Nur jüdische Vornamen für Juden
Only Jewish names for Jews
- 1938-Aug-24
Newspaper clipping from the Frankfurter Zeitung, a German-language newspaper published from 1856 to 1943. In Nazi Germany, it was considered the only mass publication not completely controlled by the Propagandaministerium under Joseph Goebbels.
The article describes the laws in Germany that state Jewish Germans and stateless Jews are only allowed to use Hebrew first names and family names issued by the Reich Minister of the Interior. If they do not choose a new Hebrew name, men will be assigned the name Israel and women the name Sarah. If they do not take a new name they will face imprisonment.
The article then lists acceptable names that men and women can take. On the right, the name Salomon is underlined. Georg Bredig (1868-1944) chose the new name Salomon Julius Georg Bredig under this new law.
