    Abstract: The memoir starts with the death of Gert Loellbach’s parents in a ship accident in 1932. Gert was sent to live with his aunt in Kreuznach and was suddenly confronted with rising antisemitism due to Nazi propaganda. In Kreuznach he suddenly belonged to a visible minority at school, whereas in Berlin half of the students had been Jewish. Orthodox Jewish life at his aunt’s house. Gert had been brought up in an assimilated Jewish family. He was forced to leave school before taking the final exams (Abitur) and started to work in a wood trading company of his father’s friend. Soon thereafter the company was confiscated. Gert belonged to the Jewish sports group "Kadimah". Zionist activities and agricultural education in preparation for Palestine. Incidents and threats by Nazi groups. Gert became a youth leader for the district of Essen. Preparation for the members to emigrate. Night of the November pogrom in 1938 and his arrest. He was spared deportation to a concentration camp and was freed due to the intervention of the rabbi of his home town. After his release he made his way to Berlin with the help of a nun. Endeavors to free his colleagues from the concentration camp. Difficulties to obtain visas. Plans to bring members of the Zionist groups to Palestine. Gert Loellbach’s activities were made known to the Gestapo and he had to leave the country. Exit permit for Sweden. Gert left Germany in time and started to prepare young "Hechaluzim" in Sweden for their emigration to Palestine - a program started by Emil Glueck. The outbreak of the war inhibited their further emigration. Fear of invasion of Nazi Germany in South Sweden. He worked together with the Jewish Agency and corresponded with various inmates of concentration camps, which meant a certain degree of protection for them. In 1940 Gert organized an initiative to rescue members of the Youth Aliyah and the Jewish population in Denmark after the German invasion.
    Abstract: A camp for the Jewish refugees was established near the Swedish port of Helsingborg. Difficulties to find work for the refugees. Gert was sent to Stockholm to represent the Hechaluz organization and open a "Palestinabuero" for the Jewish Agency. Reports of the fate of other refugees. Norbert Masur and the Bernadotte-Aktion to free 28.000 inmates in concentration camps in 1944.

One of her constant concerns is the absence of co-educational schools. She is well read and reviews many of the books she read. Some of the diary books also contain compositions, such as a composition comparing the biblical Jacob and the Jacob in Beer Hofmann (diary 3), essay on Joan of Arc, Max Nordau, Zweig's Nietzsche biography, Goethe's Urgoetz (diary 16). 1929 she travels to London (diary 6) and to Russia (diary 7).

    Abstract: This essay was an attempt to show that Jews had been the equals of non-Jewish front soldiers in the first World War. By showing many examples of individual heroic acts, Eugen Neter makes the point that Jewish soldiers were only identified as Jewish, if they failed in their military duties, but not if they performed heroic acts. Another section deals with the relationship between Jewish and non-Jewish soldiers. Eugen Neter concludes from his own studies that in many personal encounters religious prejudice was invisible.
    Abstract: Neter mentions German Zionists who returned from Palestine in order to participate as German soldiers in World War I; and he honors specifically the Jewish poets Hugo Zuckermann and Walter Heymann who were killed during the war.

    Abstract: In his handwritten diary, Adolf Rawitz describes in detail his war experiences as an officer in the Austrian army during World War I, and his critial attitude towards the war. Most of the letters included are addressed either to his close friend Willy or to Ilse, a woman with whom he was emotionally involved, but who did not respond in kind. As the diary progresses, entries become less and less frequent and are interspersed with personal and philosophical thoughts and comments. In late 1918, during an Italian attack, Rawitz is taken prisoner. He also senses some anti-Semitism from the Polish military. His depression increases and he expresses grave concern about his father's welfare and destiny.

    Former Title: Diary
    Keywords: Antisemitism. ; War. ; World War, 1914-1918 Jews. ; Germany. ; Autobiographies ; Diaries ; Biographical sources ; Memoirs
    Abstract: World War I diary by an unknown author. From an emotional and very personal viewpoint, the diarist expresses a changing philosophy on war and its causes. While at the outbreak of war his stance is a very nationalistic one, he later on declares war to be unacceptable and avoidable, blaming it on the press and on those in power. While he maintains that "the German people are good--they are the victims of their higher-ups", he also states that "war is a syndrome of the sickness in mankind's body". "Animals kill because of need--only man kills because of hatred". In the officialdom of his time, the diarist states, a candidate's religion and piety mattered a great deal. Being anti-Semitic and of arian origin was tantamount to gaining social acceptance. At war's end Germany is left on its knees, but instead of coming together in a common cause, a time of chaos, demoralization and individual selfishness ensued.
