Kartell Conventus (Australia): Newsletter

Scope and Content

Newsletter written by Karl Freeman in Sydney, containing a contribution from George Bergmann.

Administrative / Biographical History

Kartell Conventus is the generic name for German Jewish student fraternities which were established in the 1880s as a result of increasing anti-Semitism. After the Nazi seizure of power in Germany in 1933 and the annexation of Austria in 1938 these fraternities were banned. However after the war many former members joined re-formed student fraternities in their adopted countries. These new organisations produced newsletters and held regular meetings.
