Based on thousands of archival documents and testimonies of survivors, The Holocaust in Romania sheds new light on Romania’s prefascist and fascist antisemitic legislation and its implementation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pp. 5-15 contain Rozen's memoirs on the deportation of his family from Dorohoi to Transnistria in November 1941 and on his survival in Transnistria in 1941-43. He was the only survivor of his family of five. The rest of the book describes Antonescu's policies toward the Romanian and Ukrainian Jews under his rule. In the area which can be called the "death zone" (which included Bessarabia, Northern Bukovina, Dorohoi, and Transnistria), these policies were genocidal. In the rest of Romania, thousands of Jews were also killed, including 8,000 in the Iaşi pogrom in 1941. In all, 270,000 Romanian and Ukrainian Jews fell victim to Antonescu's regime. Pp. 92-97 contain a chronology of events between December 1937-August 1944. Pp. 98-128 contain statistical data on the Holocaust in the areas under Romanian control during World War II.
Book Synopsis The Destruction of Romanian and Ukrainian Jews During the Antonescu Era by : Randolph L. Braham
Download or read book The Destruction of Romanian and Ukrainian Jews During the Antonescu Era written by Randolph L. Braham and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Romanian chapter in the history of European Jewry during the Nazi era is replete with complex and controversial issues, including the anti-Jewish measures of the late-1930s, the pogroms of the early-1940s and the mass murders of Jews in Romanian-occupied parts of Ukraine. This book, divided into four parts, includes an analytical view of anti-Semitism as reflected in the 1940-1944 records of the Council of Ministers; the genocidal drive against Romanian and Ukrainian Jews during the Antonescu era; the foreign factor in the history of the Holocaust in Romania; and the myths and history-cleansing campaigns spearheaded by Romanian nationalists.
Book Synopsis The Holocaust in Romania by : Radu Ioanid
Download or read book The Holocaust in Romania written by Radu Ioanid and published by Ivan R. Dee. This book was released on 2008-02-18 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1930, 757,000 Jews lived in Romania; they constituted the third largest Jewish community in Europe. Today not more than 14,000 Jews live in Romania, most of them elderly. The record of the Holocaust in Romania includes many curious chapters of support and betrayal, but they have been largely unavailable until now. Radu Ioanid’s account based upon privileged access to secret East European government archives, is an unprecedented analysis of heretofore purposely hidden materials. Archival records, published and unpublished reports, memoirs of survivors, letters—Mr. Ioanid uses all these elements to build an accurate perspective on Romanian policies of racism, anti-Semitism, and Jewish extermination during the regime of Ion Antonescu. The publication of The Holocaust in Romania is timely as well as important, for there is now in Romania a growing effort to deny the government’s role in the tragedy. Mr. Ioanid sheds light on the reality of the persecutions, the cruelty of the perpetrators, their blatant opportunism and endless cynicism. The story is one of destruction and survival; of German dissatisfaction with Romanian ad hoc violence; of an elusive national policy and the strategies of Romanian authorities that allowed 300,000 Romanian Jews to survive the war. "Invaluable...monumental...no comparable work in any language has documented this important history with the thoroughness, skill, and analytical sophistication this book demonstrates.”—Leo Spitzer, Dartmouth College. Published in association with the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. With 8 pages of photographs.

Book excerpt: "Let us take advantage of this historic moment and cleanse the soil of Romania ..." These words began the Romanian Holocaust in 1941. Deported Jews were expected to perish. So it might have been for the thousands sent to the German-occupied Soviet territory of Moghilev, were it not for the intervention of a Jewish engineer, 56-year-old Siegfried Jagendorf, who was among the deportees. This book tells the incredible story, left untold for fifty years, of a sabotaged and abandoned ironworks that became the instrument of salvation for 15,000 Romanian Jews. - Jacket flap.

