Die Biographie Rahel Varnhagens, begonnen um 1930 in Berlin, fertiggestellt 1938 im Pariser Exil, veröffentlicht erst zwanzig Jahre später, zuerst auf Englisch, dann auf Deutsch.Hannah Arendts Biographie der Rahel Varnhagen - ein großer Abgesang auf jüdische Assimilation in Deutschland. Begonnen wurde das Buch am Ende der Weimarer Republik, als die Zeichen längst auf Sturm standen, fertig geschrieben 1938 im Pariser Exil. Erst zwanzig Jahre später wurde das Buch veröffentlicht, zuerst in englischer Übersetzung, dann auf deutsch. Im Nachlass ihres Lehrers und Freunds Karl Jaspers ist eine erste Fassung der Biographie aus dem Jahr 1933 überliefert, die in dieser Ausgabe erstmals veröffentlicht wird. Im Rückblick schreibt Arendt, neben der jüdischen Frage habe sie an Rahel Varnhagen interessiert, was die Denkerin aus der Zeit um 1800 unter Schicksal verstand: »Es hat ein jeder ein großes Schicksal, der da weiß, dass er eines hat.« Sie bezeichnet Rahel Varnhagen als ihre beste Freundin, die leider schon seit hundert Jahren tot sei.

The catalogue to the new permanent exhibition at the Buchenwald Memorial.The Buchenwald concentration camp was located less than ten kilometres from the Weimar city centre. Operated by the SS from 1937 to 1945, it was one of the Nazi regime's most important instruments for the racist reconstruction of Germany and later of Europe. Every day, the inmates had the inscription in the camp gate - »JEDEM DAS SEINE« (»To Each His Own«) - before their eyes. This cynical reinterpretation of the expression's original meaning legitimized the ostracism and violence to which »strangers to the community« were subjected.The new permanent exhibition analyses what this meant for the more than 270,000 persons deported to Buchenwald. Drawing on the current state of research based on archival studies carried out worldwide, the accompanying catalogue also presents hitherto unknown historical documents and photos. Fundamental essays by such notable historians as Ulrich Herbert, Frank Bajohr or Johannes Tuchel and a contribution by the writer and former Buchenwald inmate Ivan Ivanji moreover offer concise discussions of the Nazi crimes committed in the concentration camps and place them in context.
