New Political Ideas in the Aftermath of the Great War

  • Publisher: Springer

This edited collection presents new research on how the Great War and its aftermath shaped political thought in the interwar period across Europe. Assessing the major players of the war as well as more peripheral cases, the contributors challenge previous interpretations of the relationship between veterans and fascism, and provide new perspectives on how veterans tried to promote a new political and social order. Those who had frontline experience of the First World War committed themselves to constructing a new political and social order in war-torn Europe, shaped by their experience of the war and its aftermath. A number of them gave voice to the need for a world order free from political and social conflict, and all over Europe veterans imagined a third way between capitalist liberalism and state-controlled socialism. By doing so, many of them moved towards emerging fascist movements and became, in some case unwillingly, the heralds of totalitarian dictatorships.

Ian Kershaw's HITLER allows us to come closer than ever before to a serious understanding of the man and of the catastrophic sequence of events which allowed a bizarre misfit to climb from a Viennese dosshouse to leadership of one of Europe's most sophisticated countries. With extraordinary skill and vividness, drawing on a huge range of sources, Kershaw recreates the world which first thwarted and then nurtured the young Hitler. As his seemingly pitiful fantasy of being Germany's saviour attracted more and more support, Kershaw brilliantly conveys why so many Germans adored Hitler, connived with him or felt powerless to resist him.

Die breit angelegte Studie behandelt das Gesamtwerk des Bühnenbildners und Bayreuther Chefausstatters Emil Preetorius (1883-1973). Neben Umfeld und Positionierung zum Nationalsozialismus werden insbesondere die Wagner-Arbeiten für Berlin, Bayreuth (1931-42), München, Mailand und Wien analysiert. Der erfolgreiche Buchgestalter und Illustrator Emil Preetorius entwickelte sich dank einer Empfehlung Thomas Manns mit Arbeiten für München, Berlin, Bayreuth, Amsterdam, London, Mailand und Wien zu einem der führenden Bühnenbildner seiner Zeit. Von Siegfried und Winifred Wagner zur szenischen Erneuerung nach Bayreuth berufen, schuf er auf der Grundlage eines tradierten Kunstverständnisses ein 'Neubayreuth der 1930er-Jahre', das, weithin als vorbildhaft rezipiert, den Weg zur Bühne Wieland und Wolfgang Wagners bahnte. Detailliert sind die Ausstattungen insbesondere von Werken Wagners, aber auch von Gluck, Mozart, Beethoven, Strauss u.a. von 1921 bis 1960 analysiert. Einen eigenen Schwerpunkt bildet das Kapitel zum Nationalsozialismus.

Magistrale Hitlerbiografie Het beste standaardwerk over een van de hoofdrolspelers van de twintigste eeuw. Hoe kon een zo onbeduidende persoonlijkheid het Duitse volk zo volkomen in zijn greep krijgen? Ian Kershaw onderzoekt in dit eerste deel van zijn Hitlerbiografie Hitlers persoonlijke achtergronden en weet daarbij hardnekkige mythen te ontmaskeren. Hitler kreeg de macht door nationale en internationale tegenspelers in de schoot geworpen en de door de Eerste Wereldoorlog getraumatiseerde Duitse samenleving klampte zich aan Hitler vast als ‘redder des vaderlands’. ‘Ian Kershaw heeft met zijn synthese van al het Hitleronderzoek een boek geschreven waar niemand omheen kan.’ de Volkskrant ‘Een synthese en verwerking van veel recent onderzoek, een nieuwe interpretatie van Hitlers leven en werken.’ NRC Handelsblad Ian Kershaw (1943) is hoogleraar moderne geschiedenis aan de universiteit van Sheffield en geldt als een van ’s werelds meest prominente onderzoekers van nazi-Duitsland.
