Description
The diary of Dorian (1893-1956), a Jewish physician and writer, documents the period between December 1937 (the period of the first antisemitic government, led by Goga and Cuza) and August 1944 (when Romania switched sides in World War II). The diary echoes the reactions of Jews and non-Jews (including anti-Jewish stereotypes) to the persecution of Jews in Romania. Refers also to the antisemitic legislation, the pogrom in Bucharest in January 1941, the deportations to Transnistria, and forced labor. Dorian survived the war in Bucharest.,(From the Bibliography of the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism).
