Abstract:

Before 1939, Jewish architects were active members of their profession, participating in domestic and international architectural networks and contributing to the built environment of Polish cities. From the mid-1930s, however, intensifying antisemitism and far-right political forces pressured architectural networks to exclude Jews from professional unions. The start of the Second World War and the German occupation in 1939 strained professional architectural networks but led to the formation of underground workshops, cooperatives, and other groups, whose connections extended from Warsaw through the camps and ghettos of occupied Poland. This article presents the history of Jewish-Polish architects from 1937 to 1945. Demonstrating how architectural networks reacted to changing conditions of war, occupation, and genocide, it emphasizes architectural networks as sites of political engagement, ranging from prewar antisemitic attacks on Jews and their removal from the Society of Polish Architects (SARP) to underground architectural networks that hid Jews and allowed them to work. Although the fate of Jewish architects depended largely on their relationships with their professional networks, they also actively decided how to utilize those networks to resist the Nazis and to ensure their survival. This research shows that interpersonal relationships and wartime networks were consequential in determining the wartime fates of Jewish architects and also shaped the profession’s post-war structure.

Abstract:

The study analyzes the attitude of the Greek Catholic Church towards the Jewish population in the Slovak Republic during 1939–1945. In the authoritarian political regime, this minority church was confronted with the nationalist and racial (anti-Semitic) policies of the state; a fundamentally oppositional attitude towards the regime was interpreted in the form of pastoral letters, or public appearances of its hierarch – Bishop Peter Pavel Gojdič. The study describes specific forms of help from the clergy of the Greek Catholic Church intending to rescue the Jewish population from the repressive measures and deportations of the regime. The most common form of help and rescue of Jews was baptism and the issuing of false letters on baptisms with antedated baptisms. Persecuted Jews also found help by getting presidential exemptions and issuing letters on baptisms, hiding valuables and movable property, saving their real estates from arization, and finally sheltering people from persecution and deportation.

Abstract:

The article gives an assessment of the Slovak historiography on the problem of the state of national minorities in the Slovak Republic in 1939–1945. Modern historians focus on previously unexplored topics, such as the Slovak-Hungarian borderlands, the expulsion of Czechs, the evacuation of the Carpathian Germans, the deprivation of property of the Jewish community, etc. The most studied and controversial aspects of the socio-political and economic life of the national minorities of Slovakia in the period 1939–1945 are noted.

Abstract:

The following paper aims to reconstruct the life of the siblings Olga Quandest and Karl Loewit, who lived in the city of Innsbruck during the time of National Socialism. Even though they followed the Roman Catholic faith, both of them were categorized as „Jews“ or „Mischlinge“ and therefore had to suffer from oppression, discrimination and persecution. In this paper, these individual biographies have been contextualised with macrohistorical developments and outline the conditions for Jewish spouses in so-called „Mischehen“ in the Gau Tirol-Vorarlberg between 1939 and 1945.

Abstract:

The State of Israel awarded the Greek Catholic Bishop Pavel Gojdič the title of Righteous Among the Nations in 2007. In the critical years 1939-1945, he publicly stood up for the persecuted Jews and saved many from death. The study focuses on the analysis of his personality and attitudes to the Slovak Jewish community. It reveals his way of thinking and the specific examples which show us how it was manifested in relation to the persecuted. The study also contains the attitude of the Slovak elites towards the bishop and his activities in Slovakia.

Abstract:

Summary This article presents the legal bases of operation and organisation of the special judiciary in the General Government for the occupied Polish territories. Special courts were subject to the policy pursued by the German authorities in the General Government. The German legislation in the gg delegated to the jurisdiction of special courts chiefly such criminal matters that involved safeguarding German interests in the occupied country. Adjudication in such cases boiled down to applying normative acts related to combatting serious (severe) crime or expressly pursued the German policy in the gg, including the exterminatory anti-Jewish legislation. The special courts created by the German occupier in the General Government were not judicial authorities in the traditional sense. The literature on the topic is not particularly extensive. The article would be the first comprehensive study of this subject written in English.

Abstract:

The files of the Ciechanów (Zichenau) Gestapo – one of the few remaining archives of this kind from German-occupied Poland – offer interesting insights into the social policy of the Nazi state. The Germanisation of Polish territories occurred by deporting and exterminating the Jews, depriving Poles of their rights and supporting the local Germans and the ethnic Germans resettled from the East. The German minority living in this ethnically mixed region was required to adhere to strict codes of behaviour and was held accountable for all unauthorised contacts with their Polish and, even more so, their Jewish neighbours. The system of control and repression strove to isolate the various ethnic (‘racial’) groups, encouraging denunciations and thus instilling fear in the populace. This article pays particular attention to the actions of German citizens who fell under the scrutiny of the Secret Police.

Abstract:

Although the Soviet partisan movement in the Second World War was one of a kind, in the sense that it was far more substantial than any comparable phenomenon in the West, the Jewish role within it had its own historical peculiarities. If Jewish motives for taking up arms against the occupying forces of the Third Reich were much the same as those of other partisans, they were forced to come to terms with the anti-Semitism not only of their Axis foes, but of so-called collaborators, anti-Nazi but anti-Soviet nationalists, and anti-Nazi but anti-Semitic Soviet partisans. This subject has not been explored by Soviet historians for obvious ideological reasons and the scant literature in English so far is limited largely to eye-witness accounts and insufficient statistics, which this thesis makes use of. Its purpose is to attempt to ascertain the Jewish contribution to the Soviet partisan movement and the circumstances, some of them unique, that defined it.

