Abstract:
The memoirs are written in form of two letters. In the first letter "Besuch in Wien - Juni 1999", Hans Fliegel tells about his experiences on his visit to Vienna in May/June 1999 (following an invitation by the Jewish Welcome Service). He describes a walk in Vienna, mainly the second district, and as he stops in front of buildings with a personal significance for him, he unfolds parts of his family history, memories of family businesses and apartments.
Abstract:
In the second letter "Ernuechterung - fuer immer verdammt?!", Mr. Hans Fliegel gives an overview of the history of European Jewry, the Jews in Vienna, and his views of Austria before, during and after World War II. He also reflects his own experiences.
