Download or read book Hitler s Followers RLE Nazi Germany Holocaust written by Detlef Muhlberger and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-04 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When originally published in 1991, this book was the first systematic, detailed evaluation of the social structure of the Nazi Party in several regions of Germany during its so-called Kampfzeit phase. Based on extensive archival material, much of it left untouched since the end of the war until Detlef Mühlberger uncovered it, the book demonstrates that the Nazi Party and its major auxiliaries, the SA and the SS mobilized support which was remarkably heterogeneous in social terms. The author reveals that in addition to followers from the middle and upper social classes the Nazi Party enjoyed strong support among the lower class and it was indeed, as it claimed to be a people’s party, or Volkspartei.

Download or read book HITLER CHRIST written by Ian Tinny and published by No Pledge Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-14 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Millions of lives worldwide were impacted by the events. Don't fall prey to the lies your teachers taught you. Learn about the mysteries of the symbolism. Never-before-revealed secrets are exposed. And what about the followers? Who did what to whom? Some of them remain with us today. They use crosses as important -even magical- emblems. This book reveals both occult and cult knowledge. Explore the ideologies in these cryptic pages. Widely proclaimed a classic work of historical scholarship, "Hitler Christ" has been hailed as the most eloquent of Ian Tinny's many books. The fruit of many years of reflection and research, it is a dramatic and moving recounting of the darkest chapters survived by humanity. A penetrating study of the personification of evil. This landmark work provides revealing looks at the megalomania, delusions of grandeur, and schizophrenia. All the monstrous parts are dissected in this autopsy. Drawing on previously unseen papers and a wealth of recent scholarship, Tinny explores Professor Rex Curry's research to shine important new light on all the cadavers. For too long the world has tried to grasp how it was possible. This riveting biography brings us closer than ever to the answer. Many previous books have focused only on larger social conditions to explain these historical topics. With his customary insight and irreverence, Tinny interprets the evidence and describes events not only in historical perspective but also in exciting and contemporary terms -- seeing in calamities both modern parallels and timeless lessons. His thoughtful, probing analysis provides new insight into well-known episodes. An appealing blend of philosophy, history, and philological exegesis, from the most-loved American historical leader of the twenty-first century, "Hitler Christ" has long been a source of inspiration and guidance. For those seeking to better understand the mixed messages of the ages, this vivid review is a must-read. "...author Ian Tinny recalls Dr. Rex Curry's love of history, his insatiable curiosity and academia's unwavering belief in his prodigious talent. Dr. Curry's neologistic side, with regard to the fashioning of modernity and the influence and effluence of totalitarian culture are often elided by critics and thus lost in translation. Paradoxically, it is Dr. Curry's very act of exposing so many misrepresentations that conjures a positive corporeal valence between the historian and our sense of self or identity." - Philological Foundation of America "Dr. Rex Curry is a pop-culture icon by being a pop-culture iconoclast. This holds true regarding Adolf Hitler and Jesus Christ in 'Hitler Christ' and its biographical critiques." - Blue Teapot Review "All anarchists can unite behind this fascinating book. It should be required reading each day in all schools ...right after the Pledge of Allegiance." - Anarchist Book Society Did Stalin, Mao, Hitler and their ilk prove that there is no God?

Download or read book Selling Hitler written by Nicholas O'Shaughnessy and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-09-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hitler was one of the few politicians who understood that persuasion was everything, deployed to anchor an entire regime in the confections of imagery, rhetoric and dramaturgy. The Nazis pursued propaganda not just as a tool, an instrument of government, but also as the totality, the raison d'être, the medium through which power itself was exercised. Moreover, Nicholas O'Shaughnessy argues, Hitler, not Goebbels, was the prime mover in the propaganda regime of the Third Reich - its editor and first author. Under the Reich everything was a propaganda medium, a building-block of public consciousness, from typography to communiqués, to architecture, to weapons design. There were groups to initiate rumours and groups to spread graffiti. Everything could be interrogated for its propaganda potential, every surface inscribed with polemical meaning, whether an enemy city's name, an historical epic or the poster on a neighbourhood wall. But Hitler was in no sense an innovator - his ideas were always second-hand. Rather his expertise was as a packager, fashioning from the accumulated mass of icons and ideas, the historic debris, the labyrinths and byways of the German mind, a modern and brilliant political show articulated through deftly managed symbols and rituals. The Reich would have been unthinkable without propaganda - it would not have been the Reich.

