Life and work
Aronson was born in 1936 as the second son of the engineer Yaakov Aronson and his wife Bella. He attended elementary school in Tel Aviv and the humanistic grammar school Tichon-Hadash, where he passed the school leaving examination in August 1954 .
After two years of military service in the Israeli army , Aronson began studying history and politics at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem in 1956 . In 1959 he passed the state examination. This was followed by a three-year in-depth study of general history and contemporary Jewish history as a postgraduate. During this time Aronson married Dalia Garti. The marriage produced a son and a daughter. He also joined the Israeli State Broadcasting Company as a news editor at that time .
From 1960 to 1961, Aronson reported as a radio reporter on the Eichmann trial in Jerusalem. Influenced by this experience, he decided to travel to the Federal Republic of Germany in order to research the early history of the Gestapo and the SD , which at that time was largely in the dark . After attending a German course and completing another semester at the University of Munich , Aronson went to the Free University of Berlin in March 1963 , where he worked on his dissertation from 1963 to 1966, which dealt with Reinhard Heydrich and the beginnings of the SD and the Gestapo concerned.
During his stay in Germany, Aronson also worked as a correspondent for the Israeli State Radio in the Federal Republic and as a commentator for the Haaretz , Tel Aviv.
From 1966 Aronson taught as a lecturer at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem.
