Tracing and Documenting Nazi Victims Past and Present


Book Description

After World War II, tracing and documenting Nazi victims emerged against the background of millions of missing persons and early compensation proceedings. This was a process in which the Allies, international aid organizations, and survivors themselves took part. New archives, documentation centers and tracing bureaus were founded amid the increasing Cold War divide. They gathered documents on Nazi persecution and structured them in specialized collections to provide information on individual fates and their grave repercussions: the loss of relatives, the search for a new home, physical or mental injuries, existential problems, social support and recognition, but also continued exclusion or discrimination. By doing so, institutions involved in this work were inevitably confronted with contentious issues—such as varying political mandates, neutrality vs. solidarity with those formerly persecuted, data protection vs. public interest, and many more. Over time, tracing bureaus and archives changed methods and policies and even expanded their activities, using historical documents for both research and public remembrance. This is the first publication to explore this multifaceted history of tracing and documenting past and present.




The Titanic Survivors Book Club


Book Description

From the author of The Perfume Thief, a remarkable tale about the life-changing power of books and second chances, following the Titanic librarian who opens a bookshop in Paris where he meets a secret society of survivors. "Deeply moving and rich with vivid detail . . . Timothy Schaffert is an exquisite storyteller."—Lara Prescott, New York Times bestselling author of The Secrets We Kept For weeks after the sinking of the Titanic, Yorick spots his own name among the list of those lost at sea. As an apprentice librarian for the White Star Line, his job was to curate the ship’s second-class library. But the day the Titanic set sail he was left stranded at the dock. After the ship’s sinking, Yorick takes this twist of fate as a sign to follow his lifelong dream of owning a bookshop in Paris. Soon after, he receives an invitation to a secret society of survivors where he encounters other ticket holders who didn’t board the ship. Haunted by their good fortune, they decide to form a book society, where they can grapple with their own anxieties through heated discussions of The Awakening or The Picture of Dorian Gray. Of this ragtag group, Yorick finds himself particularly drawn to the glamorous Zinnia and the mysterious Haze, and a tangled triangle of love and friendship forms among them. Yet with the Great War on the horizon and the unexpected death of one of their own, the surviving book club members are left wondering what fate might have in store. Elegant and elegiac, The Titanic Survivors Book Club is a dazzling ode to love, chance, and the transformative power of books to bring people together.

Survivor List


Book Description

In order to become completely healed, I had to reflect on the things throughout my life that contribute to the mental and emotional state that I had lived most of my life. Things that happened during my childhood continued to control me as an adult. Once I made the choice of finding who I truly was, I was able to see that even the worst of things turned out for my good. Knowing the root of the problem helps to make sense in a senseless world. Surviving Part 1 is just a glimpse of my perspective, on how things seemed as a child. How a relationship with God could look not worth it. I am a testimony that most children truly need people in their lives who are willing to truly pray for them every day. Prayer and faith do change everything. By never losing my faith and waiting on God, I can walk in favor and take all the things that hurt me to all the things I learned as a child by being nosey and use it for the God. My story is to influence others to cast all their pains, rejections, bitterness, and hurts onto the Lord. He hears all our prayers and cries. Break all chains of generational cures so that generational blessings will become the legacy left behind for others.