Download or read book The Hitler Filmography written by Charles P. Mitchell and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the time his Nazi regime launched World War II to the present, Adolf Hitler has frequently been depicted on film. He was largely ridiculed at first, since laughter was a powerful weapon and morale booster for nations at war. Later representations were more somber and realistic, yet Hitler's image never escaped the undertone of scorn. This book concentrates exclusively on portrayals of Hitler in feature films and television miniseries. The filmography covers films with a factual historical storyline, fictional stories, alternate histories, parodies and films where actors playing Hitler have a cameo. Each entry provides production credits, an annotated cast list, an analysis and synopsis of the film, an evaluation of the actor playing Hitler in terms of the strengths and weaknesses of his portrayal, and representative quotations from the film.

Download or read book I Am Your Negro Adolf Hitler written by Dead Writers Club and published by No Pledge Publishing & Pointer Institute Publishing. This book was released on 2017-08-11 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did Adolf Hitler and his ideological ilk launch our world's modern police state? Discover how the military salute was the origin of the Nazi salute. Learn how the USA's Pledge of Allegiance made it happen. See photos of swastikas worn by American soldiers and the military before Hitler. The old media recycle stereotypes about Hitler. Why do people who hate Hitler glorify his dogma globally? The new media perpetuate the same stereotypes. Adolf Hitler is the scapegoat for today's authoritarianism. They do it to cover-up amazing truths exposed in this book: (1) the USA's Pledge of Allegiance to the flag was the origin of the Nazi salute and Nazi behavior; (2) the swastika was used by Nazis to represent crossed "S" letter symbols for "socialism." After WWI, when Lenin was seizing power in Russia, was Hitler watching Lenin, and emulating in Germany Lenin's power grab in Russia? The "Furher" did the same regarding Stalin. Hitler patterned himself after Lenin and Stalin. They were parallel lives. Discover the parallel lives of Lenin, Stalin, Mao, and Hitler (born 1870, 1878, 1889, 1893, respectively). Hitler became the black sheep of the political movement he championed. He was the scapegoat for Stalin, Mao and all socialists who blame “Hitler, Nazism, and Fascism.” Was Hitler a political transvestite? This is a study of one of the deadliest eras in humanity's history. The Dead Writers Club draws upon our understanding of the universalities of human nature to explore the ageless issues of evil, suffering, and the indomitable will of the human spirit. It explores the fields of anarchaeology and misanthropology. This book examines the anatomy of the state. All the monstrous post-mortem parts are dissected in this autopsy. New light is shined on the putrid cadaver. They say "truth is stranger than fiction" and this book shows how it just can be. For too long the world has tried to grasp how it was possible. This riveting semi-biographical work brings us closer than ever to the answer. The Dead Writers Club (DWC) mined Professor Rex Curry's published and unpublished oeuvre, selecting passages from his essays, letters, notes, and interviews that are every bit as incisive and pertinent now as they have ever been. Weaving these texts together, DWC brilliantly imagines the book that Dr. Curry never wrote. DWC's publication uses Curry's work to jump through time in a blazing examination of the tragic story of world history. Dr. Curry is an unlikely angel of hope during one of history's darkest hours. The result is a radical, up-to-the-minute examination of authoritarianism in America and worldwide, with a flood of rich archival material. "I Am Your Negro" is a journey into global persecution that contrasts the past of the Individual Rights movement to the present of the modern police state. This book questions the presentation of liberty in Hollywood and beyond. The DWC has produced a work that challenges the very definition of what America stands for. "The new book by the Dead Writers Club is 'I Am Your Negro.' It explains many of the ways in which the venerable Dr. Rex Curry has blown our minds. Dr. Curry's academic work is cited in many books on Amazon, Kindle, and other sources." - Uhren Schmuck Buch Society of Germany "Adolf Hitler's ideas led to war, genocide, totalitarian oppression, family breakdown, and disastrous social experiments. And yet his bad ideas are still popular and pervasive--in fact, they might influence your own thinking without your realizing it. Here with the antidote is the Dead Writers Club in this scintillating new book." - Rev. Drosselgasse Rheinfahrt "Buy this book while it's legal. Rex rox!" - the Asthmatic Cat Foundation "Tinny slams more ideological ice picks into the global hive mind." - Dr. Herren N. Damen

