Verlagsinfo: Riga war das Zentrum jüdischen Lebens in Lettland. Mit dem Einmarsch deutscher Truppen im Juli 1941 wurde die Stadt zu einem Zielort von Deportationen und zum Tatort nationalsozialistischer Vernichtungspolitik. Angehörige von SS, Polizei und Wehrmacht sowie lokale Hilfstruppen ermordeten fast alle lettischen sowie die aus Deutschland, Wien, Prag und Brünn nach Riga deportierten Jüdinnen und Juden. Unter den Deportierten waren auch 753 Hamburgerinnen und Hamburger. Der Hannoversche Bahnhof war Ausgangspunkt, aber auch Zwischenstation für Deportationen aus Norddeutschland nach Riga. Die wenigen Überlebenden kehrten nur selten in ihre Heimatländer zurück. Zumeist kämpften sie vergeblich um Gerechtigkeit. Ebenso blieb eine umfassende juristische Aufarbeitung der Verbrechen aus. Zwei der umfangreichsten Verfahren zu den deutschen Verbrechen in Riga fanden in den 1950er und 1970er Jahren vor dem Hamburger Landgericht statt. Heute ist der Hannoversche Bahnhof in Hamburg ein wichtiger Erinnerungsort an die Deportationen nach Riga. Die Ausstellung möchte dazu beitragen, die Deportationen nach Riga und das nationalsozialistische Morden im öffentlichen Gedenken Deutschlands wie auch Lettlands zu verankern.

This edition of the laws promulgated by successive Anglo-Saxon rulers over a period of five centuries was published in three volumes between 1903 and 1916 by the German historian Felix Lieberman (1851-1925), and is still regarded as authoritative. This unique body of early medieval legal writing, unparalleled in other Germanic languages, provides valuable source material for scholars of Old English and of legal history, and Lieberman's thorough engagement with the manuscripts has never been surpassed. Volume 3 provides introductions to each set of laws presented in Volume 1, and detailed line-by-line explanatory notes that complement the dictionary and glossary of terms found in Volume 2. Frederick Attenborough's The Laws of the Early English Kings (1922), providing a modern English translation of early Anglo-Saxon laws, is also reissued in this series

This unique body of early medieval legal writing, unparalleled in other Germanic languages, provides valuable source material for scholars of Old English and of legal history, and Lieberman's thorough engagement with the manuscripts has never been surpassed. His preface explains that owing to factors such as the extreme variability of Old English orthography, and the existence of both Latin and Old English versions of the same material, a traditional edition using just one base manuscript with a critical apparatus would have been too unwieldy. Volume 1 introduces the manuscripts, and gives several parallel versions of each text in Old English and Latin with a facing translation into modern German.
