The Routledge Handbook to Auschwitz-Birkenau (Routledge, 2026) examines Auschwitz-Birkenau as both a site and a symbol of Nazi genocide. Scholars from a range of disciplinary perspectives consider Auschwitz's history by engaging with Holocaust historiography and its place in Holocaust memory and representation, illustrating their mutual influence. The chapters bring new insights to topics that other studies of Auschwitz have explored before, such as the Sonderkommando, the Czech family camp, and literary representations of Auschwitz. Other chapters cover recent developments and more neglected areas, such as the experience and memory of Romani prisoners, the fate of Soviet prisoners of war, and Auschwitz's presence on social media.

Stotridsať kilometrov a šesť dní pochodu po stopách dvoch ľudí, ktorým sa pred 82 rokmi podarilo niečo, čo sa zdalo nemožné – utiecť z koncentračného a vyhladzovacieho tábora Auschwitz-Birkenau. O tom, čo v tomto pekle na zemi prežili a ako sa im podarilo z neho uniknúť si môžete prečítať dve strhujúce knihy – Utiekol som z Osvienčimu od Rudolfa Vrbu a Čo Dante nevidel od Alfréda Wetzlera. Tento príbeh však môžete zažiť aj na vlastnej koži. Už od roku 2014 skupina aktívnych ľudí organizuje pochod, ktorý kopíruje únikovú trasu dvojice väzňov a dvoch spomínaných autorov. Je to spôsob, ako vzdať hold nielen týmto dvom hrdinom, ale uctiť si aj pamiatku všetkých obetí holokaustu. Dnes už ide o široko rešpektované podujatie, na ktoré sa každoročne prihlasujú desiatky účastníkov. S čím všetkým sa strednú ľudia, ktorí sa vydajú na túto cestu? A čo vlastne znamená pre nich táto skúsenosť? Jaro Valent sa rozpráva s organizátormi pochodu z občianskeho združenia Vrba-Wetzler Memorial - s Tomášom Bartoňkom a Marošom Feketem.

Elle est déportée au camp de Ravensbrück puis de Mauthausen. Joseph, juif et résistant, est arrêté quelques mois plus tard, Gare du Midi à Bruxelles, et déporté à Auschwitz-Birkenau. C'est après leur libération, à bord d'un train de la Croix-Rouge, que Betty et Joseph se rencontrent. Cinq enfants grandissent dans l'ombre de ce couple singulier, beau et meurtri. Cinq enfants pour reconstruire une famille décimée, celle de Joseph, dont le père et les quatre frères et soeurs ont été assassinés dans les camps. Petite, Myriam Spira écoutait ses parents raconter : la faim, le froid, les souffrances, la douleur des expériences médicales.

