Summary[edit]
DescriptionLatvian SSR Yiddish Theater (23203809700).jpg |
English: After the Soviet Army occupied the Republic of Latvia it renamed the territory the Latvian Soviet Socialist Republic (Latvian SSR) – it was a region that saw heavy fighting throughout the Second World War as control of the region was traded between the Soviets and the Nazis. As new Soviet Republics were established it was common to see a variety of state-sponsored cultural organizations developing, though these organizations often corresponded to particular religious or ethnic groups. In the Soviet republic Jews were considered a nationality, and Yiddish was treated as their national language. Yiddish Theater played a prominent and important role in the cultural lives of Jews in Eastern (and Western) Europe, thus making it little surprise that the Latvian SSR would sanction a Yiddish Theater. When the Nazis invaded Latvia in July of 1941 they set about destroying the Jewish population, including its cultural organizations such as the Yiddish Theater from whence this book stamp comes. This book stamp is from a book looted by the Nazis and sorted by Colonel Seymour Pomrenze, one of “the Monuments Men,” at the Offenbach Archival Depot. |
