| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to deal with the trends of the Christians of Jewish descent (Judenchristen) in the Third Reich. The head investigator visited the Archive of the Centre of Research on Anti-Semitism (ZfA) in the TU Berlin and the State-Archive of Ludwigsburg in order to collect historical materials, analyzed those documents, and gained the following results.
(1) The head investigator pursued the real image of the Rosenstrasse-protest, which had occurred on Feb. 27th, 1943 in Berlin at the Operation factory (Fablikaktion), the roundup of all still living Jews form their working and housing places around the Reich.

After the World War II Dr. Goldmann was denazified. He was sentenced as Hauptschuldiger (group 1) to three years workcamp-imprisonment. Also at the second judgment he had same result despite the prosecutor's appeal for Belasteter (group 2 ). The judges of the denazification-higher-court (Berufungskammer) had a Jewish image as an innocent victim, which could be compared to a women's image. Dr. Goldmann was sentenced with this Jewish image much more rigorously like the SS-Aufseherinnen (female SS-prisonguards) who had tormented prisoners as violently as male guards had done. Less
