"German Children's and Youth Literature in Exile 1933-1950,"
contains biographies of 101 authors and illustrators of children's
and youth literature as well as bibliographies of the books written
and illustrated by them that were published in exile between 1933
and 1950. Included are authors who were born before 1918 in Germany
or in areas of the former Austro-Hungarian Empire, who were forced
to flee and live through the Nazi dictatorship in exile. Among them
were prominent authors such as Bertolt Brecht, authors of
"classics" in children's and youth literature like Kurt Held ("Die
rote Zora und ihre Bande"; 1941), Irmgard Keun ("Nach Mitternacht";
1937) oder Felix Salten ("Bambi"; 1923), and also authors less
known today. Each bibliography also includes the translations of
the author's works into languages from all over the world. Recorded
in the bibliographies are all forms and genres of children's
literature: narrative literature and poetry, fiction and
non-fiction. Every bibliographic entry contains a short overview of
the contents, a description of the graphic techniques used for the
illustrations, and if known, a commentary on the historical origins
of the book, as well as information on the place where the copy of
the book was examined. The handbook includes two indexes. The name
index lists the names of authors, illustrators, editors,
translators and designers, the private owners of the copies
examined, as well as the names of other authors in exile listed in
the biography. The title index lists all the books that are
described in the bibliographies.
