    Content: From the Publisher: An in-depth look at how The New York Times failed in its coverage of the fate of European Jews from 1939-1945. It examines how the decisions that were made at The Times ultimately resulted in the minimizing and misunderstanding of modern history's worst genocide. Laurel Leff, a veteran journalist and professor of journalism, recounts how personal relationships at the newspaper, the assimilationist tendencies of The Times' Jewish owner, and the ethos of mid-century America, all led The Times to consistently downplay news of the Holocaust. It recalls how news of Hitler's 'final solution' was hidden from readers and-because of the newspaper's influence on other media-from America at large. Buried by The Times is required reading for anyone interested in America's response to the Holocaust and for anyone curious about how journalists determine what is newsworthy.

    Series Statement: Jewish culture and contexts
    Content: The Art of Being Jewish in Modern Times is the first work to analyze modern Jewry's engagement with the arts as a whole, including music, theater, dance, film, museums, architecture, painting, sculpture, and more. Taken together, the essays in this volume entertain the hypothesis that the "modern Jewish experience" has in some sense been a pointedly artistic one. In exploring the role of artistic expression in Jewish self-definition and various styles of contemporary Jewishness, this book works with a broad conception of what counts as art and attends to the organized contexts in which art of all kinds is made. What roles have commerce and politics played in shaping Jewish artistic agendas? Who determines the Jewishness of art and for what purposes? What role has aesthetics played in reshaping religious traditions and rituals? The essays range geographically from the United States and Europe to Israel and take up such subjects as Yiddish theater and film; visual artists such as Ben Shahn, R.B. Kitaj, Ben Katchor, Max Liebermann, and Mark Antokol'skii; music forms such as Tin Pan Alley, Israeli popular music, liturgical composition; Jewish architectural presence at the New York World's Fair and Tel-Aviv as the first "Hebrew" city; and the way the Holocaust figures in film, the framing of Nazi art loot, and the fate of a Jewish dance critic in Nazi Germany. This richly illustrated volume illuminates how the arts have helped Jews confront the challenges of modernity. There truly is an art to being Jewish in the modern world - or, alternatively, an art of being modern in the Jewish world - and this collection fully captures its range, diversity, and historical significance.

    Content: Der Film von Annie Sundberg und Rickie Stern, der im Januar 2007 auf dem Sundance Film Festival Weltpremiere feierte, besticht durch seine ungeschminkte Darstellung des Konflikts in Darfur. Als militärischer Beobachter mit der Afrikanischen Union (AU) in der Region stationiert, wurde Protagonist Brian Steidle unfreiwilliger Zeuge des Mordens und der Vertreibung. Aus der Perspektive des US-Amerikaners, dessen erschütternde Bilder auch vom 15. bis zum 22. März 2007 als Teil der Foto-Projektion "Vor den Augen der Welt" auf der Museumsfassade zu sehen sind, prangert "The Devil Came on Horseback" das mangelnde Interesse der Medien und der Staatengemeinschaft für einen der brutalsten kriegerischen Konflikte der Gegenwart an. Als militärischer Beobachter war Brian Steidle mehrere Monate lang in Darfur und bekam einzigartige Einblicke in die dortigen Geschehnisse. Da es für Journalisten inzwischen nahezu unmöglich ist, legal in die Region zu reisen, um über die Gräueltaten zu berichten, stellt "The Devil Came on Horseback" ein wichtiges Zeugnis zur Lage in Darfur dar. Nur mit seinem Notizblock und seiner Kamera bewaffnet, bekam der ehemalige US-Marineoffizier Brian Steidle den Krieg auch am eigenen Leib spüren: Mitunter wurde er beschossen, als Geisel genommen und musste untätig zusehen, wie Kinder und Jugendliche getötet wurden. Von seinen Erlebnissen tief erschüttert, kehrte er im Frühjahr 2005 in die USA zurück, wo ihn das völlige Desinteresse für das Schicksal der Menschen in Darfur in Erstaunen versetzte. Seine kompromisslosen Bilder und Video-Aufnahmen weckten das Interesse der Filmemacher Anni Sundberg und Rickie Stern. Nach einem Treffen mit Brian Steidle war die Idee für den Dokumentarfilm geboren, der die Wandlung des jungen Offiziers auf Abenteuersuche in einen rastlosen Anwalt für die Menschen in Darfur begleitet. Durch seine Arbeit und die anderer Engagierter setzen sich allein in den USA bis heute über 180 Organisationen für die Menschen in Darfur ein. "The Devil Came on Horseback" behandelt aber nicht nur den blutigen Konflikt. Auch der Mut und der Lebenswille Einzelner kommen zur Geltung: Der Film zeichnet Gespräche mit Flüchtlingsfamilien aus Darfur sowie einem Überläufer der Janjaweed-Milizen auf. Ferner kommen Experten wie "New York Times"-Reporter Nicholas Kristof und John Prendergast von der International Crisis Group, Autorin Samantha Power, Literatur-Nobelpreisträger Elie Wiesel sowie Luis Ocampo, Chef-Ankläger des Internationalen Strafgerichtshofs, zu Wort. Gespräch mit dem Publizisten und Afrika-Kenner Hans Christian Buch. Die Regisseurin und Produzentin Annie Sundberg war nicht anwesend.

