Humanities & Social SciencesOctober 2020“And the Bulgarian Jews were saved…”
by Nadège Ragaru
Bulgaria was an exception; a state allied with the Reich that refused to deport its Jewish community. This image of Bulgaria during WWII has persisted until the present day, overlooking the fact that in the Yugoslavian and Greek territories occupied by this country between 1941 and 1945, almost all the Jews were rounded up, sent to Poland, and exterminated. Deeply original in its approach and in its style, this historical investigation is an exemplary reflection on the silences of the past.
