Otto Dov Kulka, who has died aged 87, was an award-winning Israeli historian and survivor of the concentration camps at Terezin (Theresienstadt) and Auschwitz.
For decades he taught at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem about the origins of Nazi ideology and the Holocaust, and wrote extensively on the subject, without telling students (or almost anyone) that he himself was a survivor.