Rudolf Höss har blivit sinnebilden för den byråkratiske massmördaren – en känslokall tjänsteman som metodiskt genomförde Hitlers ”slutgiltiga lösning”. Som kommendant i Auschwitz-Birkenau byggde han upp det största nazistiska utrotningskomplexet och är direkt ansvarig för morden på över en miljon människor.Trots sina omänskliga brott lyckades Höss i viss mån forma eftervärldens bild av sig själv genom den självbiografi han skrev i fängelset före avrättningen i Polen den 16 april 1947. I texten ger han en närmast uttryckslös redogörelse för sina handlingar, något som både fascinerat och förskräckt eftervärlden. Hur kunde en människa begå så obeskrivliga brott, erkänna dem utan synbar ånger – och till synes inte känna skuld?Rudolf Höss skiljer sig från många andra nazistledare genom att han utan omsvep erkände sina brott och angav sina medbrottslingar. Trots att han "bara" var en mellanchef i nazismens mordmaskineri är han ansvarig för dödandet av omkring 1,1 till 1,5 miljoner människor i Auschwitz – framför allt judar, men även romer, sovjetiska krigsfångar och andra.I reprisen av avsnitt 102 av podden Historia Nu samtalar programledaren Urban Lindstedt med kulturjournalisten och författaren Nicklas Sennerteg, som är aktuell med boken Allt jag känner är att mina fötter gör ont – Förhören med Rudolf Höss (Historiska Media). Genom en kritisk granskning av Höss berättelse belyser Sennerteg nya perspektiv på en av historiens mest fruktansvärda gärningsmän – och avslöjar hur mytbildningen kring honom vuxit fram.Förhören med Höss har blivit en viktig källa till förståelsen av det tredje rikets komplexa, ofta överlappande mördarbyråkrati. Men trots den rikliga dokumentationen är det flera detaljer i hans berättelse som inte stämmer. Forskare som Nicklas Sennerteg har identifierat luckor och osanningar i hans självbiografi – bland annat saknas belägg för att Höss skulle ha deltagit i första världskriget, vilket han själv hävdade. Dessutom gick han med i det nazistiska partiet så sent som 1933. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Sinopsis:Catalina y Esteban sobrevivieron a la Shoá. Ella pasó por Auschwitz-Birkenau, él por trabajos forzados y el combate en la guerra. Se conocieron en Budapest por casualidad, emigraron a Argentina y empezaron de cero. En los talleres de la familia aprendieron que hacer zapatos era también hacer memoria, dejar huella, construir futuro. De esa historia que bien podría no haber existido nació Ricky Sarkany, cuarta generación de zapateros, quien construyó una de las marcas más queridas de Argentina. Su primera pasión fue el ajedrez, pero encontró en la creación su verdadero destino: transformar un pedazo de cuero en un objeto de deseo. Este libro es su autobiografía: el relato de quien aprendió a pensar, hacer y comunicar. Que enfrentó la pérdida más grande que puede tocarle a un padre y descubrió que trascender no está en perpetuar un apellido, sino en dejar algo con propósito. Sarkany edificó su empresa en una Argentina de crisis recurrentes. Sobrevivió a hiperinflaciones y devaluaciones. Durante la pandemia de COVID, cuando todo se detuvo, encontró la forma de sostener a su equipo y seguir vendiendo. Viajó a Nueva York para inspirarse, volvió siempre a los talleres de Buenos Aires, construyó una familia que es su orgullo. En estas páginas recorre todos esos momentos y muchos más, guiado por la certeza que sus padres le transmitieron y él comparte a los lectores: lo mejor está por venir.

