The three excerpts presented here are taken from the first issue of the school newspaper of the Jüdisches Landschulheim Herrlingen  Jewish rural boarding school Herrlingen, Herrlinger Leben: Blätter des jüd. Landschulheims Herrlingen bei Ulm a. D. The Landschulheim had originally been established in 1926 by Anna Essinger as a progressive pedagogical establishment. In late 1933, following Essinger´s decision to move her school along with a number of pupils to England, and in reaction to the persecution of Jews and growing uncertainty they felt under the National Socialist regime, the pedagogue and Zionist Hugo Rosenthal took over the Landschulheim. His goal was to make it into a specifically Jewish institution, though several non-Jewish students studied there in the first years. Herrlinger Leben was one of two school newspapers written by the pupils themselves between the years 1934 and 1938, the other being the later Chayenu [Our life]. Both newspapers reported on daily life, the goals and aims of the school, major events, Jewish holidays, and cultural-religious practices. The school newspapers also included fictional stories and artwork created by pupils. Taken together, the newspaper presents a relatively rare glimpse into the minds and experiences of Jewish youth in 1930s Germany. The four excerpted pages reflect three distinct texts and voices. The first page introduces the newspaper as a collective voice of the student body. A short essay that explains one student's motivations for coming to a Jewish school can be found on the second and third pages. The last excerpted page is a comical drawing.
