The Tragedy of Bleiburg and Viktring, 1945
The atrocities and mass murders committed by Josip Broz Tito's Partisan units of the Yugoslav Army immediately after the Second World War had no place in the conscience of Socialist Yugoslavia. More than once, the annual Croatian commemoration of the Bleiburg victims was subject to attacks carried out by the socialist Yugoslav state. Abroad in the West, on Austrian soil, the Yugoslav secret service (UDBA) did not shy away from murdering the protagonist of the Croatian memory culture, Nicola Martinovic, as late as 1975. The official history was aligned with a firm interpretational paradigm that called for a glorification of the anti-fascist "people's liberation resistance." With the breakup o...

Creator of Nazi Death Camps
A key player in the annexation of Austria in 1938, Odilo Globocnik was made Gauleiter of Vienna for seven months until the Nazi party forced him to resign because of his abrasive manner, murky financial dealings, and blatant incompetence. Due to a close personal relationship with Heinrich Himmler, however, Globocnik was named to the seminal post of Lubin SS and Police Chief from 1939 to 1943, where he built and was in charge of some 150 camps, including the Majdanek camp and the killing centres of Belzec, Sobibor, and Treblinka.

"Ich bin maßlos in allem"
Aus Anlass des 50. Todestages: Das biographische Porträt der Dichterin und Erzählerin Christine Lavant. Auszüge aus ihrem Briefwechsel mit dem Geliebten Werner Berg machen den Band zu einer literarischen Sensation. Christine Lavants Eigenart und Stärke als Lyrikerin und als Erzählerin ist ihr unbestechlicher Blick auf diejenigen, mit denen das Schicksal es weniger gut gemeint hat. Es ist ihre eigene Welt, über die sie schreibt. So ist sie im Werk präsent, doch es fehlt eine Biographie. Aus Anlass des 50. Todestages erscheint nun ein biographisches Porträt der Dichterin mit literarischem Anspruch. Zwei Drittel der Texte in diesem Buch stammen von Christine Lavant selbst - und sind bis...
Between Occultism and Nazism
The relationship between Nazism and occultism has been an object of fascination and speculation for decades. Peter Staudenmaier’s Between Occultism and Nazism provides a detailed historical examination centered on the anthroposophist movement founded by Rudolf Steiner. Its surprising findings reveal a remarkable level of Nazi support for Waldorf schools, biodynamic farming, and other anthroposophist initiatives, even as Nazi officials attempted to suppress occult tendencies. The book also includes an analysis of anthroposophist involvement in the racial policies of Fascist Italy. Based on extensive archival research, this study offers rich material on controversial questions about the nature of esoteric spirituality and alternative cultural ideals and their political resonance.
