Yad Vashem Studies Volume 47 (2)

Yad Vashem Publications

<p>This book examines the Shoah in the Lublin District. Its analysis traces forced population movements and forced labor, constants in German policy, the bitter early memory of which influenced Jews later actions. Many hid or fled the deportations to death camps and forced labor, fearing an extreme return of the earlier experience, unable to grasp the Final Solution. Lublin was a contradictory district - few ghettos yet little survival.</p>

Gates of Tears: The Holocaust in the Lublin District

The subject matter in this issue of Yad Vashem Studies is varied and the geography far-flung, but questions of human relations during the Shoah between Jews and their non-Jewish countrymen as well as among Jews are a central theme and connecting thread. The articles address wartime Jewish accounts, rabbinic responsa, the destruction of a Jewish community and its ancient cemetery by local officials and Germans, camps, and regional issues in many parts of Europe, presenting both little known subjects and new documentation. The contributors, who come from six countries and provide insight from multiple perspectives: Lea Prais; Leon Saltiel; Judit Konya; Liliana Picciotto; Avihu Ronen; Dalia Ofer; Anna Hájková; Maud Mandel; and Bob Moore.

David Silberklang, as editor, has displayed a remarkable talent for balancing the output of grizzled veterans with the challenging findings of younger researchers... No library that purports to offer students and teachers the essential historical texts on the Nazi era and the fate of the Jews can afford to be without Yad Vashem Studies' [David Cesarani, The Journal of Holocaust Education].