    Content: When Henry Roth published his debut novel Call It Sleep in 1934, it was greeted with considerable critical acclaim though, in those troubled times, lackluster sales. Only with its paperback publication thirty years later did this novel receive the recognition it deserve and still enjoys. Having sold-to-date millions of copies worldwide, "Call It Sleep" is the magnificent story of David Schearl, the "dangerously imaginative" child coming of age in the slums of New York.

    Uniform Title: Ha-asonot shel Nina
    Content: The events in "Nina's Tragedies," a flighty Israeli film that takes whimsical tangents into the absurd, spring from entries in a secret journal kept by a glum, bespectacled 14-year-old boy with a dirty mind (Aviv Elkabets), as the movie gyrates between comedy and pathos, it toys with magic realism that never bursts into full-flowered surrealist fantasy. The boy is besotted with his mother's beautiful, high-strung sister Nina (Ayelet July Zurer), who is unexpectedly widowed when her new husband is killed in a terrorist attack. Ms. Zurer, whose blend of beauty and spirited eccentricity suggests an Israeli answer to Diane Keaton, is the steadiest light illuminating a film that takes in the topsy-turvy world of contemporary Tel Aviv through an adolescent's distracted glances. - Stephen Holden, The New York Times

    Content: In "The New York Times Book Review" wird Segevs Buch als Standardwerk über die Vorgeschichte des israelischen Staates gehandelt. Das neue Buch des bekannten Historikers und Journalisten Tom Segev ist eine meisterhafte Untersuchung der turbulenten Zeit vor der Staatsgründung Israels und wurde mit dem National Jewish Book Award ausgezeichnet. Segev zeigt in seiner Lesung, wie in 30 Jahren britischer Herrschaft in Palästina die Wurzeln des israelisch-palästinensischen Konflikts gelegt wurden, wie aus grenzenlosen Möglichkeiten und tragischen Fehlentscheidungen die gewaltsame Konfrontation entstand. Eine Veranstaltung in Kooperation mit der Literaturhandlung Berlin.

    Content: Master of madness, wandering poet, dysfunctional genius Anthony Coleman in a magical evening of songs by acclaimed Yiddish composer Mordechai Gebirtig, whose haunting lyrics and melodies became some of the most beloved and popular songs of their time. He was not to survive the Holocaust. Recorded live at midnight in the oldest synagogue of Kracow, Poland, a few steps away from Gebirtig's birthplace, Anthony's masterful readings capture all the awe and mystery of this legendary giant of Jewish Culture. Drawing parallels to the work of Kafka, Bruno Schultz and other Jewish figures of the time this is music at times poignant, at times frightening.
