Mothers in the Fatherland
Author: Claudia Koonz
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136213805
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 600
Book Description
From extensive research, including a remarkable interview with the unrepentant chief of Hitler’s Women’s Bureau, this book traces the roles played by women – as followers, victims and resisters – in the rise of Nazism. Originally publishing in 1987, it is an important contribution to the understanding of women’s status, culpability, resistance and victimisation at all levels of German society, and a record of astonishing ironies and paradoxical morality, of compromise and courage, of submission and survival.

On Behalf of the Emperor, On Behalf of the Fatherland
Author: Jussi Jalonen
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004303766
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 371
Book Description
Jussi Jalonen’s On Behalf of the Emperor, On Behalf of the Fatherland approaches the Russian suppression of the Polish Uprising in 1830-1831 from a new transnational perspective. The Russian mobilization involved people from the farthest reaches of the Empire, and one notable group was the Finnish Battalion of the Imperial Guard. For the Finnish elites, the war was a demonstration of loyalty to the Tsar, and the service of young Finnish gentlemen in the Russian Guards produced a sense of militarized patriotism. Relying on a rich variety of original sources, this study places the campaign in Poland in the context of the development of Finnish national awareness, providing a unique portrayal of 19th century war experience and nationalism.

The Fatherland and the Jews
Author: Alfred Wiener
Publisher: Granta Books
ISBN: 1783786221
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 119
Book Description
Two works examining antisemitism and the scapegoating of minorities by the founder of the world’s oldest institution dedicated to studying the Holocaust. The inaugural title in a collaboration between the Wiener Library and Granta Books. These two pamphlets, “Prelude to Pogroms? Facts for the Thoughtful” and “German Judaism in Political, Economic and Cultural Terms” mark the first time that Alfred Wiener, the founder of the Wiener Holocaust Library, has been published in English. Together they offer a vital insight into the antisemitic onslaught Germany’s Jews were subjected to as the Nazi Party rose to power, and introduce a sharp and sympathetic thinker and speaker to a contemporary audience. Tackling issues such as the planned rise of antisemitism and the scapegoating of minorities, these pamphlets speak as urgently to the contemporary moment as they provide a window on to the past.
