Trade paperback. Condition: Good. 410, [2] pages. Footnotes. Maps. Cover has some wear and soiling. Some edge soiling. This was previously published under the title The Warsaw Diary of Chaim A. Kaplan. Chaim Aron was born in Gorodishche, Belorussia. He received a talmudical education at the yeshivah of Mir and later studied at the Government Pedagogical Institute in Vilna. In 1902 he settled in Warsaw, where he founded a pioneering elementary Hebrew school, of which he was principal for 40 years. The diarist has an eye for detail as well for major trends. He is concerned with politics as well as with philosophy. Since the diary was his constant companion, Kaplan poured into it a great deal of his intellectual life - his thoughts, his information, and all the conversations he had with his friends. He is not detached from the scene; indeed, he apparently sought out all possible first-hand information and his descriptions deal with the mood of the time, the hour of occurrence. Many seeming contradictions are really the hourly changes of those fantastic times, with the result that at times he condemns the leaders of the Jewish community and at times praises them. He had no use for Adam Czerniakow, the president of the Judenrat whom he accused of usurping power at a time when the Warsaw Jewish community was powerless to elect a leader. Yet when Czerniakow committed suicide because he could no longer bring himself to deliver Jews to the Nazis, Kaplan wrote a noble eulogy of him, commenting: His end proves that he worked and strove for the good of his people, though not everything done in his name was praiseworthy. Derived from a Kirkus review: The Warsaw Diary of Chaim A. Kaplan, as edited here, covers the period from Germany's invasion of Poland on Sept. 1, 1939, to August 4, 1942. Then Kaplan, destitute and with few hopes left, awaited his turn to be "expelled," worried mainly now about the survival of the little stack of notebooks in which, in "clear and beautiful" Hebrew script "with no erasures," he had recorded the Jewish martyrdom. Kaplan, a distinguished teacher and Hebraicist, was born in White Russia, and one of the special virtues of his testimony is to be found in the fact that, although he had lived in Warsaw for 40 years, he identified neither with Poland nor with Polish Jewry. Thus, though his own fate is bound up with the tragedy all around him, he seems able to observe it with a degree of objectivity which makes his picture all the sharper and stronger. Dr. Katsh, who translated as well as edited the Diary, has done an excellent job of capturing the terrible spirit of the time and place in clear, tense, quiet prose. One could wish, however, that his account of the preservation and discovery of Kaplan's notebooks was more documented. Revised Edition, First Collier Books Edition. Maps by Morgan (illustrator).…

Couverture souple. Condition: Comme neuf. Edition originale. Paris 2009. 1 Volume/1. -- Comme Neuf -- Broché collé. Format 23 x 15,2 cm ( 682 gr ) . --------- 476 pages avec 1 photo de Chaïm Kaplan et une carte du Ghetto de Varsovie. ********************** 4ème de Couverture : "" De tous les témoignages qu'a suscités le drame du ghetto de Varsovie, Chronique d'une agonie est sans doute le plus bouleversant. Chaim A Kaplan prend chaque jour le risque de relater les événements dans son Journal. " Registre des larmes et du sang ", il devient une véritable " mission historique " et un témoignage que Kaplan souhaite transmettre aux générations futures. Chaim A Kaplan écrit jusqu'à la veille de son arrestation (4 août 1942). Grâce à son courage et à sa persévérance, nous connaissons mieux ce que fut la survie dans le ghetto de Varsovie, cet îlot de quelques kilomètres carrés. Les cahiers d'écolier sur lesquels Kaplan reporte les expériences quotidiennes ont été sortis à temps, juste avant la destruction complète du ghetto. Découverts par Abraham I Katsh, ils ont été publiés une vingtaine d'années plus tard. Une partie du Journal de Kaplan qui semblait définitivement perdue (3 avril 1941 -3 mai 1942) a été récemment mise au jour. Cette nouvelle édition offre au lecteur le récit des derniers mois de l'enfermement, une période marquée par un étranglement aggravé et une intensification de la violence dans un ghetto dont la population est plus nombreuse que celle des communautés juives de France et de Belgique réunies. Le ghetto de Varsovie condense toutes les phases de la catastrophe juive du xxe siècle. C'est aussi ce qui fait le prix de ce document qui, souvent cité par les historiens, demeurait pourtant depuis longtemps inaccessible au lecteur français."" ************************ ref Ya75417.…