This new translation by his wife and most frequent translator, Marion Wiesel, corrects important details and presents the most accurate rendering in English of Elie Wiesel's seminal work.
Book Synopsis The Quality of Witness by : Emil Dorian
Download or read book The Quality of Witness written by Emil Dorian and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The diary of Dorian (1893-1956), a Jewish physician and writer, documents the period between December 1937 (the period of the first antisemitic government, led by Goga and Cuza) and August 1944 (when Romania switched sides in World War II). The diary echoes the reactions of Jews and non-Jews (including anti-Jewish stereotypes) to the persecution of Jews in Romania. Refers also to the antisemitic legislation, the pogrom in Bucharest in January 1941, the deportations to Transnistria, and forced labor. Dorian survived the war in Bucharest.
Book Synopsis The Economic Destruction of Romanian Jewry by : Jean Ancel
Download or read book The Economic Destruction of Romanian Jewry written by Jean Ancel and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes Romania's antisemitic policies in the interwar period and the genocide of Jews in Romania and Romanian-controlled Transnistria (including Odessa) during World War II, stressing the economic aspect of these policies. The first clearly antisemitic law enacted in Romania was the Law to Reexamine Citizenship of January 1938, which stripped thousands of Jews of their citizenship. The great upheavals of 1938-42, including the loss of territories in 1940, an attempted Legionnaire takover in January 1941, and Romania's entrance into the war in June 1941, brought about an escalation in antisemitic policies. These included a boycott of Jewish trade, seizure of Jewish property, dismissals of Jewish workers, forced labor, measures to Romanize the country's cultural and intellectual life, and outright plunder. The Iron Guard played a leading role in the economic destruction of Romanian Jewry, reinforced with terror. Antonescu tried not to lag behind the previous Iron Guard regime in expropriation policies. The genocidal acts of Antonescu's regime (e.g. the pogrom in Iaşi and murders in Bessarabia, Bukovina, Odessa, and Transnistria) were accompanied by expropriation of Jewish property, plunder, extortion of money by selling food and water at inflated prices in ghettos and camps, and exploitation of Jewish labor.
Book Synopsis Romania's Holy War by : Grant T. Harward
Download or read book Romania's Holy War written by Grant T. Harward and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2021-11-15 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Romania's Holy War rights the widespread myth that Romania was a reluctant member of the Axis during World War II. In correcting this fallacy, Grant T. Harward shows that, of an estimated 300,000 Jews who perished in Romania and Romanian-occupied Ukraine, more than 64,000 were, in fact, killed by Romanian soldiers. Moreover, the Romanian Army conducted a brutal campaign in German-occupied Ukraine, resulting in the deaths of thousands of Soviet prisoners of war, partisans, and civilians. Investigating why Romanian soldiers fought and committed such atrocities, Harward argues that strong ideology—a cocktail of nationalism, religion, antisemitism, and anticommunism—undergirded their motivation. Romania's Holy War draws on official military records, wartime periodicals, soldiers' diaries and memoirs, subsequent war crimes investigations, and recent interviews with veterans to tell the full story. Harward integrates the Holocaust into the narrative of military operations to show that most soldiers fully supported the wartime dictator, General Ion Antonescu, and his regime's holy war against "Judeo-Bolshevism." The army perpetrated mass reprisals, targeting Jews in liberated Romanian territory; supported the deportation and concentration of Jews in camps or ghettos in Romanian-occupied Soviet territory; and played a key supporting role in SS efforts to exterminate Jews in German-occupied Soviet territory. Harward proves that Romania became Nazi Germany's most important ally in the war against the USSR because its soldiers were highly motivated, thus overturning much of what we thought we knew about this theater of war. Romania's Holy War provides the first complete history of why Romanian soldiers fought on the Eastern Front.
Download or read book Dawn written by Elie Wiesel and published by Hill and Wang. This book was released on 2006-03-21 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elie Wiesel's Dawn is an eloquent meditation on the compromises, justifications, and sacrifices that human beings make when they murder other human beings. "The author . . . has built knowledge into artistic fiction." —The New York Times Book Review Elisha is a young Jewish man, a Holocaust survivor, and an Israeli freedom fighter in British-controlled Palestine; John Dawson is the captured English officer he will murder at dawn in retribution for the British execution of a fellow freedom fighter. The night-long wait for morning and death provides Dawn, Elie Wiesel's ever more timely novel, with its harrowingly taut, hour-by-hour narrative. Caught between the manifold horrors of the past and the troubling dilemmas of the present, Elisha wrestles with guilt, ghosts, and ultimately God as he waits for the appointed hour and his act of assassination. The basis for the 2014 film of the same name, now available on streaming and home video.

Book Synopsis The Holocaust and the Germanization of Ukraine by : Eric C. Steinhart
Download or read book The Holocaust and the Germanization of Ukraine written by Eric C. Steinhart and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-02-09 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The German invasion of the Soviet Union during the Second World War was central to Nazi plans for territorial expansion and genocidal demographic revolution. To create 'living space', Nazi Germany pursued two policies. The first was the systematic murder of millions of Jews, Slavs, Roma, and other groups that the Nazis found undesirable on racial, religious, ethnic, ideological, hereditary, or behavioral grounds. It also pursued a parallel, albeit smaller, program to mobilize supposedly Germanic residents of Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union - so-called Volksdeutsche or ethnic Germans - as the vanguard of German expansion. This study recovers the intersection of these two projects in Transnistria, a portion of southern Ukraine that, because of its numerous Volksdeutsche communities, became an epicenter of both Nazi Volksdeutsche policy and the Holocaust in conquered Soviet territory, ultimately asking why local residents, whom German authorities identified as Volksdeutsche, participated in the Holocaust with apparent enthusiasm.

Book Synopsis Jewish Resistance Against the Nazis by : Patrick Henry
Download or read book Jewish Resistance Against the Nazis written by Patrick Henry and published by CUA Press. This book was released on 2014-04-20 with total page 670 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume puts to rest the myth that the Jews went passively to the slaughter like sheep. Indeed Jews resisted in every Nazi-occupied country - in the forests, the ghettos, and the concentration camps.The essays presented here consider Jewish resistance to be resistance by Jewish persons in specifically Jewish groups, or by Jewish persons working within non-Jewish organizations. Resistance could be armed revolt; flight; the rescue of targeted individuals by concealment in non-Jewish homes, farms, and institutions; or by the smuggling of Jews into countries where Jews were not objects of Nazi persecution. Other forms of resistance include every act that Jewish people carried out to fight against the dehumanizing agenda of the Nazis - acts such as smuggling food, clothing, and medicine into the ghettos, putting on plays, reading poetry, organizing orchestras and art exhibits, forming schools, leaving diaries, and praying. These attempts to remain physically, intellectually, culturally, morally, and theologically alive constituted resistance to Nazi oppression, which was designed to demolish individuals, destroy their soul, and obliterate their desire to live.