Download or read book Hitler s Munich written by David Ian Hall and published by Pen and Sword Military. This book was released on 2021-01-18 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An acclaimed historian of twentieth century Germany provides a vivid account of Hitler’s rise to power and its intimate connection to the Bavarian capital. The immediate aftermath of the Great War and the Versailles Treaty created a perfect storm of economic, social, political and cultural factors which facilitated the rapid rise of Adolf Hitler’s political career and the birth of the National Socialist German Worker’s Party. The breeding ground for this world-changing evolution was the city of Munich. In Hitler’s Munich, renowned historian David Ian Hall examines the origins and growth of Hitler’s National Socialism through the lens of this unique city. By connecting the sites where Hitler and his accomplices built the movement, Hall offers a clear and concrete understanding of the causes, background, motivation, and structures of the Party. Hitler’s Munich is a cultural and political portrait of the city, a biography of the Fuhrer, and a history of National Socialism. All three interacted in this expertly rendered exploration of their interconnections and significance.

Download or read book Hitler written by Peter Longerich and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-09-05 with total page 1339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of the most prominent biographers of the Nazi period, a new and provocative portrait of the figure behind the century's worst crimes Acclaimed historian Peter Longerich, author of Goebbels and Heinrich Himmler now turns his attention to Adolf Hitler in this new biography. While many previous portraits have speculated about Hitler's formative years, Longerich focuses on his central role as the driving force of Nazism itself. You cannot separate the man from the monstrous movement he came to embody. From his ascendance through the party's ranks to his final hours as Führer in April 1945, Longerich shows just how ruthless Hitler was in his path to power. He emphasizes Hitler's political skills as Germany gained prominence on the world's stage. Hitler's rise to, and ultimate hold on, power was more than merely a matter of charisma; rather, it was due to his ability to control the structure he created. His was an image constructed by his regime - an essential piece self-created of propaganda. This comprehensive biography is the culmination of Longerich's life-long pursuit to understand the man behind the century's worst crimes.

Download or read book The Fall of Hitler s Fortress City written by Isabel Denny and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-02-21 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The harrowing, tragic story of a city and a people ravaged by one of the most brutal battles of World War II. In 1945, in the face of the advancing Red Army, two and a half million people were forced out of Germany’s most easterly province, East Prussia, and in particular its capital, Königsberg. Their flight was a direct result of Hitler’s ill-fated decision to invade the Soviet Union in 1941. Now that the Germans were in retreat, the horrors of Leningrad and Stalingrad were to be avenged by an army determined not only to invade Germany but to take over its eastern territories. The Russians launched Operation Bagration in June 1944 to coincide with the D-Day landings. As US and British forces pushed west, the Russians liberated Eastern Europe and made their first attacks on German soil in the autumn of 1944. Königsberg itself was badly damaged by two British air raids at the end of August 1944, and the main offensive against the city by the Red Army began in January 1945. The depleted and poorly armed German army could do little to hold it back, and by the end of January, East Prussia was cut off. The Russians exacted a terrible revenge on the civilian population, who were forced to flee across the freezing Baltic coast in an attempt to escape. On April 9, the city surrendered to the Russians after a four-day onslaught. Through firsthand accounts as well as archival material, The Fall of Hitler’s Fortress City tells the dramatic story of a place and its people that bore the brunt of Russia’s vengeance against the Nazi regime.

