Gideon Greif - Felkelés Auschwitzban
3 130 Ft
Product description
On October 7, 1944, an uprising broke out in the extermination camp and members of the Sonderkommando took part in it.
This display of hopeless heroism has never been elaborated before. Professor Gideon Greif (We cried without tears), a researcher of the Sonderkommando in Auschwitz, fills this gap.
Since the creation of the Auschwitz camp, which was originally a prison camp rather than an extermination camp, the prisoners there have made quite a few successful escapes. Auschwitz II, i.e. Birkenau, on the other hand, had only one goal: the extermination of the Jews as quickly and efficiently as possible. No one has ever been able to escape from here, although many have tried.
Testimonies of participants and witnesses and various records, including German ones, shed light on how the prisoners kept in the two separate camps interacted, how the uprising was discussed and postponed several times, mainly under the influence of the prisoners of Auschwitz I, and what role the young people working in the Union Factory played. women. We will find out who took part in the uprising, how the Germans killed them, and what the consequences of the action were.
One thing will never be revealed, and we can hardly imagine, no matter how much we read Gideon Greif's books or watch Saul's Son, the Oscar-winning film by László Jeles: where the prisoners, who were chased to death, mentally broken, and in a hopeless situation, got their courage to organize, rebel and fight.
