George Wronkow worked as a journalist with the Mosse publishing house in Berlin in the 1920s and 30s; in the Spring of 1933 he had to leave Germany and fled first to Denmark and then to France, before emigrating to the USA in 1941. In his autobiography he presents a poignant account not only of his own life but of contemporary political developments from the Second Empire to the Nazi regime. He paints an impressive picture of his life in exile in Paris, where among other things he worked for the Pariser Tageblatt and as a radio journalist.
The Jewish author and journalist Moritz Goldstein (1880 1977) lived in Berlin until he emigrated in 1933. This is the first time that a systematic, annotated anthology of Goldstein s articles and court reports has been published. It provides a deep insight into both turbulent day-to-day life in Berlin during the Weimar Republic and significant social history debates from the viewpoint of a German Jew."
In her well-documented study, Irmtraud Ubbens focuses on the life and work of Moritz Goldstein, a writer and journalist, whose emigration from National-Socialist Germany took him first to Italy and England and, finally, to the USA. Based on her differentiated sources and using Goldstein's correspondence as a backdrop, she provides a vivid account of the A(c)migrA(c) writer's inner conflict, caused by the gradual loss of his mother tongue, his most important tool. The Appendix presents texts written by Goldstein after 1933.
