    Abstract: Is it a glass centerpiece--or is it really two faces? The familiar optical illusion known as the Rubin Vase embodies the complexities of the brain's recognition of visual figures and backgrounds. Its creator's accomplishments, however, extend far beyond this well-known concept. Edgar Rubin and Psychology in Denmark tours a tumultuous century of history, politics, culture, and thought as reflected in the intellectual life of Denmark following the Golden Age of Kierkegaard and H. C. Andersen. Rubin's scholarly journey takes him from the debate over the scientific study of "the soul" to the maturation of perceptual psychology, providing both human context for our modern understanding of consciousness and a timeline for the recognition of psychology as science. Besides his revolutionary discoveries in visual perception, less-known aspects of his work are explored, such as his observations on taste and the perception of speech, as is his relationship--and reluctant contribution--to Gestalt theory. In these pages, Rubin is portrayed as a thinker simultaneously of his time and place and distinctly universal and modern. Included in this fascinating biography: The role of philosophy in the development of psychology. From psychophysics to experimental psychology. The education of psychologists. Rubin and the phenomenological approach in psychology. The impact of Rubin’s work on Visually Experienced Figures and why it still resonates today. Setback and perseverance during World War Two. Niels Bohr and Edgar Rubin. Rubin's later work and legacy to modern psychology. For those interested in the history of psychology and the history of ideas, and for students and specialists in perceptual psychology, Edgar Rubin and Psychology in Denmark will inform, inspire, and even delight

    Keywords: Saint-Cyprien (Concentration camp) ; Emigration and immigration. ; Kindertransports (Rescue operations) ; Kristallnacht, 1938. ; Belgium. ; France. ; Shanghai (China) ; Autobiographies ; Biographical sources ; Memoirs
    Abstract: The memoir is a translation of a diary written originally in Shanghai, during August and September of 1941, accompanied by clarifying correspondence and notes.
    Abstract: The memoir starts on March 6, 1939, the day when Jerry (Gerhard) Breuer was forced to say goodbye to Vienna. He went to Brussels, Belgium, on a Kindertransport. In 1940, on the day Germany invaded Belgium, he was arrested in Brussels. He was sent on a train (which had the letters “fifth column” written on it) to Camp St. Cyprien, France, which is described in detail. The memoir ends with the departure on his ship to Shanghai.
    Abstract: Also enclosed are 14 "Close shaves" by Jerry Breuer: The first "shave" describes the experience of “Kristallnacht” in November of 1938; he was arrested and brought to the Gestapo headquarters in the first district of Vienna, but then he was released because of his young age. The second episode is about the Kindertransport he took to get out of Nazi-Germany. The next episode is entitled “The certificate”, about the permission to enter the French Concession in Shanghai on May 5, 1939. Episode 4 happened when Jerry's train was bombed. The next one is about money being returned to him at Camp St. Cyprien. Then he resisted to be released from St. Cyprien camp. He lost his luggage on his way to Marseille, which helped sneak past some guards. He had an encounter with a friendly police officer who refused to send him to an internment camp; and he was lent money to pay for his exit visa. The final events took place on the voyage to Shanghai: once they were threatended by an ugly storm; the other time he was accused by a Dutch officer of being a spy for the German army, looking "too blond" for being a Jew.

    Abstract: The diary by Emmy Rosenbaum is dedicated to her children; it was probably written in the Dominican Republic, in early 1939. The first chapter "March 1938" (14 pages) covers events after 'Anschluss' in Gmuend, Lower Austria, such as the loss of her husband's factory. They escaped to Vienna, where her husband’s colleague was Consul of the Dominican Republic and provided them with visas. At the same time, they registered for US visas. The chapter closes with a description of "Kristallnacht". The second chapter “Ciudad Trujillo, Feb.11, 1939” (15 pages) covers their emigration to the Dominican Republic. The third chapter “Ciudad Trujillo, March 15, 1939” (8 pages) is about settling down in Santo Domingo and the difficulties of adapting to the new culture.
