註釋
This book is about a major figure of the twentieth century - Leo Baeck, as well as about a major topic - the Holocaust. While not well known outside of Germany before World War II, Baeck became famous after the war because of his faith, service to others, and endurance while a prisoner in the «model» concentration camp, Theresienstadt. The translators, David Dowdey and Robert Wolfgang Rhée, are presenting to the American public a play originally written in German by Erwin Sylvanus. The English version was adapted for performance in 1988 to commemorate the fiftieth anniversary of
Kristallnacht
. Leo Baeck, the writer and thinker, will remain unknown for many; Leo Baeck, the compassionate survivor of Nazi atrocities, will not remain unknown for readers of this text.
