Professor Paul Jacobsthal was one of several eminent archaeologists to be interned on the Isle of Man. His report on his internment experience, written up shortly after his release and widely circulated, is one of the best surviving personal testimonies of the event. Recent work on Jacobsthal’s archives deposited at the University of Oxford has now revealed the original, personal diary he kept during his internment on which the later report was based. In addition, an early, unfinished and unpublished autobiography has also come to light. These discoveries allow a reconsideration of Paul Jacobsthal’s internment report and his motivations in writing it.
