A highly original and compelling account of individual Jews who resisted Nazi persecution, challenging the traditional portrayal of Jewish passivity during the Holocaust Drawing on twelve years of research in dozens of archives in Austria, Germany, Israel, and the United States, this book tells the story of five Jewish people-a merchant, a homemaker, a real estate broker, and two teenagers-who bravely resisted persecution and defended themselves in Nazi Germany. These stories have not been told until now, and each case is one of many, as Gruner shows by resurfacing similar accounts of Jewish refusal to accept persecution and violence in Germany and Austria between 1933 and 1943, upending the notion of passive Jews and expanding the concept of resistance. Each individual described here represents a category of resistance: written opposition, oral protest, contesting Nazi propaganda, defiance of anti-Jewish laws and measures, and self-defense against physical attacks. Many of these courageous acts resulted in the resisters being prosecuted and put on trial, and often receiving harsh punishments, while some led to acquittal by courts and others to changes in Nazi policies. Taken together, these accounts reframe our understanding of German Jewish attitudes during the Holocaust, while also providing an astonishing examination of the complex Nazi reactions to the many individual acts of Jewish resistance.

Depuis l’arrivée des premiers Sépharades après leur expulsion de l’Espagne à la fin du XVe siècle à Salonique et dans d’autres villes de l’Empire ottoman, les communautés juives se sont enracinées et épanouies dans des villes ottomanes qui deviennent grecques au XXe siècle. La disparition de la quasi-totalité des Juifs grecs au cours de la Shoah marque une rupture historique. ©Electre 2022