Download or read book I Will Bear Witness Volume 1 written by Victor Klemperer and published by Modern Library. This book was released on 1999-11-15 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The publication of Victor Klemperer's secret diaries brings to light one of the most extraordinary documents of the Nazi period. "In its cool, lucid style and power of observation," said The New York Times, "it is the best written, most evocative, most observant record of daily life in the Third Reich." I Will Bear Witness is a work of literature as well as a revelation of the day-by-day horror of the Nazi years. A Dresden Jew, a veteran of World War I, a man of letters and historian of great sophistication, Klemperer recognized the danger of Hitler as early as 1933. His diaries, written in secrecy, provide a vivid account of everyday life in Hitler's Germany. What makes this book so remarkable, aside from its literary distinction, is Klemperer's preoccupation with the thoughts and actions of ordinary Germans: Berger the greengrocer, who was given Klemperer's house ("anti-Hitlerist, but of course pleased at the good exchange"), the fishmonger, the baker, the much-visited dentist. All offer their thoughts and theories on the progress of the war: Will England hold out? Who listens to Goebbels? How much longer will it last? This symphony of voices is ordered by the brilliant, grumbling Klemperer, struggling to complete his work on eighteenth-century France while documenting the ever- tightening Nazi grip. He loses first his professorship and then his car, his phone, his house, even his typewriter, and is forced to move into a Jews' House (the last step before the camps), put his cat to death (Jews may not own pets), and suffer countless other indignities. Despite the danger his diaries would pose if discovered, Klemperer sees it as his duty to record events. "I continue to write," he notes in 1941 after a terrifying run-in with the police. "This is my heroics. I want to bear witness, precise witness, until the very end." When a neighbor remarks that, in his isolation, Klemperer will not be able to cover the main events of the war, he writes: "It's not the big things that are important, but the everyday life of tyranny, which may be forgotten. A thousand mosquito bites are worse than a blow on the head. I observe, I note, the mosquito bites." This book covers the years from 1933 to 1941. Volume Two, from 1941 to 1945, will be published in 1999.

Download or read book Hitler s Brudervolk written by Geraldien von Frijtag Drabbe Künzel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first academic book on Dutch colonial aspirations and initiatives during WWII. Between the summers of 1941 and 1944, some 5,500 Dutch men and women left their occupied homeland to find employment in the so-called German Occupied Eastern Territories: Belarus, the Baltic countries and parts of Ukraine. This was the area designated for colonization by Germanic people. It was also the stage of the "Holocaust by Bullets," a centrally coordinated policy of exploitation and oppression and a ruthless anti-partisan war. This book seeks to answer why the Dutch decided to go there, how their recruitment, transfer and stay were organized, and how they reacted to this scene of genocidal violence. It is a close-up study of racial monomania, of empire-building on the old continent and of collaboration in Nazi-occupied Europe.

Book excerpt: No single human invention has transformed war more than the airplane—not even the atomic bomb. Even before the Wright Brothers’ first flight, predictions abounded of the devastating and terrible consequences this new invention would have as an engine of war. Soaring over the battlefield, the airplane became an unstoppable force that left no spot on earth safe from attack. Drawing on combat memoirs, letters, diaries, archival records, museum collections, and eyewitness accounts by the men who fought—and the men who developed the breakthrough inventions and concepts—acclaimed author Stephen Budiansky weaves a vivid and dramatic account of the airplane’s revolutionary transformation of modern warfare.
