Citace (dle ČSN ISO 690):
SPIES, Gerty. My years in Theresienstadt: how one woman survived the Holocaust. Překlad Jutta R. TRAGNITZ. New York: Prometheus, 1997. 214 s.
Gerty Spies was born in 1897 at Trier into a Jewish family whose ancestors had lived in Germany for centuries. Separated from her family by the Nazis, she was sent to the Czech camp known as Theresienstadt. It was a peculiar place: publicised as a retirement city, a Nazi propaganda showplace where Jews could sit out the war. But it was actually a way station for those destined for the Auschwitz death camp. Isolated from the outside world, surrounded by death, Spies retreated to her inner self to concentrate on human, cultural, and other values. Her powerful talent for writing, discovered at the camp; enabled her to transcend and triumph over mental and physical degradations; to keep her own integrity; to not let evil destroy her loving nature; and, finally, to not lose faith in humanity. By the end of the war, 33,000 people died in Theresienstadt from disease and malnutrition. Spies' work exhibits a tension between the expression of camp reality and an imagination of an idealised past. Sensitive and humorous, but never bitter, her stories of the struggle for survival are expressions of her own individual moral poise.
