Deutsch-jüdische Publizistik. Wie Legenden die Gegenwart beinflussen

Between adaptation, "inner emigration" and flight: After the National Socialists came to power, many journalists were faced with existential decisions. While most Jewish journalists were forced to flee, others came to terms with the regime, made a career for themselves or offered journalistic resistance from exile.

Prof. Siegfried Weischenberg's new book Schuld und Geheimnis. Confessions of Legends of German-Jewish Journalism is dedicated to the well-known and lesser-known voices of this period. Whether Alfred Kerr or Hilde Spiel, Fritz Sänger or Elisabeth Noelle - very different behaviors, attitudes and narratives of what they experienced become visible.

Author Siegfried Weischenberg and Tübingen media scientist Prof. Dr. Martina Thiele take the lives and journalistic work of important German journalists of the 20th century as an opportunity to talk about anti-Semitism, gender relations, remembering and forgetting.
