The Jews incarcerated in Nazi camps were cut off not only from the rest of the world, they were cut off with respect to time. Prisoners were not allowed to possess the basic tools to track time, such as calendars and watches. The lack of calendars made it impossible for traditional Jews to follow the ritual cycle of Sabbaths and Jewish holidays. Thus, there were attempts to make calendars clandestinely in the camps. Examines two calendars that were handwritten by female Jewish prisoners in Auschwitz-Birkenau in 1944, for the upcoming Jewish year 5705 (1944-45): one by Sophie Sohlberg (née Löwenstein) and another by Anneliese Borinski (in Israel her name is Ora Aloni). Notes that while Sohlberg was brought up in an Orthodox family, Borinski belonged to a more secular milieu. Concludes that camp calendars are symptomatic of the importance of Jewish religious and cultural life in the Holocaust.
