Dear All,

   I am looking for any sources in English or German regarding the post-war
Soviet trials of Nazis in Minsk.  Thanks!

…The reconstruction of worlds is one of the historian’s most important
tasks.  He undertakes it, not from some strange urge to dig up archives and
sift through old paper, but because he wants to talk with the dead.  By
putting questions to documents and listening to replies, he can sound dead
souls and take the measure of the societies they inhabited. If we lost all
contact with the worlds we have lost, we would be condemned to live in a
two-dimensional, time-bound present, and our own world would turn flat.
           -Robert Darnton
