Carl Berthold Attaining Aryan Ancestry

“Ten minutes later, we were in front of the warehouse. A German employee, a civilian, the meister, came to meet us. He paid us about as much attention as a dealer might who was just receiving a delivery of old rags.” (58)

In my opinion, the author gives an interesting logic to the audience. More often than not, we tend to judge people without knowing more about them. Actually, in most cases, we tend to stereotype them according to the shallow information we have about the general character of their background. We rarely pause and ask ourselves why they behave like that. We just pass judgment, which mostly is usually biased and reasoned according to our background. No time is given to them to give their side of the story; our summary judgment is usually final. “’Jew bastards will charge me if you break anything’ he cursed” (70). Without any prior knowledge

Due to the fact that in Germany, 1933, Hitler began to rise to power, persuading people to either follow him or fear him. His power began to strengthen, which caused Jewish Germans and non-Hitlerites to fret for what was to come. Since he thought that the ideal German had fair skin, blonde hair, and blue eyes, which did fit for the first main character introduce: Friedrich. Friedrich grew up in this environment and he and his father did not go along with Adolf Hitler's rule. Friedrich was not Jewish, but he had a rather l large birthmark on his check and had epilepsy as a baby. Elisabeth, his older sister who is in the League of German Girls, stated, “He was always a candidate with the birthmark alone. And now with epilepsy, it is certain.” (p. 100).Although he isn't Jewish, he is still discriminates against because he looks different. Also at school, the way Friedrich looked caused him to be bullied and transferred to homeschooling. Bullying has and still is causing millions of tragedies at schools worldwide. People are still looked at differently, because if the way they look, even though 84 years have

Describe: Liesel and her best friend, Rudy Steiner, has been walking through town when a woman in a window above them looks to the streets and announces, “Die Juden;” The Jews. This is when a vast amount of Jewish prisoners begins to march their way down Munich Street while Nazi soldiers barked orders at them. To everyone, especially Liesel (who had a Jewish person living in her basement), this was the furthest thing from a pleasant sight. And apparently, Hans Hubermann had enough of this, as if being controlled by God himself, Hans walked over and offered a particularly weak Jew a piece of bread out of pure sympathy, only to be beaten by overlooking Nazis.

Furthermore, Appelfeld also isolated himself to hide his true identity, however he was also isolated during the beginning of his new life as the result of a language barrier with his own people, which further resulted in suppressing the anger he felt towards his parents for straying away from the Jewish culture. The abandonment of Tzili’s family, mistreatment of other people she encountered, and the stillbirth of her baby are just a few points of sadness expressed within the story. These situations of sadness help express what it might have been like to live through such a horrific event as the Holocaust. This is done by paralleling these stories and using a fictitious work, Tzili, to accentuate key points in Appelfeld’s own true story of survival.

There are many problems with gangs in prison. These gangs cause problems and threaten the well-being of others who don’t fit into their mindset or beliefs. This problem has been going on for a long time, and has cost the prison system a lot of money throughout the country.

The Burgermeister’s Daughter by Steven Ozment delivers a captivating and thorough discussion of one woman’s struggle in contradiction of the social prejudices and justice system of her hometown in sixteenth-century Germany. While the life and times of Anna Buschler, (the Burgermeister’s daughter) is a central theme in the work, Ozment discusses many other contextual elements of German society which provide the framework through which Anna’s struggles are to be perceived. Ozment’s intent in writing such a narrative was most accurately discerned in the final chapter of the book entitled “The Moral” in which the author homed in on a few elements which contributed to the greater picture he endeavored to present.

I have to admit that I had lost contact with my dear Jew friend, Aaron Bauer. It was unfortunate, but I sincerely believed that our decision was to lift each other’s burden and to protect this friendship. Integrating with one another had been a grave danger for both my wife and I, and Bauer understood our situations. I was no longer part of our secret Communist cell, for most of our Jewish members had dissolved into their separate ways following the aftermath of the Nuremberg Laws. Moreover, my wife and I had been busy with our full-time employment in the Volkswagen factory, for the KdF had promise us many trips and also the “People’s car.” There was time when I was excited about the KdF, but I immediately direct my thoughts to my Communists

The Inspector, who had been sent to solve the case, had formed a theory that placed focused on a Christian butcher. Wilhelm Bruhn, the publisher of Die Staatsburgerzeitung, then interfered by convincing Bernhard Masloff, a laborer, to testify against a Jewish butcher. The story that Masloff gave would directly conflict with the theory that the Inspector had formed. This created more subject matter that the anti-Semitic newspapers could use to fuel their tirade.

When Stein, a forgotten relative, approached Eliezer and his father on their eight day of living in the concentration camp, Auschwitz, he wanted information on his wife and two kids whom Eliezer's mother had corresponded with in the past. Stein and his family had been separated two years ago and he desperately wanted to know how they were doing. While Eliezer did not have any knowledge about Stein's family, caught between indecision, he decided to lie. He

Nechama Tec’s autobiography Dry Tears: The Story of a Lost Childhood tells the narrative of her experiences as a young Jewish girl in Nazi occupied Poland during the second World War. Nechama was able to survive, and protect her family, through the Holocaust by hiding her true identity and pretending to be Polish. She was able to do this because of her blond hair, light skin, blue eyes, and ability to speak unaccented Polish, which made her physically indistinguishable from an “Aryan” child. Nechama Tec’s story emphasizes the themes of identity, cultural assimilation, and passing, both socially and physically, as something that you are not, while also attempting to convey the entirely contradictory, hypocritical,

Many came and watched as the train flew by. The townspeople looked at them like one would an exotic animal. They began to throw bread into the wagon, waiting for the amusement that would follow. “Meir. Meir, my boy! Don’t you recognize me? I’m your father…you’re hurting me…you’re killing father! I’ve got some bread…for you too…for you too….” (101). Life was so dreadful for them under Nazi control that a son would kill his father for a small crust of bread. Their time in the camp devolved them into primitive people with animal-like characteristics who cared only for their own survival. The Nazis treatment of the Jews brought out their instinct for survival like wild animals who care for no one but

The historiographical analysis will be created by using sources and material both from written documentation such as books, novels, journals, and statements as well as media outlets such as film and newspapers. The most prominent elements and features of the essay will explore, elaborate and examine the historiographical viewpoints from different historians that both support as well as betray the belief of Speer ever being a 'Good Nazi' in the terms of both his involvement with the usage of slave labour, as well as his involvement with the ‘Scorched Earth’ order. It shall delve into the various Historian ideas of how it is that Speer managed to create an aspiring character construction of himself as a ‘Good Nazi’ during his time during the trails of Nuremberg as well as considering controversial elements of alternate historical views on the topic that it may be the case that Speer was simply just an opportunistic architect who had been using the popularity of the Nazis for his own self-gain, whilst ultimately being misguided into the inner circles of National Socialist politics.[

Hart, a legal positivist, believes that “law is law,” and argued against Radbrunch’s theory in servings as a solution to fix Germany’s judicial system. He argued against his theory and wanted a separation of law and morality because he thought that it would only “cloak the true nature of the problems,” and encourage a “romantic optimism,” rather than addressing the dilemma that the courts had in deciding on convicting Nazi criminals. Though Hart acknowledges that this case poses a difficult situation for the law, he does propose his own solution to the problem. With his positivist approach to the law, saying that the laws are the rules expected of us, and enforced at a particular time, he proposes that the “grudge informer” should be punished through a different and ‘new’ set of laws. These laws he deems “retrospective laws,” would entail punishing acts such as revenge and duplicity. However, this dilemma between choosing if the “grudge informer” was innocent
