[nb-NO]Description[nb-NO]
Focuses on the study of mathematics in the Theresienstadt ghetto, based on the notebook of an unknown student or group of students. The notebook sheds light on the intensive studies engaged in by the children of Theresienstadt. Studying under such conditions was a means of escaping from reality but also as a source of development for cognitive abilities and the capacity to contend with adversity.
