What is German-Jewish Refugees in England : The Ambiguities of Assimilation about?
A discussion on German-Jewish identity, based on interviews with German and Austrian Jewish refugees who emigrated to England in the 1930s. Ch. 1 (pp. 21-46) discusses the emancipation period and mentions the problem of antisemitism and its place in German culture. Ch. 3 (pp. 47-74) describes the Nazi period. Personal encounters with antisemitism show that, for many, the 1920s were worse than the 1930s, and Austria worse than Germany. For antisemitism in Britain, see the index. (From the Bibliography of the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism)
