Books by Susanne Kord

Elsa Bernstein (1866 1949), though of Jewish descent, was a Christian and a member of Germany's educated elite. During the Holocaust, she survived the Theresienstadt concentration camp through her classification as a prominent person a status conferred on her through the intercession of Richard Wagner's daughter-in-law, a friend of Hitler. Susanne Kord has published on eighteenth- and nineteenth-century women playwrights in Germany. She has published poetry in several anthologies and journals, and translated German dramas into English.
