Die Geschichte der Juden in Deutschland
Description:... Elbogen's work, written in 1935 to strengthen German Jews in the face of Nazi persecution, was revised by Eleonore Sterling in order to adapt the text to a present-day audience and to incorporate a brief account of the development of the Third Reich and of the Holocaust, as well as new developments in historiography. Surveys medieval persecutions; the Reuchlin debate and Luther's antisemitism; hostility to Jewish economic successes in the 17th-18th centuries; the debate over emancipation, and the beginnings of political antisemitism; the Weimar Republic and Nazi anti-Jewish policy.
