    Keywords: Tepper, Elsa, ; Tepper, Minna. ; Tepper, Wilhelm, ; Auschwitz (Concentration camp) ; Salaspils (Concentration camp) ; Stutthof (Concentration camp) ; Forced labor. ; Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) ; Holocaust survivors. ; World War, 1939-1945. ; Women authors. ; Lauenburg (Germany) ; Rīga (Latvia) ; Vienna (Austria) ; Autobiographies ; Biographical sources ; Memoirs
    Abstract: The memoir was written 1946 in Austria, shortly after her liberation. Minna recalls her deportation in February 1942. She was taken to Riga together with her parents and her husband. Her mother was killed upon their arrival. Her father and her husband were taken to Salaspils for forced labor, where the later perished. Minna, who was pregnant with her first child, was forced to undergo an abortion. She describes her experiences of Nazi sadism in the Ghetto of Riga, especially by the Ghetto commanders Krause and Roschmann. In 1943 Minna was taken for peat cutting labor to Olaine. In November 1943 Minna and her father were reunited at the concentration camp Kaiserwald near Riga. From there both were taken to Spilve - a labor camp at a German air base, which was under worse conditions than the first camp. They worked in the cold without appropriate shoes and in thin clothes. Due to the exhausting conditions Minna's father Wilhelm was getting weaker and eventually was deported to Auschwitz in April 1944. Minna was taken to Stutthof, which was overcrowded and in primitive conditions. They were taken to an exterior labor camp, where they had to build trenches for the German defense in the rain and cold. They suffered of constant hunger. In January 1945 the camp was dissolved and all sick and disabled were killed. They were marched under exhausting conditions in the snow and cold. For all missing women ten others were chosen randomly to be killed. After a week Minna was finally too exhausted to continue walking and stayed behind. The guard who was supposed to kill her fired the bullet over her head and left her for dead in the snow. She was rescued and brought to a house, where she was given food and a place to sleep. She was discovered by a German police officer, who was about to shoot her along with other Jewish fugitives. Minna was saved by her Viennese accent, which convinced him that she was a gentile woman.
    Abstract: She was taken to a mobile army hospital and treated for her frozen feet. In March 1945 Minna was liberated in Lauenburg, Prussia, where she was sent by German hospitals as an unidentified Jewish patient.

    Abstract: The memoir consists of a bound typescript, enriched with photocopies of photographs, documents, and letters.
    Abstract: The elaborate and thoughtful text contains many personal memories that exceed mere family life. Eric C. Fisher writes about Viennese neighborhoods, life in school, and religious differences between "assimilated" and "orthodox" Jews. Generally, it provides an account of Viennese cultural life between the wars. Fisher writes about his time with a Zionist youth organization; as well as family summer vacations in Croatia and Italy. He recalls the events of March 1938, and the beginning persecution of Jews in Austria. In spring 1939, he was incarcerated by the SS; he and other younger boys were released, but men (among them his father) were taken away. Later the family got transit visas to England, were he lived as a refugee and was interned as an enemy alien. Fisher describes in detail his transfer to Canadian camps and ends with his release in 1942, and the beginning of a new life in Montreal, Canada.

    Abstract: The memoirs were written in 1975 in the United States. Description of the author’s family background. His father Jacob Bock was a schoolteacher, who later in life became principal of a School of Business in Wiener Neustadt. His parents converted to Catholicism shortly after they got married. Childhood memories and recollections of summer vacations in Attersee, near Salzburg. Recollection of his extended family. Scarce contact with his paternal grandmother, who did not approve of her son’s conversion. Rudolf grew up in a family, where religion was hardly mentioned. His father was an outspoken Socialist. First awareness of his Jewish background at age 16. Rising antisemitism in Austria, which also influenced the atmosphere at his school. Student exchange to France in 1931. After graduation he started medical school at the Vienna University in 1933. Description of cultural life in Vienna. The author describes the atmosphere among his family and friends, who, like him, underestimated the dangers of Nazism. Anschluss to Nazi Germany in March of 1938. Life under National socialism and help from Aryan friends to continue his studies. Recollections of the November Pogrom (Kristallnacht) in 1938.

Admission to Peking Union Medical College (PUMUC) founded by the Rockerfeller Foundation, where Rudolf was able to finish his medical training. Description of life in Peking. He graduated in 1941 and specialized in ophthalmology. In the meantime his mother and grandparents arrived in Japan and lived with his brother Kurt. His sister went to England with a children’s transport. His father, who was unfit for travel at that time, died in Vienna in 1941.
