Book Synopsis A Surplus of Memory by : Yitzhak ("Antek") Zuckerman
Download or read book A Surplus of Memory written by Yitzhak ("Antek") Zuckerman and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-09-01 with total page 669 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1943, against utterly hopeless odds, the Jews of the Warsaw Ghetto rose up to defy the Nazi horror machine that had set out to exterminate them. One of the leaders of the Jewish Fighting Organization, which led the uprisings, was Yitzhak Zuckerman, known by his underground pseudonym, Antek. Decades later, living in Israel, Antek dictated his memoirs. The Hebrew publication of Those Seven Years: 1939-1946 was a major event in the historiography of the Holocaust, and now Antek's memoirs are available in English. Unlike Holocaust books that focus on the annihilation of European Jews, Antek's account is of the daily struggle to maintain human dignity under the most dreadful conditions. His passionate, involved testimony, which combines detail, authenticity, and gripping immediacy, has unique historical importance. The memoirs situate the ghetto and the resistance in the social and political context that preceded them, when prewar Zionist and Socialist youth movements were gradually forged into what became the first significant armed resistance against the Nazis in all of occupied Europe. Antek also describes the activities of the resistance after the destruction of the ghetto, when 20,000 Jews hid in "Aryan" Warsaw and then participated in illegal immigration to Palestine after the war. The only extensive document by any Jewish resistance leader in Europe, Antek's book is central to understanding ghetto life and underground activities, Jewish resistance under the Nazis, and Polish-Jewish relations during and after the war. This extraordinary work is a fitting monument to the heroism of a people.

Book excerpt: THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! Also on the USA Today, Washington Post, Boston Globe, Globe and Mail, Publishers Weekly, and Indie bestseller lists. One of the most important stories of World War II, already optioned by Steven Spielberg for a major motion picture: a spectacular, searing history that brings to light the extraordinary accomplishments of brave Jewish women who became resistance fighters—a group of unknown heroes whose exploits have never been chronicled in full, until now. Witnesses to the brutal murder of their families and neighbors and the violent destruction of their communities, a cadre of Jewish women in Poland—some still in their teens—helped transform the Jewish youth groups into resistance cells to fight the Nazis. With courage, guile, and nerves of steel, these “ghetto girls” paid off Gestapo guards, hid revolvers in loaves of bread and jars of marmalade, and helped build systems of underground bunkers. They flirted with German soldiers, bribed them with wine, whiskey, and home cooking, used their Aryan looks to seduce them, and shot and killed them. They bombed German train lines and blew up a town’s water supply. They also nursed the sick, taught children, and hid families. Yet the exploits of these courageous resistance fighters have remained virtually unknown. As propulsive and thrilling as Hidden Figures, In the Garden of Beasts, and Band of Brothers, The Light of Days at last tells the true story of these incredible women whose courageous yet little-known feats have been eclipsed by time. Judy Batalion—the granddaughter of Polish Holocaust survivors—takes us back to 1939 and introduces us to Renia Kukielka, a weapons smuggler and messenger who risked death traveling across occupied Poland on foot and by train. Joining Renia are other women who served as couriers, armed fighters, intelligence agents, and saboteurs, all who put their lives in mortal danger to carry out their missions. Batalion follows these women through the savage destruction of the ghettos, arrest and internment in Gestapo prisons and concentration camps, and for a lucky few—like Renia, who orchestrated her own audacious escape from a brutal Nazi jail—into the late 20th century and beyond. Powerful and inspiring, featuring twenty black-and-white photographs, The Light of Days is an unforgettable true tale of war, the fight for freedom, exceptional bravery, female friendship, and survival in the face of staggering odds.

Book Synopsis Surviving in the Rubble: the Last Rebels of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising by : Leon Najberg
Download or read book Surviving in the Rubble: the Last Rebels of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising written by Leon Najberg and published by . This book was released on 2019-09-05 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of Leon Najberg's memoirs is the first of its kind not only because it is the first translation of his writings into English, but also because it reflects each of his works separately, that is, how they were originally created. One part constitutes Najberg's diary in its original form, including the dates. The second part is the testimony of the author as recorded by Klara Mirska, a member of the Jewish Historical Institute.According to the note included in the file "Pamietniki Zydow 302/113." (Jewish Diaries 303/113) at the archive of the Jewish Historical Institute, extensive fragments of the memoir encompassing the period of April 18, 1943 till September 23, 1943 were published in 1946 under the title "Gruzowcy" (Living and Fighting in the Rubble) by the publishing house of Centralna Zydowska Komisja Historyczna przy CK Zydow Polskich in the publication Akcje i Wysiedlenia (Actions and Resettlements 333-389). This particular version of the diary was edited to a "cleaned-up" variant and misrepresented theoriginal message as well as distorted the unique beautiful literary - if not to say poetic - style of the author. In this translation I used the version of the diary "Gruzowcy" (Living and Fighting in the Rubble) that is in its "raw" form and was not published previously.The book, Ostatni Powstancy Getta (The Last Resistance Fighters of the Ghetto) that appeared in 1993 and was published by the Jewish Historical Institute is an account that merges two sources, the over-edited version of the diary, previously used for in Actions and Resettlements as mentioned above, and the testimony as recorded by Klara Mirska. Both writings used to create the book Ostatni Powstancy Getta (The Last Rebels of the Ghetto) are not the full versions of Leon Najberg's writings since the texts used have been truncated and additionally over edited, most likely to accommodate the sentiments of the political climate at the time. This form of editing not only deleted some of the important information, but also changed the original style of the author.This edition, however, goes back to the original sources and uses the hand-written manuscripts and at the same time attempts to preserve the unique style of the author as much as it is possible in translation.
