Sprachbewahrung nach der Emigration - das Deutsch der 20er Jahre in Israel: Teil I Transkripte und Tondokumente
In 165 extracts from interviews conducted in Israel between 1989 and 1994, a total of 121 German-speaking Jews able to escape from Nazi Germany in the thirties are recorded here, communicating personal memories and views on various subjects. They originate from a variety of areas in Germany, Austria, the Czech Republic and Poland. Equally varied are their family and social background, the ways in which they found their way to Palestine/Israel and the different milieus they now live in. What they all have in common is the cultivated German of the educated upper middle-classes of the nineteen-twenties in which they memorably relate their experiences. The CD included contains 38 of these extracts, thus providing -- together with the book -- an unparalleled piece of linguistic and historical documentation.
