Book excerpt: Adolf Hitler. No other figure in contemporary history is associated with such far-reaching historical impact and such monstrous crimes. His name alone is emblematic of world war and holocaust. If only because of the barbarity for which he is responsible, Adolf Hitler has become an anxiety neurosis, a vision of horror. And that is why he remains even now, as he was to many of his contemporaries an incomprehensible mystery.

Book In the Shadow of the Swastika

Download or read book In the Shadow of the Swastika written by Marzia Casolari and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-30 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines and establishes connections between Italian Fascism and Hindu nationalism, connections which developed within the frame of Italy’s anti-British foreign policy. The most remarkable contacts with the Indian political milieu were established via Bengali nationalist circles. Diplomats and intellectuals played an important role in establishing and cultivating those tie-ups. Tagore’s visit to Italy in 1925 and the much more relevant liaison between Subhas Chandra Bose and the INA were results of the Italian propaganda and activities in India. But the most meaningful part of this book is constituted by the connections and influences it establishes between Fascism as an ideology and a political system and Marathi Hindu nationalism. While examining fascist political literature and Mussolini’s figure and role, Marathi nationalists were deeply impressed and influenced by the political ideology itself, the duce and fascist organisations. These impressions moulded the RSS, a right-wing, Hindu nationalist organisation, and Hindutva ideology, with repercussions on present Indian politics. This is the most original and revealing part of the book, entirely based on unpublished sources, and will prove foundational for scholars of modern Indian history.

  • Author : Richard Plant
  • Publisher : Holt Paperbacks
  • Release : 2011-04-01
  • ISBN : 9781429936934
  • Pages : 272 pages

Download or read book The Pink Triangle written by Richard Plant and published by Holt Paperbacks. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first comprehensive book in English on the fate of the homosexuals in Nazi Germany. The author, a German refugee, examines the climate and conditions that gave rise to a vicious campaign against Germany's gays, as directed by Himmler and his SS--persecution that resulted in tens of thousands of arrests and thousands of deaths. In this Nazi crusade, homosexual prisoners were confined to death camps where, forced to wear pink triangles, they constituted the lowest rung in the camp hierarchy. The horror of camp life is described through diaries, previously untranslated documents, and interviews with and letters from survivors, revealing how the anti-homosexual campaign was conducted, the crackpot homophobic fantasies that fueled it, the men who made it possible, and those who were its victims, this chilling book sheds light on a corner of twentieth-century history that has been hidden in the shadows much too long.

Book Stormtrooper Families

Download or read book Stormtrooper Families written by Andrew Wackerfuss and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2015-08-18 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on extensive archival work, Stormtrooper Families combines stormtrooper personnel records, Nazi Party autobiographies, published and unpublished memoirs, personal letters, court records, and police-surveillance records to paint a picture of the stormtrooper movement as an organic product of its local community, its web of interpersonal relationships, and its intensely emotional internal struggles. Extensive analysis of Nazi-era media across the political spectrum shows how the public debate over homosexuality proved just as important to political outcomes as did the actual presence of homosexuals in fascist and antifascist politics. As children in the late-imperial period, the stormtroopers witnessed the first German debates over homosexuality and political life. As young adults, they verbally and physically battled over these definitions, bringing conflicts over homosexuality and masculinity into the center of Weimar Germany's most important political debates. Stormtrooper Families chronicles the stormtroopers' personal, political, and sexual struggles to explain not only how individual gay men existed within the Nazi movement but also how the public meaning of homosexuality affected fascist and antifascist politics—a public controversy still alive today.

