Summary / Abstract:
LTReikšminiai žodžiai: Lietuvos istorija; Žydai; Miestai; Bendruomenės; The Lithuanian history; Jews; Cities; Society.
ENThis English edition is dedicated to the memory of all the Jews of Yurburg and to our ancestors who were brutally murdered during the Shoah. The cause of their death remains as inconceivable today, as it ever was, for they died for no other reason but for being Jews. This volume may be the only work in the English language dealing with the vanished Jewish Community of Yurburg. The story inexorably reflects the horrible crimes of the Shoah never to be forgotten, if the darkest page of the Jewish history is not to be repeated ever again. [...]. [Extract, p. 11]
