Today, Theresienstadt is best<br>known for the Nazi propaganda of the International Red Cross visit, cultural life, and children. But these aspects explain little what defined the lives of its 140,000 inmates. The Last Ghetto offers both a modern history of this Central European ghetto and the first in-depth analytical history of a prison society during the Holocaust. Theresienstadt produced its own social hierarchies under which even small differences among prisoners decided their fate. During the three and a half years of the camp&amp;#39;s existence, prisoners created their own culture and habits, bonded, fell in love, and forged new families. Based on extensive archival research and witness testimonies, The Last Ghetto: An Everyday History of Theresienstadt, published by the Oxford University Press, casts light on how human society works in extremis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">To mark the Holocaust Memorial Day, Velehrad, in cooperation with the Czech Embassy<br>and the Institute for Polish-Jewish Studies, will host paperback release of Anna H\u00e1jkov\u00e1\u2019s<br>The Last Ghetto, on 27th January 2024 at 7pm.<br>The book will be available for purchase for \u00a318 (cash only).<br>Refreshments provided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Dr Anna H\u00e1jkov\u00e1 is Reader in modern European Continental History at the University of<br>Warwick, where she is the director of Centre for Global Jewish Studies.<br>Fran\u00e7ois Guesnet&nbsp;is Professor of Modern Jewish History at University College London.
