MARGIT SLACHTA'S ACTIVITIES IN SUPPORT OF SLOVAKIAN JEWRY 1942–1943*,{dagger}

MARIA SCHMIDT

Hunganan Academy of Sciences, Budapest Hungary

The unique actions by Margit Slachta on behalf of the persecuted Jews in Slovakia and eventually in her own country, Hungary, have received little scholarly attention. This article attempts to show how, based on her belief in Christian principles and morality, she chose to take an active and public stand to protest against the policy of racial discrimination and persecution. Especially noteworthy were her efforts to mobilize the leaders of the Christian world to take a stand and publicly protest the persecution of the Jews

*Presented at the ‘Remembering for the Future’ Conference, Oxford, 10–13 July 1988.

{dagger}This paper was written with the support of the MTA — Soros Foundation.
