Holocaust Testimonies in the Digital Era – EHRI Online Edition
Sedlická, Magdalena; Schellenbacher, Wolfgang
2020 - English
A key goal of the EHRI online editions platform is to develop annotated online editions of documents as a new way of presenting digital archival content. The editions are empowered by new EHRI tools for digital editing and use and improve upon the EHRI vocabularies and descriptions to generate contextual information displayed to users. Compared to analogue editions, the freely accessible online editions enable new research approaches and a different reading of the documents. Through metadata-tagging and geo-referencing, the editions do not exclusively follow thematic or chronological patterns. They are searchable and filtered for specific thematic or spatial interests at any time and are contextualised through interactive maps. EHRI platform hopes to support and possibly host third party projects.\n

As the strength of the Nazi regime grew, so the political and economic penetration of Germany into South-Eastern Europe increased. The occupation of the Rhineland demilitarized zone by German troops in March 1936 and the weak reaction of the Western powers had a significant effect upon the subsequent development of Little Entente relations.
