Patriot und Paria : das Leben des Erwin Goldmann zwischen Judentum und Nationalsozialismus : eine Dokumentation

Chronicles Nazi measures to exclude "non-Aryans" from German society, and the conformity of both Churches. Traces the life of Goldmann (1891-1981), a full-blooded Jew, Protestant convert, and radical right-wing German nationalist. He was close to Naumann's Verband nationaldeutscher Juden. During the Nazi period, he lost his position as head of a public dental clinic in Stuttgart and, later, his license to practice. He was regional leader in the Paulus-Bund, an organization of nationalist non-Aryan Christians, until full Jews were expelled; then he worked in the Internal Mission with other non-Aryans. In 1940-43 he was an informer for the SD and the Gestapo. His marriage to a Christian saved him from deportation, but in November 1944 he was drafted for labor in a camp for "Mischlinge" in Wolfenbüttel, of which he was named headman. The postwar denazification tribunal imposed on him a severe sentence, but by 1950 he returned to normal life. Pp. 71-180 contain documents mainly from the proceedings of the denazification tribunal, especially Goldmann's own depositions. Includes bibliographical references. 180 pages ; 21 cm.
