Book excerpt: The Stolen Narrative of the Bulgarian Jews and the Holocaust collects narratives of Bulgarian Jews who survived the Holocaust. Through the analysis of eye-witness testimonies, archival documents, photographs, and researchers’ investigations, the authors weave a complex tapestry of voices that were previously underrepresented, ignored, and denied. Taken together, the collected memories offer an alternative perspective that counters official accounts and corroborates war crimes.

Book excerpt: With the exception of Denmark, Bulgaria was the only country allied with Nazi Germany that did not annihilate or turn over its Jewish population. Here a prominent French intellectual with Bulgarian roots accounts for this singularity. Tzvetan Todorov assembles and interprets for the first time key evidence from this episode of Bulgarian history, including letters, diaries, government reports, and memoirs--most never before translated into any language. Through these documents, he reconstructs what happened in Bulgaria during World War II and interrogates collective memories of that time. He recounts the actions of individuals and groups that, ultimately and collectively, spared Bulgaria's Jews the fate of most European Jews. The Bulgaria that emerges is not a heroic country dramatically different from those countries where Jews did perish. Todorov does find heroes, especially parliament deputy Dimitar Peshev, certain writers and clergy, and--most inspiring--public opinion. Yet he is forced to conclude that the "good" triumphed to the extent that it did because of a tenuous chain of events. Any break in that chain--one intellectual who didn't speak up as forcefully, a different composition in Orthodox Church leadership, a misstep by a particular politician, a less wily king--would have undone all of the other efforts with disastrous results for almost 50,000 people. The meaning Todorov settles on is this: Once evil is introduced into public view, it spreads easily, whereas goodness is temporary, difficult, rare, and fragile. And yet possible.

Download or read book Holocaust Averted - Bulgarian Jews in World War II written by Miroslav Marinov Ph D and published by . This book was released on 2018-04-29 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During World War II, most of the European Jews perished by bullets, starvation and in concentration camps. The Jews in Bulgaria avoided that fate, despite Hitler's repeated attempts to impose his "final solution" on the country. Until recently, not enough was known about those events and as the knowledge expanded, so did the arguments about what exactly happened, as it is the case with almost every historical event in the Balkans. Many individuals and groups contributed to the survival of the 50,000 Bulgarian Jews and it is difficult to pinpoint who played the crucial role. Was it King Boris III, the Parliament, the Bulgarian Orthodox Church, the Jewish Consistory, the Communist Party or the ordinary people? Unlike Germany, where people generally were indifferent to the fate of the Jews, many Bulgarians, with different social status and political convictions, resisted the looming catastrophe. The book "Holocaust Averted - Bulgarian Jews in World War II" is the result of years of research, based on over one thousand books, articles, memoirs, letters and other archival materials. Reflecting the fact that Bulgaria is little known throughout the world, the book provides a concise introduction to the Bulgarian history, with special emphasis on the long and volatile cohabitation of Bulgarians and Jews, during which they often faced the same challenges. The main chapters of the book analyze the factors that averted the Holocaust in Bulgaria and especially the specific roles played by countries, organizations and individuals in those highly dramatic events. To place the World War II events in Bulgaria in a wider historical context, they are compared with the experiences of other European countries, where things developed differently. The book also covers the controversial issue about the deportation of over 11,000 Jews from the territories occupied by German and Bulgarian troops in Macedonia and Aegean Thrace. The conclusion is that history is complicated, the mechanical application of simplistic moral judgments to the war time in Bulgaria fails to explain the complexity of the behavior of all participants involved in the events. Illustrated with photographs and maps.

Download or read book Between Two Motherlands written by Theodora Dragostinova and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2011-04-15 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1900, some 100,000 people living in Bulgaria—2 percent of the country's population—could be described as Greek, whether by nationality, language, or religion. The complex identities of the population—proud heirs of ancient Hellenic colonists, loyal citizens of their Bulgarian homeland, members of a wider Greek diasporic community, devout followers of the Orthodox Patriarchate in Istanbul, and reluctant supporters of the Greek government in Athens—became entangled in the growing national tensions between Bulgaria and Greece during the first half of the twentieth century.In Between Two Motherlands, Theodora Dragostinova explores the shifting allegiances of this Greek minority in Bulgaria. Diverse social groups contested the meaning of the nation, shaping and reshaping what it meant to be Greek and Bulgarian during the slow and painful transition from empire to nation-states in the Balkans. In these decades, the region was racked by a series of upheavals (the Balkan Wars, World War I, interwar population exchanges, World War II, and Communist revolutions). The Bulgarian Greeks were caught between the competing agendas of two states increasingly bent on establishing national homogeneity.Based on extensive research in the archives of Bulgaria and Greece, as well as fieldwork in the two countries, Dragostinova shows that the Greek population did not blindly follow Greek nationalist leaders but was torn between identification with the land of their birth and loyalty to the Greek cause. Many emigrated to Greece in response to nationalist pressures; others sought to maintain their Greek identity and traditions within Bulgaria; some even switched sides when it suited their personal interests. National loyalties remained fluid despite state efforts to fix ethnic and political borders by such means as population movements, minority treaties, and stringent citizenship rules. The lessons of a case such as this continue to reverberate wherever and whenever states try to adjust national borders in regions long inhabited by mixed populations.

Download or read book The Bulgarian Jews and the Final Solution, 1940-1944 written by Frederick B. Chary and published by University of Pittsburgh Pre. This book was released on 2010-11-23 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virtually all of Bulgaria's Jewish citizens escaped the horrors of the Polish death camps and survived either to migrate to Israel or to remain in their homeland. Frederick Chary relates the history of the Bulgarian government's policy toward the Jews and how the determination and moral courage of a small country could successfully thwart the Final Solution.Dr. Chary uses the German diplomatic papers captured at the end of the war, published and unpublished Bulgarian sources, archives in Bulgaria and Israel, as well as personal interviews with survivors and former diplomats and officials to reveal intensely dramatic and moving stories-the still mysterious death of King Boris, the intrigues by which Bulgaria stalled deportation, the expulsion of Jews from the new territories, and examples of guilt, appeasement, and courage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the sizeable Jewish community living in Greece during the 1940s, German occupation of Greece posed a distinct threat. The Nazis and their collaborators murdered around ninety percent of the Jewish population through the course of the war. This new account presents cutting edge research on four elements of the Holocaust in Greece: the level of antisemitism and question of collaboration; the fate of Jewish property before, during, and after their deportation; how the few surviving Jews were treated following their return to Greece, especially in terms of justice and restitution; and the ways in which Jewish communities rebuilt themselves both in Greece and abroad. Taken together, these elements point to who was to blame for the disaster that befell Jewish communities in Greece, and show that the occupation authorities alone could not have carried out these actions to such magnitude without the active participation of Greek Christians.

Download or read book Complicated Complicity written by Martina Bitunjac and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-06-21 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Complicated Complicity is about the forms taken, motives and spectrum of actions of European collaboration with the Nazis. State authorities, local military organizations and individual players in different countries and areas including France, Scandinavia, Lithuania, Poland, Ukraine, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, Greece, Italy, Portugal and the countries of the former Yugoslavia are discussed in the context of the history of World War II, the history of occupation and everyday life and as an essential influencing factor in the Holocaust. New forms of right-wing populism, nationalism and growing intolerance of Jewish fellow citizens and minorities have made such historically sensitive studies considerably more difficult in many countries today. In this time of increasing historical revisionism in Europe, such elucidating discourse is particularly relevant.
