A great historian crowns a lifetime of thought and research by answering a question that has haunted us for more than 50 years: How did one of the most industrially and culturally advanced nations in the world embark on and continue along the path leading to one of the most enormous criminal enterprises in history, the extermination of Europe's Jews?
Giving considerable emphasis to a wealth of new archival findings, Saul Friedlander restores the voices of Jews who, after the 1933 Nazi accession to power, were engulfed in an increasingly horrifying reality. We hear from the...

The enactment of the German extermination policies that resulted in the murder of six million European Jews depended upon many factors, including the cooperation of local authorities and police departments, and the passivity of the populations, primarily of their political and spiritual elites. Necessary also was the victims' willingness to submit, often with the hope of surviving long enough to escape the German vise. The Years of Extermination, the completion of Saul Friedlander's major historical opus on Nazi Germany and the Jews, explores the convergence of the various aspects...

Fleming is the only scholar given access to the interrogations of the German civilian crematoria engineers lying inaccessible, until a few months ago, in Moscow. This historically important information finally places the last stone in the mosaic of Auschwitz-Berkenau.

Can the Holocaust be compellingly described or represented? Or is there some core aspect of the extermination of the Jews of Europe which resists our powers of depiction, of theory, of narrative? In this volume, twenty scholars probe the moral, epistemological, and aesthetic limits of an account or portrayal of the Nazi horror.
These essays expose to scrutiny questions that have a pressing claim on our attention, our conscience, and our cultural memory. First presented at a conference organized by Saul Friedlander, they are now made available for the wide consideration and discussion...

Diese von Saul Friedländer autorisierte Kurzfassung seines zweibändigen Werkes Das Dritte Reich und die Juden hat rund 800 Seiten weniger und bietet auf etwa 500 Seiten eine überschaubare Lektüre.

Orna Kenan hat bei ihrer Arbeit mit größter Sorgfalt und Sensibilität darauf geachtet, die einzigartige Erzählstruktur des Originals zu erhalten und seinen Gehalt zu bewahren. So ist eine eigenständige Version entstanden, die einerseits die Vorzüge der großen...

Das Pontifikat Pius XII. ist bis heute umstritten wie kein anderes im 20. Jahrhundert. Hatte der Papst plausible Gründe, sich in seinen Äußerungen zur Verfolgung und Ermordung der europäischen Juden zurückzuhalten, oder hat er moralisch versagt? Gab es einen latenten Antisemitismus im Vatikan? Warum hat der "Stellvertreter" selbst die Deportation der Juden Roms widerspruchslos hingenommen, während er andererseits zahlreichen Juden heimlich Hilfe zukommen ließ? Dem Streit der Meinungen hat Saul Friedländer eine historische Dokumentation entgegengesetzt, die bis heute nichts von ihrer...
