Farewell to the World of Hitler and His Library -- Selected Bibliography -- Name IndexThe first book to present the so-called Hitler Library. It sheds new light on the readings of Hitler and on his techniques how to read a book. Hitler presented himself as an ideal reader of Schopenhauer, nevertheless his remarks destroy that image, particularly if we see how he read Ernst Jünger, Richard Wagner, or Paul de Lagarde, and how he reread Mein Kampf.The book describes the gnostic character of the phenomenon as an explication of the success of nazism and that of the Hitler myth and challenges the static views of traditional historiography.HISTORY / Military / World War IIbisacshGermanyHistory1933-1945Electronic books.20th century, Books and reading, Cultural studies, Germany, History, World War II.HISTORY / Military / World War II.943.086/092Miskolczy Ambrus1019792MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996248335703316Hitler's library2406362UNISA
