In this disturbing and carefully researched book, the historian Miriam Gebhardt reveals for the first time the scale of this human tragedy, which continued long after the hostilities had ended. Discussion in recent years of the rape of German women committed at the end of the war has focused almost exclusively on the crimes committed by Soviet soldiers, but Gebhardt shows that this picture is misleading. Crimes were committed as much by the Western Allies American, French and British as by the members of the Red Army, and they occurred not only in Berlin but throughout Germany. Nor was the suffering limited to the immediate aftermath of the war. Gebhardt powerfully recounts how raped women continued to be the victims of doctors, who arbitrarily granted or refused abortions, welfare workers, who put pregnant women in homes, and wider society, which even today prefers to ignore these crimes. 546 $a Translated from the German. 610 27 $a Allied Forces $2 gnd 611 27 $a World War (1939-1945) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01180924 611 27 $a BMBF-Statusseminar $2 gnd 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Women $z Germany. 650 0 $a Rape $z Germany $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Rape victims $z Germany $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Soldiers $x History $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Women $x History $z Germany $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Single mothers $z Germany $x Social conditions $y 20th century. 650 7 $a Armed Forces $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00814586 650 7 $a Armed Forces $x Foreign service. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01351783 650 7 $a Rape $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01089970 650 7 $a Rape victims $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01090022 650 7 $a Single mothers $x Social conditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01119386 650 7 $a Soldiers $x Sexual behavior. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01125307 650 7 $a Women $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176568 650 7 $a Women $x Crimes against $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01176618 650 7 $a Weltkrieg. $g 1939-1945 $2 gnd 650 7 $a Kriegsende. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Soldat. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Frau. $2 gnd 650 7 $a Massenvergewaltigung $2 gnd 651 0 $a Soviet Union $x Armed Forces $z Germany (East) 651 0 $a United States $x History $x Foreign service $z Germany $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a France $x History $z Germany $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Germany $x History $y 1945-1955. 651 7 $a France $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204289 651 7 $a Germany $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210272 651 7 $a Germany (East) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210274 651 7 $a Soviet Union $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210281 651 7 $a United States $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 653 $a (fast)World War (1939-1945) 653 $a (fast)1900-1999 653 $a (fast)Armed Forces. 653 $a (fast)Armed Forces--Foreign service. 653 $a (fast)Rape. 653 $a (fast)Rape victims. 653 $a (fast)Single mothers--Social conditions. 653 $a (fast)Soldiers--Sexual behavior. 653 $a (fast)Women. 653 $a (fast)Women--Crimes against. 653 $a (fast)France. 653 $a (fast)Germany. 653 $a (fast)Germany (East) 653 $a (fast)Soviet Union. 653 $a (fast)United States. 653 $a (fast)History. 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Gebhardt, Miriam. $t Crimes unspoken. $d Cambridge, UK, Malden, MA : Polity Press, [2016] $z 9781509511228 $w (DLC) 2016022335 856 41 $3 Table of contents $u http://d-nb.info/1121532616/04 941 $a 4 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20240724073541.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240202025727.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20181010011104.0 952 $l GAAX314 $d 20170601010145.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9BE79D0C468F11E7B6F4D8AFDAD10320 994 $a Z0 $b HL6Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
