbereiche geht. Bilder vom Juden spricht daher eher Studierende und Dozenten als Normalverbraucher an. Letzteren sei Julius H. Schoeps und Joachim Schlörs Buch zum gleichen Thema empfohlen: Antisemitismus, Vorurteile und Mythen. --Jürgen Grande [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Encyclopedia of German Resistance to the Nazi Movement'
Germans of many persuasions resisted Nazi rule for many different reasons, but, until recently, political considerations often determined who were regarded as genuine resisters and who were not. The Encyclopedia of German Resistance to the Nazi Movement does justice to all facets of the opposition to Hitler and his regime. Approximately seven thousand individuals known by name come under the broad notion of resistance governing this volume. The encyclopedia is divided into three (copiously cross-referenced) parts, moving from general overviews to highly specific short entries.
In Part One, ten long essays survey the main groups of resisters and opponents of the Nazi regime, including Communists, socialists, Christians, Jews, Jehovah's Witnesses, the military, women, young people, and emigres. Part Two contains shorter articles on specific topics, groups, and events, ranging from the Confessing Church and the Jewish Chug Chaluzi to military sabotage, desertion, everyday disobedience, and assassination attempts. Part Three consists of 550 short biographies of the main opponents of National Socialism mentioned. [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Holocaust: A German Historian Examines the Genocide'
The Holocaust: A German Historian Examines the Genocide by Wolfgang Benz is a dark flash of a book--156 astringent pages, describing the events and individuals who determined the fate of millions of Jews. The author is a German, not a Jew, and his task is analytical, not explanatory. The Holocaust avoids the questions that drive most books about its subject. It does not delve into the origins of National Socialism or the question of why Germans allowed the Holocaust to happen. Instead, Benz begins by describing the Wannsee Conference, which planned "to rid all German territory of Jews by legal means," and then describes the laws that allowed discrimination against Jews, the destruction of civil rights for Jews, and the creation of ghettos and concentration camps. His nonideological analysis of the genocide is far from amoral, however. Every page of this German's account of the holocaust rings with the mournfulness of a man who must take stock of the hardest parts of his history, in preparation for understanding that history. And although some scholars may argue there is no such thing as objectivity, Benz's account of the political genesis of genocide comes awfully close. "Not a single line of this book can be contested or argued out of existence," says Jewish historian Arthur Hertzberg in his introduction to The Holocaust. "All of these events took place, and they happened in the order in which he puts them." Simply having these facts so clearly and succinctly described will help many readers prepare to grapple with the raging moral questions raised by the Holocaust. That is cause for hope. --Michael Joseph Gross [via]

Lost in a Labyrinth of Red Tape is the story of one family's desperate attempts to emigrate from Nazi Germany. The Frühaufs faced enormous obstacles with the German and foreign authorities when they attempted to take advantage of matriarch Hilde Frühauf's U.S. citizenship. At the mercy of various agencies and shippers, they became more and more entangled in the red tape of the title. The daughter went into hiding and fled to Belgium, where she was hidden by the Resistance and survived the war. Tragically, the remaining members of her family failed to emigrate, and were killed by the Nazis. [via]

"At the age of fifty and faced with severe depression, Salomea Genin began to write about her family's history. From stories both told and untold, Genin recreates the lives of the Zwerling family in the Jewish quarter of Lvov: Shulim, her strict and deeply religious grandfather; his patient but tired wife Dvoire; and his beautiful, rebellious daughter Shayndl, who marries a dreamer against her father's wishes and without his blessing, and who will later become Salomea Genin's mother. Genin's richly detailed portrait shows the effects of a family's struggles--personal, religious, social, and for their very survival--against the shadow of the Nazi rise to power." [via]
