Abstract
Tato diplomová práce se zabývá osudem liberecké rodiny Goltzových, továrníků z Hrádku nad Nisou a Višňové u Frýdlantu. Sleduje jejich původ, životy jednotlivých členů rodiny a dává si za cíl zasadit je do historického kontextu, zejména pak antisemitistického směřování tehdejší společnosti. Zásadní roli hrálo v osudech příslušníků rodiny Goltzových zavedení rasových zákonů v roce 1935, kdy byli označeni za Židy a museli čelit politice národního socialismu a holocaustu. Všechny čtyři děti postupně opustily Československo, později Protektorát Čechy a Morava, a jejich rodiče zůstali. Ačkoliv se nijak neidentifikovali s židovským původem, byli tito rodiče Otto a Anna Goltzovi umístěni v ghettu Terezín a později v koncentračním a vyhlazovacím táboře Osvětim. Z dětí válku přežily tři, čtvrtý syn zmizel v ghettu ve Lvově. Práce se dále skrze práci s orální historií snaží postihnout osudy přeživších příslušníků rodiny ve Švýcarsku, Jižní Africe a Berlíně.
This Master's thesis deals with the fate of the industrialist family Goltz from Reichenberg, who had their factories mainly in Grottau and Weigsdorf. It follows the origins of the family, the lives of the family members and focuses on the historical context of their lives, as well as the antisemitic atmosphere of the society of the time. The family being qualified as Jewish by the Nuremberg Racial Laws of 1935 was the most important factor in their fate. After that they had to face the course of the German national socialist agenda, as well as the Holocaust. All the four children of the family fled Czechoslovakia and later the Protectorate Böhmen und Mähren; however, their parents stayed. Although they had not identified with the Jewish descent themselves, these parents Otto and Anna Goltz where subsequently transported into the Theresienstadt Ghetto and subsequently into the extermination camp Auschwitz. Three of their children survived the Second world war, except for the oldest son, who vanished in the Lwów Ghetto. Through using the oral history, this Master's thesis strives to cover the fates of the surviving family members while living in Switzerland, South Africa and in Berlin.
