Description
In the winter of 1946, pupils from Cecilienschule, a girls’ school in Saarbrücken, Germany, created a little Danke-Buch, a ‘thank you’ book with drawings, letters and poems for representatives of the Irish food aid, because this humanitarian deed saved numerous children’s lives.
In 2013, due to the initiative of today’s owner of the Danke-Buch, the rediscovery of this important cultural heritage began. In 2019, the book was included into a catalogue of outstanding drawings by children and adolescents from Europe, and the intention is to have the book nominated for the Memory of the World Register.
This volume shows the Danke-Buch and addresses aspects of the post-war years.
With contributions by
Tony O’Herlihy, Christine Reinhardt, Kunibert Bering, Jutta Ströter-Bender, Bernd Haunfelder, Birgit Kollet, Viviane Bierhenke, Juliane Kurz, Iris Kolhoff-Kahl, Sabine Weichel-Kickert, Neslian Pisginoglu
