Abstract

The end of the Second World war did not mean the end of violence for many regions in Eastern Europe. The establishment of Communist-led governments often met not only civil but also armed resistance. These actions were taken by partisan groups and paramilitary forces which in some cases had been formed already during the war to support axis forces. In other cases - like Poland's Armia Krajowa - they fought Nazi and Soviet occupiers with the same fervour. The aims of the fighters were the end of Communist rule and - like in the Baltic region - independence from the Soviet Union. Difficulties in accessing sources and research taboos as well as a focus on other aspects of the Cold War are reasons why violent resistance in Europe after the Second World War is a topic yet rather underestimated and comparably little investigated by historiography. This book gives a comprehensive first overview of the ultimately futile attempts to end the rule of Moscow and her proxies.

Abstract

Many refugees of the Nazi period have attracted considerable scholarly attention. Einstein, Thomas Mann, Hannah Arendt, among others, are all famous examples. In contrast, little is known about the lives of more typical refugees, their everyday lives in exile and emigration, their daily pain, sorrow, and underlying strength. This study shows, for the first time, how refugee women during the Nazi period endured, examining their important role in the survival of their families, and the meaning of exile and emigration for their future lives and careers. Between Sorrow and Strength combines essays by noted scholars in the field with eyewitness reports from contemporaries. It reveals a great deal about the role of women in the history of Jewish, as well as non-Jewish, emigration from Europe during the Nazi era.

Abstract

On connaît le rôle joué par les historiens dans la guerre de 14-18. Peut-être plus discrète mais tout aussi importante a été la mobilisation des archéologues et des historiens de l'art dans ce conflit, où la destruction de monuments et d'œuvres d'art a été systématiquement imputée à l'Allemagne. Ces actes de "barbarie" venaient corroborer l'idéologie du combat du droit mené contre des ennemis inhumains. Pendant la Grande Guerre, les historiens de l'art et archéologues - universitaires, directeurs de revues, théoriciens, érudits, inspecteurs du patrimoine, conservateurs, à la tête d'institutions culturelles ou responsables de fouilles - s'engagèrent sur le terrain où à l'arrière. Les études réunies dans ce volume se proposent de contribuer à l'histoire des pratiques intellectuelles mises en œuvre en temps de guerre, dans une perspective transnationale. La guerre est ainsi appréhendée comme un "laboratoire", où naissent des méthodes et des savoir-faire nouveaux en matière de recherche, de restauration et de conservation.
