| Sumario: | After the rise of National Socialism in 1933 and the invasion of its troops over European territory, Argentina became a transcendental node of German-speaking exile. Around 40,000 emigrants arrived on the shores of Buenos Aires during the period 1933-1945. One of the exiles who arrived in Argentina was Livia Neumann, who was quickly inserted in the main German-language anti-Hitlerist periodical in Latin America, the Argentinisches Tageblatt. The following article aims to recover the journalistic work of the exiled Livia Neumann published in the weekly Argentinisches Wochenblatt –sister publication of the newspaper– during the period 1938-1939. In detail, how this particular aspect of her work in the Alemann family’s periodicals is a historical testimony that allows us to approach different aspects of the German-speaking exile in the region. For this, we will focus on three aspects: 1) Her concern to inform about the consequences of the National Socialist advance on Europe, 2) the reproduction of migrant testimonies that show the delicate social and juridical conditions of the German-speaking exile and 3) the denunciation of the Nazi crimes in the concentration camps. |
