208 Writing in exile
In the 1930s some German authors in exile submitted their works to Dutch publishing companies. In 1934, for example, Joseph Roth (1894-1939) published Der Antichrist with Allert de Lange in Amsterdam. He found the eponym of this title in Soviet Russia and Nazi Germany, as well as in Hollywood. The archive of this publishing company, which also issued works by Bertolt Brecht, Stefan Zweig, and others, was confiscated by the Nazis in 1940 and returned to Amsterdam via Moscow and Potsdam in 1991.
