A History Of The Nazi Genocide Of The Jews

Master's Thesis from the year 2014 in the subject History of Germany - National Socialism, World War II, grade: A+, Presidency College, Kolkata, language: English, abstract: The thesis maps the Jewish experience under the Nazi regime. It attempts to address the "Jewish question" after the Great War. It narrates the history of anti-Semitism, investigates the ghetto culture and finally ends with an assessment of the deadly concentration camps. "Acerbic anti-Semitism" and "rampant nationalism" resulted in the ghastly genocide of Jews or the blood-washed holocaust. The thesis operates at the interstices of three main lines of inquires: firstly, what is anti-Semitism? Secondly, what is the root cause behind the holocaust? Thirdly, how to interpret the human-made disaster or the holocaust from the contemporary perspective? The thesis explores the deplorable situation of German Jews, and other war prisoners, as encapsulated in some anecdotes like "The Ghetto Diary" by Janus Korczak. His work delineates the wretched condition of German Jews, mainly the orphan children under his care. The thesis examines the condition of the ghettos, dispersed in the German-occupied territory. After the liquidation of the "ghetto culture", European Jews were expatriated to several concentration camps, based in Germany and Poland. The dissertation briefly reviews the theories that have been advanced regarding the human-made catastrophe or the holocaust that subverted the moral strength of human civilization. 9783346755971 3346755975 0 BOOK http://books.google.com/books/content?id=Jw6FzwEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api http://books.google.com/books/content?id=Jw6FzwEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=1&source=gbs_api en 9783346755971
