Primerjava življenja Slovencev v koncentracijskih taboriščih Mauthausen in Rab

Salobir, Tjaša (author), Verginella, Marta (mentor)

Koncentracijsko taborišče Mauthausen so nacisti s pomočjo suženjske delovne sile taborišča Dachau postavili v letu 1938 in tja je vse do evakuacije taborišča v letu 1945 po naporni poti prispelo približno 4153 Slovencev. Te so nemške okupacijske sile aretirale zaradi privrženosti komunizmu, članstva v KPS, nudenja pomoči partizanom ali vključenosti v uporniške akcije. Koncentracijsko taborišče Rab so Italijani odprli v letu 1942, obstajalo je le dobro leto, v tem času pa je bilo na otok poslanih 5087 Slovencev. V magistrskem delu se bom posvetila razlikam in podobnostim vsakdanjega življenja Slovencev, ki so bili proti svoji volji ločeni od svojih družin in odpeljani iz domovine v koncentracijsko taboriče Mauthausen ali Rab. Na podlagi pričevanj in spominov preživelih internirancev se bom osredotočila na grozote, ki so jih tamkaj doživeli, vse od deportacije, vstopnega postopka in življenjskih razmer, ki so jim bili izpostavljeni vsak dan do svoje osvoboditve ter vrnitve nazaj v Slovenijo.

Abstract

The nazis built the Mauthausen concentration camp in 1938 with the help of male slave labour, transported from the Dachau camp. By the evacuation of the camp in 1945, approximately 4153 Slovenes were brought there due to their devotion to communism, membership in the League of Communists of Slovenia, providing aid to the partisans or involvement in various insurgent actions. In 1942, the Italians opened the Arbe concentration camp, which existed little over a year. During this time, approximately 5.087 Slovenes were sent to the island. In my master thesis, I will describe the differences and similarities of everyday life of Slovene people, who were deported from their homeland, separated from their families against their will and taken to Mauthausen or Arbe. Based on the testimonies and memories of the survivals, I will focus on the horrors that they experienced during their deportation, on entering the camp and every day of their internment until the liberation and return back to Slovenia.
