    Abstract: The memoir was written in 1988 in Berlin, Germany. The author describes his childhood in a protestant environment in Freiburg. Helmut Krueger had only sporadic contact to his wide-spread Jewish relatives. His mother Camilla was born in Vienna, where she started her training as an actress with Ferdinand Gregori. Her parents were the Jewish lithograph Eduard Ezechiel Joseph Davidson from Den Haag and Rebecca Stern from Hungary. Helmut's father Max Krueger was a theater director in Konstanz, Muenster and Freiburg. His parents met in Muenster, where both of them were engaged in theater productions. They married in 1912. Max Helmut was born in 1913, Answald in 1918 and in 1923 their sister Brigitte. In 1923 Max Krueger was offered a position in Freiburg, where the family lived until 1932. Rising political tensions in the 1930s. With Hitler's take-over in 1933 his father was forced to resign from his position. Helmut was arrested due to his affiliation to the communist party. His mother decided to convert to Protestantism in order to protect her family. Move to Berlin. With difficulties Helmut continued his interrupted studies at the Technical University in Charlottenburg, Berlin. Increasing persecution of "non-Aryans" and life between hope and despair. Answald and Brigitte were expelled from school due to their "non-Aryan" heritage. Brigitte found refuge in a Swedish Protestant church, where she worked as a secretary and escaped persecution. Terror of the November Pogrom of 1938 in Berlin. Helmut graduated from university in 1939 and was enlisted in the German army. His brother Answald and Helmut were able to remain in the army until 1941. In this way they hoped to be able to protect their family.
    Abstract: After his dismissal as "non-Aryan" Helmut worked as a construction manager of subway bunkers in Berlin and Brest. Increasing difficulties in his position. In 1942 his fiance Hertha was expecting a child. Due to his heritage they were not able to legalize their relationship and lived together under restricted circumstances. Their child Christine Gabriele was born in November 1942. Helmut found an apartment for his mother in the outskirts of Berlin, where he hoped she would be able to remain undiscovered. In 1944 she was denounced and deported to Theresienstadt. In 1945 Answald and Helmut were taken to a forced labor camp for "Organization Todt". Liberation and interrogation by the Americans.

    Abstract: Max Mautner's memoir provides a detailed account of daily life and suffering in Vienna during the first years after the Anschluss. During some of that time, Mautner was working at a Jewish office in Vienna distributing food stamps. The second part of the memoir is dedicated to the concentration camp Theresienstadt, where he was deported to in 1942. Mautner remembers terrible diseases and work conditions. After some time he was employed as a guard, first at a manufactory, then at the one and only coffee house at Theresienstadt. His account then covers the liberation of Theresienstadt by the Russian army, his time at the displaced persons camp at Deggendorf, Germany, and finally a transport of 800 orphans to Palestine, which he accompanied. The memoir ends with the formal establishment of Israel in 1948.

    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.

    Year of publication: 1939
    Keywords: Parsonnet, Mia (nee Eimer), ; Jews History 1918-1938. ; 1918-1938 ; Emigration and immigration ; Kristallnacht, 1938. ; Jews History 1918-1938. ; Women authors. ; Austria History Anschluss, 1938. ; Autobiographies ; Biographical sources ; Memoirs
    Abstract: This diary entry (translation from German original) was written on February 8, 1939, just ten days before Mia Parsonnet's family was about to leave Vienna for good. It sums up the three years that had passed after she had written her last diary entry. The first memories cover vacations in the Austrian countryside, followed by the entrance exams for the Academy of Music in Vienna. But the main part of the diary entry is about the events of the "Anschluss" in March 1938, and its consequences--the persecution, imprisonment of family members. Mia Parsonnet remembers in detail listening to Czech radio during the "Czechoslovak Crisis" when Czechoslovakia initiated a partial mobilization in response to rumours of German troop movements. The next threatening event was the pogrom in November 1938, the "Kristallnacht". Mia Parsonnet provides a detailed and intriguing account of the events when the Gestapo tried to get hold of her father who was hiding in the basement. On February 1, 1939, the torture was nearly over for Mia Parsonnet--she got her affidavit for the USA.
