    Abstract: Diaries written by Hilde Lachmann Mosse between the age 16 and 21 (December 1928 until summer 1933). It is the diary of a teenage girl who is attending high school in Berlin. She is very idealistic, politically aware, Jewish oriented, and has clear feminist concepts. She attends lectures concerning contemporary policial events (e.g. Voelkerbund), the Reform Synagogue Youth Association (1929), has lengthy discussions with her teachers and friends (e.g. her friend Ilse Frank) concerning religious and social issues, about the violent issues of fascism, capitalism, as well as about the education of children. 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). Other activities: member of the Jewish Youth Club, Association Internationale des Etudiants de Boulogne, playing tennis (Blau-Weiss), studying violin, rowing, working on her special subject "History of socialism", member of the Zugscharen, a leftist organisation. In 1930 she presents a paper at the Jewish Youth Conference in London (diary 14).

    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.
