EDITORS COMMENTS
The print of "BOOK BURNING / 10. 5. 1933" captures a chilling moment in history when disruptive books from private and public libraries were burned in front of the University of Berlin. This barbaric act of censorship, which took place on May 10th, 1933, provoked a wave of disgust throughout the world. The image serves as a stark reminder of the power that censorship can wield and the lengths to which some will go to control information and ideas. The sight of books being destroyed in such a manner is deeply unsettling, symbolizing not only the physical destruction of knowledge but also an attack on freedom of thought. Events like these are crucial reminders of the importance of preserving intellectual freedom and resisting efforts to suppress dissenting voices. The historical significance of this incident cannot be overstated, as it stands as a testament to the dangers posed by authoritarian regimes. As we reflect on this dark chapter in history, let us remember those who fought against such oppressive actions and continue to uphold the values of free expression and open inquiry. The print serves as a powerful visual representation of the consequences that arise when ignorance and intolerance are allowed to flourish unchecked.
