This book explores the lives and contributions of prominent scholars in Oriental studies during the early 20th century, many of whom faced profound challenges due to the rise of Nazism. Through detailed chapters, it examines figures like Friedrich Kern, Eugen Mittwoch, and Abraham Shalom Yahuda, highlighting their groundbreaking research, personal struggles, and the impact of their forced migrations. The narrative also delves into the transformation of Islamic studies, the loss of German leadership in the field, and the internationalization of scholarship. A poignant reminder of resilience, this work sheds light on the enduring legacy of these scholars in shaping modern Oriental studies.
