Dr. Mengele's Twins : the Story of Eva and Miriam Mozes

Echoes from Auschwitz

Eva Mozes Kor tenía sólo diez años cuando llegó a Auschwitz. Sus padres y dos hermanas mayores fueron llevados a las cámaras de gas, pero ella y su gemela Miriam fueron puestas al cuidado del hombre conocido como el Ángel de la Muerte, el sanguinario doctor Josef Mengele, quien realizaba crueles experimentos sobre todos los gemelos que encontraba, en su delirante afán por entender la genética y mantener pura a la raza aria. En estas páginas, Kor relata cómo lucho a diario por su supervivencia y la de su hermana en condiciones infrahumanas frente a una maldad difícil de comprender. 

La historia real de dos niñas frente al Ángel de la Muerte

Las gemelas de Auschwitz

Eva Mozes en haar tweelingzus Miriam werden in Auschwitz onderworpen aan de mensonterende experimenten van dr. Mengele, en wisten die hel te overleven. ‘De tweeling van Auschwitz’ is Eva’s verhaal. Eva en Miriam Mozes waren tien jaar oud toen ze aankwamen in Auschwitz. Toen de nazi’s zagen dat ze een tweeling waren, werden ze onmiddellijk gescheiden van de rest van hun familie. Vanaf dat moment waren ze onderdeel van dr. Mengeles ‘verzameling’ tweelingen, en werden onderworpen aan mensonterende experimenten. Eva en haar zus overleefden de gruwelen van het kamp, de bevrijding door de Russen en de barre tocht terug naar huis. Dit is Eva’s verhaal.

Ich habe den Todesengel überlebt

Eva Mozes Kor was just ten years old when she arrived in Auschwitz. While her parents and two older sisters were taken to the gas chambers, she and her twin, Miriam, were herded into the care of the man known as the Angel of Death, Dr. Josef Mengele. Subjected to sadistic medical experiments, she was forced to fight daily for her and her twin's survival. In this incredible true story written for young adults, readers learn of a child's endurance and survival in the face of truly extraordinary evil and Eva's recovery and her controversial but often misunderstood decision to publicly forgive the Nazis.

In welcoming refugees from Syria, European countries are showing the world what mercy looks like. But mercy, surely, doesn't stop there. What if the United States followed Germany's lead and offered mercy to the throngs of Central Americans who seek to cross its southern border? What does mercy look like in relation to the 2.2 million people being held in US prisons and jails? Or the working poor unable to adequately care for their families? Or the millions of children paying the bitter price of the sexual revolution and its erosion of lifelong marriage? The diverse contributors to this issue of Plough Quarterly focus on how people of faith, by extending forgiveness and mercy, are transforming lives - and perhaps even the course of world events. Perspectives from Philip Yancey, Gerhard Müller, Hanna-Barbara Gerl-Falkovitz, Charles E. Moore, Eva Mozes Kor, Leo Tolstoy, Charles Williams, Hashim Garrett, Michael Manning, Kim Hyun-sik, Graham Greene, Julian of Norwich, and Eberhard Arnold are sure to stimulate reflection and discussion. And as always, the magazine is illustrated with world-class art by the likes of Ferdinand Hodler, Camille Pissarro, Rembrandt, Fra Angelico, Henry Ossawa Tanner, Fritz von Uhde, Jon Redmond, Balázs Boda, Allan Rohan Crite, and Jason Landsel. Plough Quarterly features stories, ideas, and culture for people eager to put their faith into action. Each issue brings you in-depth articles, interviews, poetry, book reviews, and art to help you put Jesus' message into practice and find common cause with others.

Mercy

Plough Quarterly No. 7

The illuminating and deeply moving true story of twin sisters who survived Nazi experimentation, against all odds, during the Holocaust. Eva and her identical twin sister, Miriam, had a mostly happy childhood. Theirs was the only Jewish family in their small village in the Transylvanian mountains, but they didn't think much of it until anti-Semitism reared its ugly head in their school. Then, in 1944, ten-year-old Eva and her family were deported to Auschwitz. At its gates, Eva and Miriam were separated from their parents and other siblings, selected as subjects for Dr. Mengele's infamous medical experiments. During the course of the war, Mengele would experiment on 3,000 twins. Only 160 would survive--including Eva and Miriam. Writing with her friend Danica Davidson, Eva reveals how two young girls were able to survive the unimaginable cruelty of the Nazi regime, while also eventually finding healing and the capacity to forgive. Spare and poignant, I Will Protect You is a vital memoir of survival, loss, and forgiveness.

A True Story of Twins Who Survived Auschwitz

I Will Protect You

Eva Mozes Kor, who had survived the holocaust as a young child, passed away on July 4, 2019, during her annual trip with students to Auschwitz. But Eva’s legacy will live on and so will her life-changing message. Eva Mozes Kor was just ten years old when she was sent to Auschwitz. While her parents and two older sisters were murdered there, she and her twin sister Miriam were subjected to medical experiments at the hands of Dr. Joseph Mengele. Later on, when Miriam fell ill due to the long-term effects of the experiments, Eva embarked on a search for their torturers. But what she discovered was the remedy for her troubled soul; she was able to forgive them. Told through anecdotes and in response to letters and questions at her public appearances, she imparts a powerful lesson for all survivors that guilt, anger, resentment, and shame are a waste of energy. Forgiveness of our tormentors and ourselves is the end of victimization, a release from pain, and fosters resilience. This kind of forgiveness is not an act of self-denial. It actively releases people from trauma, allowing them to escape from the grip of their former tormentors, cast off the role of victim, and begin the struggle against forgetting in earnest. “She dedicated herself decades later to telling of the Holocaust horrors spawned by religious and racial hatred, while preaching the power of forgiveness as a means of healing from devastating trauma.”—Richard Goldstein, New York Times obituaries, July 7, 2019
