Yad Vashem Studies Volume 33 features two special sections – on the Warsaw Ghetto and on postwar issues of memory and attitudes to the subject – in addition to varied new research and review articles.

The Warsaw Ghetto section includes newly discovered parts of Avraham Lewin’s 1942 diary (Havi Ben-Sasson and Leah Preis); the written observations of the wife of a member of the first Judenrat (Esther Farbstein); and new research on the role of the ZZW in the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising (Moshe Arens).

The Postwar section includes new research on the attitudes of the Polish Catholic Church to Jews in the immediate postwar years (Natalia Aleksiun); a qualitative study of the memories of hidden child survivors (Sharon Kangisser-Cohen); and an analysis of the beginnings of scholarly Holocaust research in Israel (Boaz Cohen).

In addition, this volume’s broad scope addresses the Holocaust in two East European towns (Yehuda Bauer); the deportations from Italy (Liliana Picciotto); Jewish rescue activities in Switzerland (Haim Shalem); and new approaches to reading diaries and memoirs (Amos Goldberg). Review articles on important new books round out this rich volume.
