The book gives a systematic reconstruction of Hitler's use of theological concepts like providence, belief or the almighty God. Rainer Bucher argues that Hitler's (ab)use of theological ideas is one of the main reasons why and how Hitler gained so much acquiescence and support for his diabolic enterprise. This fascinating study concludes by contextualizing Hitler's theology in terms of a wider theory of modernity and in particular by analyzing the churches' struggle with modernity. Finally, the author evaluates the use of theology from a practical theological perspective. This book will be of interest to students of Religious Studies, Theology, Holocaust Studies, Jewish Studies, Religion and Politics, and German History."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aContinuum resources in religion and political culture. 606 $2Religion & politics 608 $aElectronic books. 676 $a943.086092 700 $aBucher$b Rainer$f1956-$0981123 702 $aPohl$b Rebecca 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456800503321 996 $aHitler's theology$92239340 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04531nam 2200685 a 450 001 9910458008603321 005 20210616202927.0 010 $a1-283-53982-9 010 $a9786613852274 010 $a1-4008-2009-X 024 7 $a10.1515/9781400820092 035 $a(CKB)1000000000396619 035 $a(EBL)923405 035 $a(OCoLC)845245478 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000083902 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11112453 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000083902 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10163454 035 $a(PQKB)11186322 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC923405 035 $a(OCoLC)57138879 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse36376 035 $a(DE-B1597)447734 035 $a(OCoLC)979578364 035 $a(OCoLC)984688454 035 $a(DE-B1597)9781400820092 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL923405 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10561985 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL385227 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000396619 100 $a20790917d1980 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurnn#---|u||u 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aBureaucratic reform in the Ottoman Empire$b[electronic resource] $ethe Sublime Porte, 1789-1922 /$fCarter V.

Yet there must also be few Western minds that now know what this term refers to, or why it has any claim to attention. One present-day Middle East expert admits to having long interpreted the expression as a reference to Istambul's splendid natural harbor. This individual is probably not unique and could perhaps claim to be relatively well informed. When the Sublime Porte still existed, Westerners who spent time in Istanbul knew the term as a designation for the Ottoman government, but few knew why the name was used, or what aspect of the Ottoman government it properly designated. What was the real Sublime Porte? Was it an organization? A building? No more, literally, than a door or gateway? What about it was important enough to cause the name to be remembered?In one sense, the purpose of this book is to answer these questions. Of course, it will also do much more and will, in the process, move quickly onto a plane quite different from the exoticism just invoked. For to study the bureaucratic complex properly known as the Sublime Porte, and to analyze its evolution and that of the body of men who staffed it, is to explore a problem of tremendous significance for the development of the administrative institutions of the Ottoman Empire, the Islamic lands in general, and in some senses the entire non-Westerrn world. 410 0$aPrinceton studies on the Near East. 606 $aBureaucracy$zTurkey 607 $aTurkey$xPolitics and government$y19th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aBureaucracy 676 $a354/.561/01 700 $aFindley$b Carter V.$f1941-$0637519 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458008603321 996 $aBureaucratic reform in the Ottoman Empire$91190778 997 $aUNINA
