"Die Juden"

Six posthumously published essays by the liberal German-Jewish writer and long-time editor of the "Berliner Tageblatt" who was arrested in France and killed by the Nazis in 1943. The essays were written in Nice (where Wolff lived since 1933) in 1942-43. They deal with the Jewish religion, Zionism, antisemitism, and events of World War II. The latter two topics are dealt with in "Jüdische Flüchtlinge im Zweiten Weltkrieg" (pp. 19-52); "Zu den Grundlagen und Formen des Judenhasses und zum Antisemitismus" [deals with European antisemitism in the 19th-20th centuries] (97-126); "Erlebnisse und Erfahrungen jüdischer Emigranten in Frankreich" (pp. 216-285).