Good Morning. ‘Speak about hope:' I hear those words everywhere in these frightening times At synagogue, we've just read the Ten Commandments, beginning with ‘I am your God.' Two rabbis whose teachings I admire experienced those words very differently. The struggle for hope lies in the tension between their explanations. Hugo Gryn, whose warm voice, often heard on radio, I hugely miss, survived Auschwitz. He wrote: Auschwitz-Birkenau was the … perversion of all the Ten Commandments… God was replaced by a Fuehrer and his minions who claimed for themselves the power of life and death… Murder was at the heart of that culture and killers were promoted and honoured… That's what ‘I am your God' reminded him of. Nazism is gone, but tyranny, killing and contempt are at large in our world, threatening our freedoms and future. Rabbi Yehudah Aryeh-Leib of Ger, who died last century, intuited a very different voice in the Commandments. He wrote: When God said, ‘I am,' the world fell silent; every living being listened. They heard the words not from Heaven, but within themselves. They felt: “This is about who I truly am. The life-force which flows through everything is speaking to me.” In that moment, a deep awareness connected all existence, humans, animals, every breathing being, and cruelty and hatred vanished. I believe that may be what we feel when humbled by some act of kindness; when touched by closeness to another person; when silenced by listening to the birds; when we sense in woodlands: ‘These trees – some hidden life-force connects us.' A consciousness infinitely greater than ‘Me, me, me,' flows through us then. It's what Wordsworth called: A motion and a spirit, that impels All thinking things, all objects of all thought, And rolls through all things.Here lies a quiet, but powerful, antidote to the horror Rabbi Gryn was forced to experience, when tyrants replaced god, dictating who must live or die. Here is an understanding that motivates us to love and give. I think of my Israeli friend, who despite the violence afflicting both peoples, supported her Palestinian colleague who bravely made soup in Gaza for hungry children. I'm mindful of the Ukrainian grandma, since killed, who refused to leave her front-line home in Kherson and, despite the bombing, sent me a gift of honey. What makes people do that? I believe it's the deeper voice that calls us, beyond all differences and hatreds, to care for each other and our world. In that voice lies our hope.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, individuals should never arm themselves or interfere with federal law enforcement (particularly ICE) during protests aimed at obstructing arrests of illegal aliens, even those with criminal records, as such actions are criminal, dangerous, and not protected by the Second Amendment, free speech, or assembly rights. American citizens deserve safe communities protected by immigration enforcement, while sanctuary policies by states and cities unconstitutionally usurp federal plenary power over immigration, echoing Confederate nullification tactics and risking national disunity. The Democrat Party deliberately engineers massive illegal immigration through open borders, non-enforcement, census manipulation, and birthright citizenship to secure long-term political power, culminating in a strategy to weaken or eliminate ICE and prioritize party dominance over national interests, with some Republicans yielding to these pressures. Also, the Islamist issue is a major threat. There's this emergence of segregated Islamist compounds and large communities strategically appearing across the U.S., particularly in Republican strongholds like Texas and Florida, funded by enormous sums of money and forming numerous footholds. There are already no-go areas in places like Dearborn, Michigan, mirroring trends in Europe and in France and England. Later, today is Holocaust Remembrance Day. On January 27, 1945, the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp was liberated. 6 million Jewish people were murdered during the Holocaust, and the ugly, insane hate for Jewish people is spreading like a metastasizing cancer throughout the world today -- including in our country. The Islamists, Marxists, and Neo-Fascists are openly and aggressively preaching death to the Jewish people and violently attacking Jewish people, egged on by, among others, podcasters, entertainers, foreign governments, billionaire dark money, and others. Unfortunately, the voices of Jew-hatred are loud and numerous and growing. It will take many more of us to counter what is taking place and pushback against this awful hatred.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Master Sgt. Ran Gvili, the final hostage that was kept in Gaza, is buried today. Last night, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu held a wide-ranging press conference, during which he raised unusual allegations against the Biden administration. We hear from Berman about the mood in the room and the premier's two remaining foci -- dismantling Hamas’s weapons and demilitarizing Gaza of arms and tunnels. During the press conference, Berman asked Netanyahu about the changing rhetoric out of Saudi Arabia, which is increasingly aligning itself with actors such as Pakistan and Turkey. We learn what the premier had to say. Yesterday, International Holocaust Remembrance Day was observed across the world. January 27 marks the anniversary of the liberation by Soviet forces of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the most notorious of the Nazi German death camps. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky marked the day at the Babyn Yar ravine outside of Kyiv, where Nazis and their collaborators murdered more than 33,000 Jews in a two-day rampage in 1941.

A Digital Lens interdiszciplináris kutatócsoportban a digitális történettudomány és a computational social science innovatív módszereivel dolgozunk, nem a hagyományos módszereket kirekesztve, hanem azokat kiegészítve. Vizsgálatunk alapját a Deportáltakat Gondozó Országos Bizottság (DEGOB) által felvett közel 3 600 jegyzőkönyv képezi, amiben több mint 5 000, deportálásból frissen visszatért túlélő vallomása szerepel.Kutatási kérdéseink a holokauszt nyelviségéhez, a férfiak és nők eltérő tapasztalataihoz és az üldöztetés topográfiájához kapcsolódnak. Az előadásban elsősorban az utóbbiról lesz szó. Kutatásunk során interaktív térképeken ábrázoltuk a Beregszászból, Sátoraljaújhelyről és a IV. deportálási zónából elhurcoltak útvonalait. Az adatok egyértelműen megmutatják, hogy Auschwitz-Birkenau a legtöbb túlélő számára csak az első állomás volt. A deportáltakat további számos kényszermunka-táborokba hurcolták a német háborús igényeknek megfelelően. Az előadás során nemcsak az eredményeket, hanem azokat a kihívásokat is bemutatom, amivel munkánk során szembesültünk.

