"During the Nazi regime many children and youth living in Europe found their lives uprooted by Nazi policies, resulting in their relocation around the globe. The Young Victims of the Nazi Regime is a significant attempt to represent the diversity of their experiences, covering a range of non-European perspectives on the Second World War and aspects of memory. The book is unique in that it places the experiences of children and youth in a transnational context, shifting the conversation of displacement and refuge to countries that have remained under-examined in a comparative context. Featuring essays from a wide range of international experts in the field, it analyses these themes in three sections: the flight and migration of children and youth to countries including England, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Kenya, and Brazil; the experiences of children and youth who remained in Nazi Europe and became victims of war, displacement and deportation; and finally the challenges of rebuilding lives and representing war traumas in the immediate and recent post-war periods respectively. In its comparisons between Jewish and non-Jewish experiences and how these intersected and diverged, it revisits debates about cultural genocide through the separation of families and communities, as well as contributing new perspectives on forced labour, families and the Holocaust, and Germans as war victims."-- "A multi-authored work examining the experiences of children and youth whose lives were affected by the policies of the Nazi regime"--

"Reverberations of Nazi Violence in Germany and Beyond explores the complex and diverse reverberations of the Second World War after 1945. It focuses on the legacies that National Socialist violence and genocide perpetrated in Europe continue to have in German-speaking countries and communities, as well as among those directly affected by occupation, terror and mass murder. Furthermore it explores how those legacies are in turn shaped by the present.The v. also considers conflicting, unexpected and often dissonant interpretations and representations of these events, made by those who were the witnesses, victims and perpetrators at the time and also by different communities in the generations that followed. The contributions, from a range of disciplinary perspectives, enrich our understanding of the complexity of the ways in which a disturbing past continues to disrupt the present and how the past is in turn disturbed and instrumentalized by a later present."--

Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926) geldt als een van de grootste Duitstalige dichters. Na lange omzwervingen trok hij zich terug in het Zwitserse Ch{circ}ateau de Muzot. In februari 1922 schreef hij daar in amper 15 dagen Die Sonette an Orpheus. Zoals de mythische zanger die in de onderwereld afdaalde om zijn geliefde Eurydice terug te halen, overschrijdt Rilke in deze cyclus voortdurend de grens tussen leven en dood. Het is een ode aan het hele bestaan, dat zowel het zinnelijke als het bovenzinnelijke omvat. De dichter bezingt de aarde en hekelt het blinde geloof in de technologische vooruitgang, dat hij verantwoordelijk acht voor de teloorgang van onze humane leefwereld. Daarmee ontpopt hij zich als ecologist avant la lettre. Tegelijk toont hij zich een taalvirtuoos, die de statische sonnetvorm op ongeziene wijze dynamiseert en zijn taal onder hoogspanning zet. Rilkes virtuoze rijmkunst evenaren is voor een vertaler geen gemakkelijke taak. In de vertaling van Schreurs wordt het rijm en metrum van het origineel zoveel mogelijk behouden, maar niet tot elke prijs. Schreurs voegde ook originele annotaties toe. Naast het taalverschil is er immers ook een tijdsverschil van ongeveer negentig jaar dat de lezer scheidt van de originele Sonette. De annotaties helpen deze afstand te overbruggen en reiken de lezer sleutels aan bij het lezen van de gedichten.

"Focussing on German responses to the Holocaust since 1945, Postwar Germany and the Holocaust traces the process of Vergangenheitsbewältigung ('overcoming the past'), the persistence of silences, evasions and popular mythologies with regards to the Nazi era, and cultural representations of the Holocaust up to the present day. It explores the complexities of German memory cultures, the construction of war and Holocaust memorials and the various political debates and scandals surrounding the darkest chapter in German history. The book comparatively maps out the legacy of the Holocaust in both East and West Germany, as well as the unified Germany that followed, to engender a consideration of the effects of division, Cold War politics and reunification on German understanding of the Holocaust. Synthesizing key historiographical debates and drawing upon a variety of primary source material, this volume is an important exploration of Germany's postwar relationship with the Holocaust. Complete with chapters on education, war crime trials, memorialization and Germany and the Holocaust today, as well as a number of illustrations, maps and a detailed bibliography, Postwar Germany and the Holocaust is a pivotal text for anyone interested in understanding the full impact of the Holocaust in Germany."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

Die Tagebücher des Victor Klemperer bieten einen ebenso aussagekräftigen wie aufschlussreichen Einblick in das alltägliche Funktionieren der nationalsozialistischen Diktatur. Diese Arbeit untersucht aus kulturwissenschaftlicher Perspektive, wie der historische Kontext des Nationalsozialismus Victor Klemperers Tagebüchern eingeschrieben ist. Der zentrale Bezugspunkt ist der Nationalsozialismus und seine direkten Begleiterscheinungen: Antisemitismus, Erniedrigung, Terror, Diskriminierung, Entrechtung, Verfolgung. Untersucht werden das deutsch-jüdische Selbstverständnis des Autors, die Formen und Funktionen seiner Tagebuchpraxis im Holocaust, seine Analyse der nationalsozialistischen Gesellschaft sowie auch die im Tagebuchtext zirkulierenden Diskurse seiner Entstehungszeit. Trotz entmenschlichender Unterdrückung bezeugen die Tagebücher den Fortbestand fundamentaler menschlicher Werte.
