Seven Essays on Bergen-Belsen

About this book

ErschĂŒtternde Essays des jĂŒdischen Überlebenden Abel Jacob Herzberg ĂŒber das Konzentrationslager Bergen-Belsen.Der niederlĂ€ndische Rechtsanwalt Abel Jacob Herzberg (geboren 1893) wurde 1943 zusammen mit seiner Frau Thea verhaftet und 1944 ĂŒber das Lager Westerbork in das Konzentrationslager Bergen-Belsen deportiert. Beide ĂŒberlebten und kehrten im Sommer 1945 nach Amsterdam zurĂŒck. Wenig spĂ€ter schrieb Abel Herzberg - noch unter dem unmittelbaren Eindruck der Haft, wĂ€hrend der er heimlich ein Tagebuch gefĂŒhrt hatte - sieben Essays, die sich aus der Sicht eines jĂŒdischen Überlebenden pointiert und analytisch mit verschiedenen Aspekten dieses Konzentrationslagers auseinandersetzen. Das thematische Spektrum reicht vom Verhalten der SS gegenĂŒber den HĂ€ftlingen bis hin zu unterschiedlichen Formen der Selbstbehauptung, aber auch den ethischen Dilemmata, denen sich die HĂ€ftlinge ausgesetzt sahen.Die Essays erschienen ab September 1945 in der Wochenzeitung »De Groene Amsterdammer", 1947 erstmals auch als eigenstĂ€ndige Publikation. 1997 erschien eine deutsche Fassung. Die hier vorliegende Ausgabe bietet erstmals eine englische Übersetzung.