Dario Disegni"Seeing Auschwitz"Uno sguardo su Auschwitzhttps://seeing-auschwitz.com/Cento scatti rilevano le atrocità inflitte a più di un milione di persone nel più grande centro di sterminio della storiafino al 31 marzo 2026Archivio di Stato di TorinoSezione Corte – piazzetta Mollino, 1La mostra fotografica Seeing Auschwitz presenta oltre cento scatti realizzati tra il 1941 e il 1944 all'interno del campo di sterminio nazista. Le immagini compongono un reportage di straordinaria forza documentaria sulla vita e sulla morte di oltre un milione di prigionieri.L'esposizione offre un triplice sguardo sul più grande centro di sterminio della storia. Da un lato vi sono le fotografie scattate in gran parte dei carnefici nazisti, che documentano le diverse fasi del processo di eliminazione dei deportati, dall'arrivo nel campo fino alle camere a gas. A queste si affiancano alcuni rari scatti realizzati clandestinamente dai prigionieri, che restituiscono il punto di vista delle vittime. Completa il percorso lo sguardo degli Alleati, che sorvolando l'area riprendono dall'alto ciò che accade.Commissionata nel 2020 da ONU e UNESCO e realizzata dall'ente culturale spagnolo Musealia in collaborazione con il Museo Statale di Auschwitz-Birkenau, la mostra è già stata ospitata in importanti sedi internazionali tra cui Madrid, Londra, Parigi e diverse città degli Stati Uniti. L'arrivo a Torino è reso possibile grazie alla Comunità Ebraica di Torino, alla Fondazione di Studi Storici Gaetano Salvemini, all'Ambasciata di Polonia in Italia e all'ospitalità dell'Archivio di Stato.L'esposizione si articola in nove aree tematiche distribuite in quattro spazi. Pur nella durezza del tema e nella forza delle immagini originali, Seeing Auschwitz è concepita come una mostra divulgativa, pensata anche per essere proposta alle scuole.Fortemente voluta e organizzata dalla Comunità Ebraica di Torino con la Fondazione di studi storici Gaetano Salvemini, l'Ambasciata di Polonia in Italia e l'Archivio di Stato, che ha dato anche la disponibilità ad accoglierla, questa mostra racconta per la prima volta, attraverso un triplice punto di vista, lo sterminio perpetuato con meccanica sistematicità dai nazisti durante la Seconda guerra mondiale. Infatti, la selezione di circa cento scatti realizzati tra il 1941 e il 1944 e ritrovata fortunosamente dalla deportata ad Auschwitz Lilly Jacob nel 1945 quando fu liberata a Dora, è in gran parte stata riprodotta dalle SS, ma anche dagli stessi prigionieri e dagli alleati che sorvolavano l'area. Una triplice ottica che sottolinea piani emotivi moltodiversi.La storia raccontata per immagini: scatti crudi, autentici e forti che trascinano il visitatore nel qui e ora del campo di concentramento e sterminio nazista di Auschwitz. La foto come strumento che attesta e documenta il protocollo operativo dello sterminio degli ebrei dall'ingresso al campo, alla schedatura, all'avvio alla morte, realizzate dalle SS sono parte dell'“Auschwitz Album”. Questo nucleo fotografico si contrappone alle cinque rare immagini scattate clandestinamente dai prigionieri stessi dall'interno delle baracche, a cui si affiancano un paio di dettagliati schizzi, in presa diretta, dall'interno delle camere a gas. L'introduzione dell'apparecchio fotografico che ha consentito questo prezioso reportage è stata opera della resistenza polacca.A completare la lettura di una pagina storica drammatica, le foto scattate durante le ricognizioni aeree degli alleati.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