Abstract:

This chapter looks into the devastating impact of the Holocaust in Jewish musical creativity in Poland. It discusses the inclusion of Jewish composers in the world of Polish music by its post-1945 historians. It also examines the presence of Jewish composers in Poland's musical world before 1939 and the disappearance of these composers as shown by official publications, dictionaries, and music histories up until 1989. The chapter reviews all the composers of Jewish origin who were alive in September 1939, regardless of their attitude and relationship with Judaism. It mentions the most important composers of Jewish descent but not of Jewish faith, such as Józef Koffler, who gave up his official Jewish religious allegiance in May 1939, and Roman Palester, who was baptized Catholic as a baby.

Abstract:

Abstract The years between the Johnson Act of 1924 and the end of World War II in 1945 transformed American Jews. In fact, those years transformed all Americans. No one escaped completely from the ravages of the Great Depression during the 1930s or from World War II, which raged from 1939 to 1945 (the United States entered the war in 1941). But Jews experienced these cataclysmic events in a special way simply because they were Jewish. Even if there had been no depression and no World War II, life would have changed for American Jews after the early 1920s. Once immigration stopped, the Jewish people in the United States became more and more American Jews, comfortable with a modern, urban way of life. With immigration from Europe halted, growth in the Jewish population of the United States would result from natural increase, births outnumbering deaths. In 1927 Jews made up about 3.6 percent of the American population.

Abstract:

This chapter discusses anti-Jewish violence in twentieth-century Poland. Historical research has tended to focus on descriptions of individual riots, such as the Przytyk pogrom of March 9, 1936 and the Kielce pogrom of July 4, 1946, or on discussion of a particular historical period. There has been no attempt to explore the similarities and differences between the mechanisms of and reactions to anti-Jewish riots. The chapter looks at the link between the myth of the Jew as the ‘Threatening Other’ and eruptions of anti-Jewish excesses between 1918 and 1939 and between 1945 and 1947, concentrating on the extent to which this myth influenced the initiation and evaluation of anti-Jewish violence in these two distinctive historical periods. The term ‘violence’ refers to the following types of actions: inflicting damage on Jewish properties, including private homes, shops, institutions, and synagogues; slander; physical harassment; assaults; and murder. The chapter also outlines the socio-historical context in which the anti-Jewish violent disturbances and riots occurred in both periods.

Abstract:

This chapter explores to what extent Polish policies and attitudes helped shape British policy on the Jewish question during the Second World War. It particularly focuses on Britain's policy regarding the question of Jewish rescue in Poland. At the root of all discussion of the Jewish problem between the British and Polish governments before and during the Second World War was the emphatically and repeatedly voiced Polish desire to secure mass emigration of Jews from Poland on a scale sufficient to reduce the Jewish proportion of the general population and to diminish alleged Jewish preponderance in certain branches of the Polish economy, culture, and society. Such attitudes, commonplace in Poland in the period, reflected the widespread tendency to regard Jews as outsiders and aliens rather than as members of the Polish nation and society. The trend was noted by British observers and officials, some of whom indeed sympathized with the Polish desire to rid Poland of what was seen as its ‘excessive’ Jewish population. And of course this notion of ‘excess’ was certainly not limited to antisemites; some Jews themselves, particularly Polish Zionists, shared it. Ultimately, the Polish desire to stimulate large-scale Jewish emigration from the country was a significant element in Anglo-Polish relations in the pre-war years.

Abstract Few would deny the proposition that American Jewish life has undergone a radical transformation in the half century since the end of the Second World War. Lucy Dawidowicz, in a synoptic review of American Jewish history, recently captured this sense of major change in two chapter titles. She designated the years 1920 to 1939, “Decades of Anxiety,” and the years 1945 to 1967, “The Golden Age in America.” “Recovery and Renewal” is how Dawidowicz conceived of the postwar period as a whole.

Abstract:

Abstract On the eve of the Second World War, Poland contained the largest Jewish community in Europe, with a population of nearly three and a half million individuals. It was a Jewry with a long and distinguished history. By the middle of the eighteenth century, a Jewish community of some 750,000 people-representing at least one third of the total Jewish population worldwide-had established itself on the lands that made up the Polish-Lithuanian commonwealth. This community had prospered as a result of a marriage of convenience with the Polish nobility, which dominated pre-partition Poland and which enabled the Jews to flourish both economically and spiritually in spite of outbreaks of anti-Jewish violence such as those that accompanied the crisis of the Polish state in the middle of the seventeenth century. Jews were allowed to participate in a wide range of trades, crafts and skills, and they very frequently managed the estates of the nobility. They were the indispensable craftsmen of the rural economy in the villages and towns (shtetlekh)-the carpenters, cobblers, blacksmiths, tailors, tarmakers, and wheelwrights-occupying, as a group, a position that was unique in Europe. A rich Jewish religious and intellectual life had also developed. The yeshivot of Poland became the models for talmudic study for the rest of Europe and Polish masters of halakhah became a dominant influence in Jewish life.
