Abstract

Der Band schildert die Geschichte der Stadt Auschwitz im Zweiten Weltkrieg. Im Mittelpunkt steht die Untersuchung der konzeptionellen, zeitlichen und räumlichen Einheit von Germanisierungs- und Vernichtungspolitik, fokussiert auf die Stadt und die umgebende Region Oberschlesien. Dabei zeigt sich: Auschwitz war für die nationalsozialistische Wirtschafts- und Siedlungspolitik von herausragender Bedeutung. Trotz der Nähe zum Konzentrationslager wurde die Stadt zum Modellobjekt bei der "Eindeutschung" des Ostens. This volume describes the history of the city of Auschwitz during the Second World War, focussing on the conceptional, chronological and spatial unity of the policy of Germanization and extermination both in Auschwitz and the neighbouring region of Eastern Upper Silesia. It becomes apparent that Auschwitz played an eminent role in the economic policy and settlement schemes of the National Socialists. Despite its close proximity to the concentration and extermination camp, the city became the model site for Germanizing the East.

Abstract

" Auschwitz, 1270 to the Present elucidates how the prewar ordinary town of Auschwitz became Germany's most lethal killing site step by step and in stages: a transformation wrought by human beings, mostly German and mostly male. Who were the men who conceived, created, and constructed the killing facility? What were they thinking as they inched their way to iniquity? Using the hundreds of architectural plans for the camp that the Germans, in their haste, forgot to destroy, as well as blueprints and papers in municipal, provincial, and federal archives, Deborah Dwork and Robert Jan van Pelt show that the town of Auschwitz and the camp of that name were the centerpiece of Himmler's ambitious project to recover the German legacy of the Teutonic Knights and Frederick the Great in Nazi-ruled Poland. Analyzing the close ties between the 700-year history of the town and the five-year evolution of the concentration camp in its suburbs, Dwork and van Pelt offer an absolutely new and compelling interpretation of the origins and development of the death camp at Auschwitz. And drawing on oral histories of survivors, memoirs, depositions, and diaries, the authors explore the ever more murderous impact of these changes on the inmates' daily lives. "

Abstract

In 1986 verschijnt de graphic novel 'Maus'*, waarin striptekenaar Art Spiegelman (1948) de verschrikkingen van het concentratiekamp Auschwitz-Birkenau in beeld brengt en verhaalt hoe zijn ouders dit hebben overleefd. Het is een weergave van urenlange gesprekken met zijn na de oorlog naar de Verenigde Staten geëmigreerde vader Vladek. 'Maus' kreeg lovende kritieken, verscheen in meer dan dertig talen en aan Spiegelman werd in 1992 de Pulitzer Prize toegekend. Dat de Holocaust in stripvorm werd verteld, was destijds controversieel en leidde tot heftige discussies en vele vragen aan de auteur. In het rijk geïllustreerde 'MetaMaus' beantwoordt hij alle vragen tot in detail, zoals zijn keuze voor muizen (joden) en katten (nazi's) en grondige research. De bijgevoegde Engelstalige cd-rom voegt aan het boek nog ontzettend veel toe. Hij bevat het complete 'Maus'-stripverhaal, de interviews met Vladek, 7500 schetsen, voorstudies en omslagtekeningen. Nooit eerder is een stripboek zo goed en zo compleet gedocumenteerd. 'Maus' is dan ook een uitzonderlijke grafische roman en een waar tijdsdocument. © NBD Biblion - K.W. Cuperus