In this episode of Explaining History, Nick revisits Nikolaus Wachsmann's monumental study, KL: A History of the Nazi Concentration Camps.We explore a critical and often misunderstood aspect of the Holocaust: the relationship between the Concentration Camps (KL) and the extermination camps of the East. Why were Jews initially marginalized within the KL system? How did the failure of the war against the Soviet Union in 1941 shift Nazi policy from the exploitation of Soviet POWs to the mass enslavement and murder of Jews?We delve into the infamous Wannsee Conference, decoding the euphemisms of "resettlement" and "natural wastage," and examine how chaotic decision-making at the top of the Nazi hierarchy led to the transformation of Auschwitz-Birkenau into an industrial center of death.Plus: Stay tuned for an announcement about an upcoming live masterclass on the Russian Revolution and Stalinism for students.Key Topics:The KL vs. Death Camps: Understanding the distinction between camps like Dachau and extermination centers like Treblinka.The Wannsee Conference: How bureaucrats planned genocide over lunch.Annihilation Through Labour: The shift from Soviet POWs to Jewish slave labour.The Transformation of Auschwitz: How Birkenau became the primary site for the "Final Solution."Books Mentioned:KL: A History of the Nazi Concentration Camps by Nikolaus WachsmannThe Third Reich at War by Richard J.

KALMAN & LEOPOLD: SURVIVING MENGELE'S AUSCHWITZ In the shadow of the infamous Auschwitz-Birkenau extermination camp, Kalman and Leopold— two young boys—meet as unwitting subjects of Josef Mengele's twisted twin experiments. Pulled from their barrack, they are forced to become servants to the SS guards within Mengele's "hospital" camp, bearing daily witness to scenes of obscene viciousness. Within this nightmarish hell Leopold becomes Kalman's guide, helping him to navigate the terrifying complexities of the SS guard shack. Mengele's atrocities are relentless, yet within this darkness a friendship emerges, testament to the resilience of the human spirit. In January 1945, the Russian army liberates Birkenau and the boys part ways. For fifty-six years Kalman searches tirelessly for his friend and protector, driven by the memory of a boy he knew only by a nickname he had given him: Lipa. Their story is a reminder of the depths of human immorality, and it is a testament to friendship, faith, and survival against all odds. As intolerance and hate intensify in the world, Kalman and Leopold's voices echo across generations, urging us to remember the horrors of fascism so that history's darkest moments remain in the past. Never again! TOPICS OF CONVERSATION About Kalman & Leopold: Teenage twins who survived Mengele's Auschwitz experiments. Reunited After 56 Years: A chance TV sighting leads to an emotional reconnection. Their Words, Their Voices: 20 hours of raw interviews told exactly as they spoke them. Inside the Guard Shack: A chilling, firsthand look at life beside Mengele's hospital camp. More Than Survival: A story of resilience, decency, dignity, and moral courage.

A Living Legacy: Their story endures as a call for empathy and remembrance. Looking Ahead: Hopes to share Kalman and Leopold's story on screen for future generations.   ABOUT THE AUTHOR Richard K. Lowy is the son of Leopold, one of the young survivors whose extraordinary story is told in Kalman & Leopold: Surviving Mengele's Auschwitz. Inspired by his father's resilience and the lessons of history, Richard has dedicated himself to sharing their remarkable journey with readers around the world. Through the book, he brings to life the experiences of two teenagers who faced unimaginable horrors in Auschwitz and emerged with a powerful message of courage, hope, and the importance of remembering. As a storyteller, Richard bridges the personal and the historical, showing how the experiences of the past can resonate deeply with today's readers—especially young adults seeking stories that are both relatable and profoundly moving.

Cześć! W najnowszym odcinku serii Powojnie opowiem Wam o jednym z najtragiczniejszych miejsc w dziejach świata. Tym razem spojrzę na Auschwitz nie przez pryzmat II wojny światowej i niemieckiej fabryki śmierci, lecz tego, co działo się tam tuż po wyzwoleniu obozu przez Armię Czerwoną. To temat praktycznie nieobecny w polskich mediach, a wydarzyło się naprawdę wiele.Sowieci utworzyli w Auschwitz obóz jeniecki dla Niemców. Na terenie kompleksu powstał też ogromny szpital, w którym byli więźniowie próbowali odzyskać siły po pobycie w tym piekle. Lekarze walczyli o życie ludzi wycieńczonych gruźlicą, zapaleniem płuc i chorobą głodową. A co stało się z ciałami ofiar pozostawionymi w obozie? Czy odbyły się pogrzeby w Auschwitz-Birkenau? Jaki los spotkał dzieci-sieroty, które w niemieckiej fabryce śmierci straciły rodziców?Na te pytania odpowiem w dzisiejszym odcinku.