Download or read book The Pink Line written by Mark Gevisser and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2020-07-28 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of TIME's 100 Must-Read Books of 2020. Longlisted for the 2021 Rathbones Folio Prize. "[Mark] Gevisser is clear-eyed and wise enough to have a sharp sense of how tough the struggle has been, and how hard it will be now for those who have not succeeded in finding shelter from prejudice." --Colm Tóibín, The Guardian A groundbreaking look at how the issues of sexuality and gender identity divide and unite the world today More than seven years in the making, Mark Gevisser’s The Pink Line: Journeys Across the World’s Queer Frontiers is an exploration of how the conversation around sexual orientation and gender identity has come to divide—and describe—the world in an entirely new way over the first two decades of the twenty-first century. No social movement has brought change so quickly and with such dramatically mixed results. While same-sex marriage and gender transition are celebrated in some parts of the world, laws are being strengthened to criminalize homosexuality and gender nonconformity in others. As new globalized queer identities are adopted by people across the world—thanks to the digital revolution—fresh culture wars have emerged. A new Pink Line, Gevisser argues, has been drawn across the globe, and he takes readers to its frontiers. Between sensitive and sometimes startling profiles of the queer folk he’s encountered along the Pink Line, Gevisser offers sharp analytical chapters exploring identity politics, religion, gender ideology, capitalism, human rights, moral panics, geopolitics, and what he calls “the new transgender culture wars.” His subjects include a Ugandan refugee in flight to Canada, a trans woman fighting for custody of her child in Moscow, a lesbian couple campaigning for marriage equality in Mexico, genderqueer high schoolers coming of age in Michigan, a gay Israeli-Palestinian couple searching for common ground, and a community of kothis—“women’s hearts in men’s bodies”—who run a temple in an Indian fishing village. What results is a moving and multifaceted picture of the world today, and the queer people defining it. Eye-opening, heartfelt, expertly researched, and compellingly narrated, The Pink Line is a monumental—and urgent—journey of unprecedented scope into twenty-first-century identity, seen through the border posts along the world’s new LGBTQ+ frontiers.

Book Moroni and the Swastika

    Book Details:
  • Author : David Conley Nelson
  • Publisher : University of Oklahoma Press
  • Release : 2015-03-02
  • ISBN : 0806149744
  • Pages : 380 pages

Download or read book Moroni and the Swastika written by David Conley Nelson and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2015-03-02 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Adolf Hitler’s National Socialist government was persecuting Jews and Jehovah’s Witnesses and driving forty-two small German religious sects underground, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints continued to practice unhindered. How some fourteen thousand Mormons not only survived but thrived in Nazi Germany is a story little known, rarely told, and occasionally rewritten within the confines of the Church’s history—for good reason, as we see in David Conley Nelson’s Moroni and the Swastika. A page-turning historical narrative, this book is the first full account of how Mormons avoided Nazi persecution through skilled collaboration with Hitler’s regime, and then eschewed postwar shame by constructing an alternative history of wartime suffering and resistance. The Twelfth Article of Faith and parts of the 134th Section of the Doctrine and Covenants function as Mormonism’s equivalent of the biblical admonition to “render unto Caesar,” a charge to cooperate with civil government, no matter how onerous doing so may be. Resurrecting this often-violated doctrinal edict, ecclesiastical leaders at the time developed a strategy that protected Mormons within Nazi Germany. Furthermore, as Nelson shows, many Mormon officials strove to fit into the Third Reich by exploiting commonalities with the Nazi state. German Mormons emphasized a mutual interest in genealogy and a passion for sports. They sent husbands into the Wehrmacht and sons into the Hitler Youth, and they prayed for a German victory when the war began. They also purged Jewish references from hymnals, lesson plans, and liturgical practices. One American mission president even wrote an article for the official Nazi Party newspaper, extolling parallels between Utah Mormon and German Nazi society. Nelson documents this collaboration, as well as subsequent efforts to suppress it by fashioning a new collective memory of ordinary German Mormons’ courage and travails during the war. Recovering this inconvenient past, Moroni and the Swastika restores a complex and difficult chapter to the history of Nazi Germany and the Mormon Church in the twentieth century—and offers new insight into the construction of historical truth.

