In parentheses
In his remarkably interesting article, Oleg Khlevniuk leaves “in parentheses those wartime summary executions, which were a special case of emergency military measures.” Other historians, who examine the topic of wartime repression, also do not to consider the number of victims of extrajudicial executions. In this article, I will attempt, firstly, to assess the prevalence of this phenomenon and its dynamics during the war, and secondly, to determ…
Jews in the Battle for Crimea, 1941–1944
On July 4, 1942, the Soviet people heard the sad news that, after 250 days of battle, Sevastopol, “the city of Russian glory,” had fallen. Twenty-two months later, Sevastopol was liberated by the 51st Army of the 4th Ukrainian Front. The army’s commander was Lieutenant General Iakov Kreizer, Hero of the Soviet Union and a member of the Jewish Anti-Fascist Committee. Thousands of Jews, soldiers of the Red Army, took part in the battle for Crimea i…

En juillet 1941, une centaine d’écrivains ont rejoint la milice populaire de Moscou. Cet article est dédié à l’histoire de la création et de la disparition de la « compagnie des écrivains » de la 8e division de la milice populaire. Cette histoire constitue une page très révélatrice de l’histoire sociale de la littérature soviétique. L’auteur tente de répondre à diverses questions : pourquoi précisément ces écrivains avaient-ils été « délégués » p…
From the Great Terror to the Terror in 1941
The article focuses on the repressions against Minsk Yiddish writers in 1936-41 and analyzes them in context of, first, the status of Yiddish in Soviet Belorussia and, second, the general policy of purges under the Stalinist regime. The majority of the arrests and executions took place during the final months of 1937. However, also in 1941, on the eve of the Soviet-German phase of World War II, several Yiddish authors had been detained by the sec…
Mark Edele, Sheila Fitzpatrick, and Atina Grossmann, editors. Shelter from the Holocaust
In September 1939, at the moment of the USSR’s annexation of Eastern Poland, about 1.3 million Jews lived in the region. According to various estimates, 230,000 to 500,000 Jewish refugees from the Nazi-occupied part of Poland joined them. Subsequently, some of them returned. As a result, between 1.4 and 1.6 million Jews found themselves in the former Eastern Kresy, now part of Soviet Ukraine and Belarus. The vast majority died during the Holocaus…

Muzhchiny i zhenshchiny v Krasnoi Armii, 1941-1945
The Jews and revolution
Contemporaries and historians of the Russian revolutions have often made a great deal of the Jewish role in the events of 1917. In late 1917, for instance, it was commonplace to assert that the Bolsheviks were simply part of a Jewish conspiracy. This paper takes a look at the various Russian perspectives on the revolution and its Jewish aspects, focusing in particular on the views of leading intellectuals, writers and politicians, such as S.M. Du…