We discuss her recent book Hitler's Twilight of the God's: Music and the Orchestration of War and Genocide in Europe, how music and sound contributed to genocide and Nazi identity formation, how the Nazis used music to embed their mythology and ideology into everyday people's lives, the types of music and composers that the Nazi command structure favored or regulated, the psychology of genocide from the victim and perpetrator perspective and how music may have figured into that, some misconceptions and common misunderstandings about music during the Holocaust, the soundscape of horror inside a concentration camp, some of Alexandra's thoughts on holocaust denialism and the role of museums in preserving history, and much more.  Dr. Alexandra Birch is a professional violinist and historian who works comparatively on the Nazi Holocaust and Soviet mass atrocity, including the Gulag through the lens of music and sound. She holds a PhD in History from the University of California Santa Barbara, and a BM, MM, and DMA from Arizona State University in violin performance. Previously, she was a fellow at the US Holocaust Memorial Museum, the Wilson Center, and the Vienna Wiesenthal Institute, where she released CDs of recovered music and finished her first book Hitler's Twilight of the Gods: Music and the Orchestration of War and Genocide in Europe. Her current project “Sonic Shatterzones, The Intertwined Spaces, Sound and Music of Nazi and Soviet Atrocity,” investigates eight case studies of the Holocaust in the USSR and Gulag, including indigenous interactions with Solovki, new recordings of Weinberg's compositions from his time in Tashkent, sound recordings of the Gulag in Kazakhstan and of Auschwitz-Birkenau, and post-Soviet world premiere compositions, creating a humanizing look at incomprehensible violence. -Consider Supporting the Podcast!- Leave a rating or review on apple podcasts or spotify!

Explaining History (explaininghistory) (explaininghistory)

The economic realities of a failing war in the east accelerated the timetable for genocide at the highest levels of the Third Reich, but in July 1942 Heinrich Himmler also intended Auschwitz Birkenau to be a site for extracting slave labour from prisoners. He intended this because of the impeding economic and production crises that would engulf the Third Reich as it faced an alliance of America, the USSR and the British Empire. This podcast episode explores the intentions of the SS leader and of Hitler and how they were translated into brutal reality in the summer of 1942. *****STOP PRESS*****I only ever talk about history on this podcast but I also have another life, yes, that of aspirant fantasy author and if that's your thing you can get a copy of my debut novel The Blood of Tharta, right here:Help the podcast to continue bringing you history each weekIf you enjoy the Explaining History podcast and its many years of content and would like to help the show continue, please consider supporting it in the following ways:If you want to go ad-free, you can take out a membership hereOrYou can support the podcast via Patreon hereOr you can just say some nice things about it here Hosted on Acast.

How a town in Poland – once in Germany - is discovering its troubling past.Eighty years ago Soviet troops liberated Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi extermination camp. Over 1.1 million people, mainly Jews, were murdered there. However, there is an aspect of those terrible days which is less well known and which 80 years later is still being uncovered and still resonating: the death marches.As Soviet troops approached, in January 1945, SS soldiers at Auschwitz-Birkenau forced some 60,000 prisoners to march west, in freezing temperatures. Weak with hunger and disease, those who fell behind were shot.This is the story of how eight decades on the search for the truth behind one of those death marches is being uncovered. For years the history of a death march passing through the once proud German community of Schönwald was hidden.It is also the story of how descendants of the original inhabitants of Schönwald are having to confront the role some of their relatives may have played in the Nazi project, and how today's Polish inhabitants of the town, which is now called Bojków, are grappling with what happened on their streets. Amie Liebowitz's own great-grandmother was murdered Auschwitz-Birkenau, while her great-aunt was rescued by the Soviet forces. She speaks to those on both sides – German and Polish – who are uncovering this history.
