YIVO Stresses Fact of Jewish
Resistance During Holocaust
NEW YORK (JTA) — Two
prominent Holocaust histor-
ians set the study of World
War II Jewish resistance ef-
forts in perspective at the
47th annual conference of the
YIVO Institute for Jewish Re-
search this week 'at the Hotel
Biltmore.
The theme of the week-
long conference is "Two Cri-
ses in Modern Jewish His-
tory: The Warsaw Ghetto Up-
rising (1943) and The Rise of
the State of Israel (1948)."
Dr. Isaiah Trunk, YIVO
archivist and co-winner of the
1972 National Book Award
for history, "Judenrat: Jew-
ish Councils of Eastern Eur-
ope Under Nazi Occupation,"
showed how the Warsaw
Ghetto Uprising — although
doomed to failure—was not
carried out by "confused, des-
perate victims" but by fight-
ers who believed they and
their fellow Jews might be
saved.
Dr. Trunk cited German
military logbooks of the time
that the Nazis were quite sha-
ken by the rebellion and saw
fit to court-martial their own
officers for allowing it to take
place. Soon after the Nazis
liquidated other ghettos for
fear of similar outbursts.
Gerd Korman, professor of
history at Cornell University
and author of "Hunter and
Hunted," a Holocaust study,
showed how various biases
during the war period ob-
structed understanding of
Jewish resistance and that
only now are scholars in a
position to throw light on the
subject.
As an example, he recalled
newspaper coverage of the
Warsaw Ghetto Uprising,
which reported the events un-
der religious news next to
the Pope's Easter prepara-
tions. This classification, he
said, hindered viewing Jews
as legitimate resistance fight-
ers.
