They envisaged themselves as the living bridge between destruction and rebirth, the last remnants of a world destroyed and the active agents of its return to life. Much of what has been written elsewhere looks at the Surviving Remnant through the eyes of others and thus has often failed to disclose the tragic complexity of their lives together with their remarkable political and social achievements. Despite having lost everyone and everything, they got on with their lives, they married, had children and worked for a better future. They did not surrender to the deformities of suffering and managed to preserve their humanity intact. Mankowitz uses largely inaccessible archival material to give a moving and sensitive account of this neglected area in the aftermath of the Holocaust. 410 0$aStudies in the social and cultural history of modern warfare ;$v12. 517 3 $aLife between Memory & Hope 606 $aJews$zGermany$xHistory$y1945-1990 606 $aHolocaust survivors$zGermany 606 $aJewish refugees$zGermany$xHistory$y20th century 615 0$aJews$xHistory 615 0$aHolocaust survivors 615 0$aJewish refugees$xHistory 676 $a943/.004924 700 $aMankowitz$b Zeev W.$01549246 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910783123903321 996 $aLife between memory and hope$93807102 997 $aUNINA
