Author: Hannah Arendt

ISBN: 1101007168
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 337
Book Description
The controversial journalistic analysis of the mentality that fostered the Holocaust, from the author of The Origins of Totalitarianism Sparking a flurry of heated debate, Hannah Arendt’s authoritative and stunning report on the trial of German Nazi leader Adolf Eichmann first appeared as a series of articles in The New Yorker in 1963. This revised edition includes material that came to light after the trial, as well as Arendt’s postscript directly addressing the controversy that arose over her account. A major journalistic triumph by an intellectual of singular influence, Eichmann in Jerusalem is as shocking as it is informative—an unflinching look at one of the most unsettling (and unsettled) issues of the twentieth century.

The Eichmann Trial
Author: Deborah E. Lipstadt
Publisher: Schocken
ISBN: 0805242910
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
***NATIONAL JEWISH BOOK AWARD FINALIST (2012)*** Part of the Jewish Encounter series The capture of SS Lieutenant Colonel Adolf Eichmann by Israeli agents in Argentina in May of 1960 and his subsequent trial in Jerusalem by an Israeli court electrified the world. The public debate it sparked on where, how, and by whom Nazi war criminals should be brought to justice, and the international media coverage of the trial itself, was a watershed moment in how the civilized world in general and Holocaust survivors in particular found the means to deal with the legacy of genocide on a scale that had never been seen before. Award-winning historian Deborah E. Lipstadt gives us an overview of the trial and analyzes the dramatic effect that the survivors’ courtroom testimony—which was itself not without controversy—had on a world that had until then regularly commemorated the Holocaust but never fully understood what the millions who died and the hundreds of thousands who managed to survive had actually experienced. As the world continues to confront the ongoing reality of genocide and ponder the fate of those who survive it, this trial of the century, which has become a touchstone for judicial proceedings throughout the world, offers a legal, moral, and political framework for coming to terms with unfathomable evil. Lipstadt infuses a gripping narrative with historical perspective and contemporary urgency.

Eichmann Interrogated
Author: Adolf Eichmann
Publisher: Da Capo Press
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
As head of the Gestapo's "Jewish Evacuation Department," Lieutenant Colonel Adolf Eichmann (1906-1962) was the driving force in the impoverishment, deportation, and extermination of millions of Jews. In 1945 he escaped with a Vatican passport and fled to South America. In May 1960 the Israelis located and kidnapped Eichmann from Argentina, and brought him to trial in Israel, where he was convicted and hanged, his remains cremated and scattered. For nearly a year prior to his trial Eichmann was interrogated by Captain Avner W. Less, a German Jew whose father and numerous relatives perished in Nazi concentration camps. Eichmann Interrogated is a superbly edited condensation of their 275-hour exchange, representing ten percent of the 3,564-page total. Amid his lies, distortions, evasions, half-truths, and startling admissions, Eichmann fully acknowledges the reality of the Holocaust while attempting to minimize his central role in its execution. As his life from traveling salesman to mass murderer unfolds, Eichmann's defense becomes a chilling self-indictment and a warning of Evil's often unassuming visage.

The Eichmann Tapes
Author: Adolf Eichmann
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781910881095
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 330
Book Description
Adolf Eichmann was head of Gestapo Division IV-B4, the Third Reich's notorious Security Service, and he was responsible for implementing the "Final Solution" of the European Jews in the Greater German Reich. Though arrested at the end of the war by the U.S. army, Eichmann succeeded in escaping from U.S. custody in 1946 and lived unnoticed in Germany and Austria until 1950, when he travelled to Argentina. While living in Buenos Aires, Eichmann produced a series of tape recordings, and hand written notes, giving a very open and incriminating account of his role in the Final Solution, and Eichmann declares that this is indeed the only testimony that he wishes to be considered as genuine and not dictated under duress. In 1960 the Israeli Intelligence Service Mossad, succeeded in tracing Eichmann to Argentina. They captured him, and on May 21 he was flown to Israel, where he was tried by the Israeli Court in 1961, found guilty and hanged on May 31, 1962. After his courtroom testimony in Israel, in August 1961, Eichmann wrote an additional testimony that he called "False Gods". The English translation of "False Gods", is also published by Black House Publishing, and is a companion to this volume. This book provides an incriminating account of Eichmann's role in the wholesale murder of the Jews in Europe, and establishes the scope of the anti-Jewish measures undertaken in the Third Reich and the gradual development of these measures from emigration to concentration to large-scale murder. The reader of Eichmann's memoirs will thus obtain not only a vivid impression of the extensive police operations of the Third Reich but also a glimpse into the ideological and political motivations of these actions, motivations that were perhaps not fully shared by Eichmann himself.

The Case Against Adolf Eichmann
Author: Henry A. Zeiger
Publisher: Pickle Partners Publishing
ISBN: 1786254484
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 359
Book Description
Eichmann... THE MAN, THE CRIMES. This book is a documentary presentation of the case prosecuting attorneys could present against the greatly captured Nazi war criminal, Adolf Eichmann. Using affidavits, testimony from the Nuremberg trials, captured German documents, statements made by ranking Nazis, reports from concentration camp commandants, guards, Einsatz groups and survivors, Henry A. Zeiger tells the whole Eichmann story. There is a composite portrait of the man himself by the people who knew him intimately—Dieter Wisliceny, Eichmann’s subordinate in Slovakia...Kaltenbrunner, Head of the Gestapo...Höss, commandant of Auschwitz. We are told how Eichmann, alone among the top-level masterminds of the anti-Jewish conspiracy, managed to escape allied retribution and was finally captured. We learn how the hideous Nazi plan for the mass murder of the Jews evolved. We see the major part Eichmann played in the abortive Nazi attempt to barter the lives of thousands of Hungarian Jews for war supplies. What emerges from the thorough documentation and terse, perceptive commentary is the complete Eichmann story from its historical beginnings to the present moment. It is not only the story of the man who is the current symbol of Nazi barbarism...It is, as well, the story of inhumanity in our time.
