SUMMARY:Hybrid Exhibition talk: Kristallnacht in Vienna: The Radicalisation of Antisemitic Policy in the Nazi State
DESCRIPTION:In this talk\, Dr Toby Simpson will discuss the reasons behind the extreme brutality of Kristallnacht in Vienna. \nCompared to other locations in the Third Reich\, even in other cities where local antisemitism was rife\, the brutal nature and long-term impact of anti-Jewish violence in the Austrian capital is striking. \nThis talk will examine collections held at The Wiener Holocaust Library and consider what insights the study of this terrible historical event might offer people today. \nAbout the Speaker\nDr Toby Simpson is Director of The Wiener Holocaust Library\, the world’s oldest archival and library collection relating to the Holocaust and Nazi era. He has been in his current role since 2019. \nPreviously he led the project Testifying to the Truth: Eyewitnesses to the Holocaust which has catalogued\, digitised\, and translated over 1\,000 eyewitness accounts\, gathered by the Wiener Library between 1954 and 1961. \nDr Simpson joined the Wiener Library in 2011\, setting up a new programme of exhibitions\, tours\, and events. Between 2011 and 2016\, he curated or co-curated over a dozen exhibitions including Humanity After the Holocaust: The Jewish Relief Unit\, 1943-1950\, and Four Thousand Lives: The Kitchener Camp Rescue. \nReport of the Jewish Community of Vienna showing the use of the soup kitchen\, January – February 1939 \nEvent guidelines for those joining online:\n1.