Download or read book The Pink Swastika written by Dov Ivry and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2013-01-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Psalm 37 says the meek shall inherit the earth. When that happens there will be peace on earth. Who are the meek? Ruling out aliens and other animal species who suddenly evolve into sentient beings, there are only two groups to choose from: men and women. Since all things are relative and by a process of elimination, it has to be the women. This links directly to the second covenant. The Supreme Being sealed two covenants on the same day in the same place. The first went to Avraham. Employing a false gender, masculine, She awarded his descendants a patch of land in western Asia. That was to provide a contra, a structure, a yang, the same structure of which the universe is made, yin and yang. The precise term for the reason that She used a false gender in this instance is "fictionalism," which is the equivalent of "pragmatism." The second went to the women of Africa in recognition of their developing the kind of society that the Mother Goddess wants established on earth. It is called Matriarchy. Their representative was a simple proletarian woman named Hagar. This covenant has yet to be implemented. What happened next is this. Avraham's descendants built Her embassy on earth, the Temple. It was destroyed. Cyrus, king of Iran, enabled it to be rebuilt. For that he was awarded the title of the Messiah. Avraham's descendants made a blood brother pact with one of last of the great matriarchies, which was Sparta. The Mother Goddess next had to wait until they closed off their holy books so as not to cause confusion and then She revealed the name by which She wishes to be known at the Temple, which belongs to the entire species, and on earth generally. That is Shekinah; in the correct feminine gender. At that point the Temple was destroyed and we entered into a long hiatus. The swastika, running the other way to that of the Nazis, is the symbol of Kali, the last moon goddess standing, and is the mark of the feminine principle. Color that pink. The prophet Zechariah in his vision of Kali, the woman in the flying saucer, made the call that she would be kept alive, put on a firm foundation, and domiciled at Calnah. Today a large temple dedicated to Kali is located at Kalna, India. She was taken away by female angels with wings of storks; the wings of storks in ancient northern Greece were synonymous with the swastika. No one can write history before it occurs. Anything in fact can happen. But given the elements in place one can suggest scenarios. These by definition are far-fetched. None is more far-fetched than what I have conjured up in this book. The action begins when Lulu, the wife of a motorcycle gang leader in England, runs off to a commune called Styx 666 seeking asylum. The people there were living quietly and out of sight dedicated to the Mother Goddess and to re-establishing the Matriarchy, a modified and updated version of the archetype, Sparta. The gang comes after her, all hell breaks loose, and the action spreads to other parts of England, Montreal, New Orleans, upper New York state, Maine, the Bahamas, and Uzbekistan. The British press refers to Lulu as Helen of Troy because not only did her beauty rival that of the Spartan queen but she also launched a conflict that straddled two continents. My name is Dov Ivry. I am from Saint John, New Brunswick, Canada, currently a resident of Israel. I have written six non-fiction books. This is my first novel. Due to the violence, sex, and bad language in the book it is not suitable for those who have not attained 18 years of age. Home Page: https: //sites.google.com/site/2inimeg/home

Book World War Two  Under the Shadow of the Swastika

Download or read book World War Two Under the Shadow of the Swastika written by Lewis Helfand and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2016-02-16 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume of Campfire's graphic history of World War II deals with the war in Europe from the rise of the Nazis through to May 1945 and VE Day. World War II shows the effects of the war on the soldiers, the refugees, the victims and protagonists of the most terrible conflict the world has ever known. In a world that is forgetting the lessons history has to teach, this book is a reminder of the horrors that come from intolerance. In the 1930s, a great evil was rising in the heart of Europe, a threat unlike any seen before. German leader Adolf Hitler, a madman bent on world domination, was raising an army and growing more violent by the day. The world knew that Hitler had to be stopped. But fearing a war, this growing threat of Hitler's Nazi army was left unchecked. The world simply watched as Germany sank into darkness. The world merely prayed that war would not breach their borders. The world waited. And they waited too long. As cities fell to ruin and millions were slaughtered, the growing darkness of Hitler and his Nazi empire branched out far beyond Europe—to Asia and Africa and America—and soon threatened to claim the entire world. France, England, Russia, the United States… no single nation had the strength to combat this darkness, at least not on their own. With the fate of the world hanging in the balance, the one final, desperate hope was that all of these nations united together might muster the strength to save humanity.
