Hitler’s Private Library : The Books That Shaped His Life

Attribution
by Timothy W. RybackPublication Details
Book1st edAlfred A. Knopf2008Description
A brilliantly original exploration of some of the formative influences in Hitler?s life?the books he most revered, and how they shaped the man and his thinking. We learn how hisextensive readings on religion and the occult provide the blueprint for his notion of divine providence, how the words of Nietzsche and Schopenhauer are reborn as infamous Nazi catchphrases, and, finally, how a biography of Frederick the Great fired the destructive fanaticism that compelled Hitler to continue fighting World War II when all hope of victory was lost. Hitler?s Private Library, a landmark in the study of the Third Reich, offers a remarkable view into Hitler?s intellectual world and personal evolution.

Life And Death In The Third Reich

Attribution
Peter FritzschePublication Details
BookBelknap Press of Harvard University Press2008Description
On January 30, 1933, hearing about the celebrations for Hitler’s assumption of power, Erich Ebermayer remarked bitterly in his diary, “We are the losers, definitely the losers.” Learning of the Nuremberg Laws in 1935, which made Jews non-citizens, he raged, “hate is sown a million-fold.” Yet in March 1938, he wept for joy at the Anschluss with Austria: “Not to want it just because it has been achieved by Hitler would be folly.” In a masterful work, Peter Fritzsche deciphers the puzzle of Nazism’s ideological grip.
