Its first part sheds light on his task of authoring the chapters ‘The failure of the many’ and ‘The proof of the few’, and deals primarily with the suggested amendments to the submitted manuscripts. From 1960 on a second part centres on internal discrepancies between F. L. Carsten and The Wiener Library caused by the publication’s delay and different views on credits for authorship. For the Library several letters are authored and signed by Johann Wolfgang Brügel. Furthermore, a draft by a solicitor for a letter to Carsten as well as several internal memos are contained.]]></p>

Due to ongoing problems the was cancelled eventually in May 1963.

Prof. Dr. Francis Ludwig Carsten (1911-1998) was a British historian of Jewish-German origin. In the late 1950s he was employed by The Wiener Library as freelance author for writing and editing works on the planned publication.]]></p>

In postwar Germany he was elected mayor of West Berlin in 1957, served as leader of the SPD from 1964-87 and was appointed foreign minister in1966. His chancellorship is then primarily known for his , that rather focused on reconciliation with countries in Eastern Europe than confrontation. In 1971, Brandt was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

(1947-1952) and includes background information on the library’s confiscation by the Nazis, its rediscovery on Czechoslovakian soil after the Second World War, and individuals and body’s involved in the process of negotiating its future ownership. Besides, a meeting of former members in London on occasion of the 60th anniversary of the C.V. is arranged.

Triggered by a research enquiry on anti-Nazi resistance in Berlin from 1933-45, a second major subject concerns the idea of compiling and writing the C.V.’s history (1959-1961). By containing numerous names, the correspondence sheds light on the postwar network of former C.V. employees, living in Brasil, Great Britain, Israel, the United States and potentially other countries.]]></p>

It centres on various Library related issues including: a restitution related enquiry on the salary of C.C. Aronsfeld at the JCIO (1954); a trip of Alfred Wiener to Belgium and The Netherlands to detect or compile eyewitness accounts for the Library’s eyewitness testimony project (1955); or a German language paper by Cohen on the history of the JCIO (1959).

Particular reference is made to archival material compiled by the Dutch Jewish Refugee Committee in the 1930s, and held by The Wiener Library. Its storage, cataloguing, and use for historical research as well as source material for restitution claims is a subject of interest for nearly a decade (1953-1961). Contained three copies of a detailed export report by Cohen on the custodial history, the content, and the arrangement of this very archive as well as a brief report by E. Schaefer from the United Restitution Organisation in London on its legal value for restitution claims (both July 1959).

The correspondence further reflects current political, social and cultural affairs related to Jewry, as they are discussed by the correspondents. This includes among others antisemitic incidents in West Germany (1959/1960) and the Netherlands (1962) as well as the controversial publications by German playwright R. Hochhuth and by H. Arendt (both 1963).

Aside letters and export reports the papers contain a draft for a newsletter article, some minor press cuttings, an obituary card, and three undated résumés of Cohen (in English and German).]]></p>

          <p><![CDATA[Prof. Dr. David Cohen (1883-1967) was a Jewish-Dutch historian and prominent Zionist leader. He was approached by Alfred Wiener in 1933 for assistance to establish the Jewish Central Information Office (JCIO) in Amsterdam and Cohen became its president. Since 1941 he was co-chairman of the Dutch Jewish Council before being deported to Theresienstadt two years later. Due to the Council’s controversial activities Cohen became a greatly controversial figure in postwar Netherlands as well as a major theme in Dutch historiography.

Only its minor part is with Demuth himself concerning his contribution to the Library’s eyewitness testimony project as well as arrangements of events and potential participants. Instigated by Alfred Wiener the correspondence’s main part, however, involves numerous other correspondents, and centres on arrangements for Demuth’s 80th Birthday in January 1956.

Beside handwritten and typewritten letters the bundle of papers includes lists of contributors to a present for Demuth’s birthday, two postcards, and a memo of a conversation about financial support for The Wiener Library by West German authorities (1957).]]></p>

Beside letters the correspondence contains a memo of Alfred Wiener’s meeting with R.

          <p><![CDATA[Illustrating the long-term and close association between Pechel and Alfred Wiener, the correspondence centres on the exchange of materials as well as the discussion of current political and cultural affairs. The latter refers specifically to the fight of Antisemitism and other forms of Nazi sympathy in West Germany.

Light is thrown on Pechel’s preofessional activities like public talks or appearances in radio shows, but also on more personal matters such as visits of Wiener at his home or his move to Switzerland (1959). Particular reference is made to a scheduled public talk by Pechel in London (1954). Arranged by The Wiener Library and cancelled eventually, numerous invitations had been sent out to German emigrants, British politicians and members of the Jewish community. The related correspondence documents the network associated with the Library as well as partially existing anti-German concerns on the British side in the early post-war years. A similar network, covering Jewish and gentile German emigrants in Britain, was also involved in arrangements for Pechel’s 75th Birthday (1957).

Several other letters with journalist and later university professor Harry Pross concern an article for the Library’s Bulletin (1956/1957) as well as another one planned by him (1958). The correspondence contains brief memos, address lists, advertisement leaflets, a list of contributors to Pechel’s 75 Birthday (1957), a transcript of a radio speech of Pechel (1959), and not dated drafts of letters.]]></p>

Dr. Rudolf Pechel (1882-1961) became the journal’s editor after the First World War. As Nazi opponent he had been imprisoned in the concentration camps Sachsenhausen and Ravensbrück for several years. In 1946 he reestablished the periodical in Stuttgart.
