Based on a lifetime living in and reporting on Germany and Central Europe, award-winning journalist and author Peter Millar tackles the fascinating and complex story of the people at the heart of our continent. Focussing on nine cities (only six of which are in the Germany of today), he takes us on a zigzag ride back through time via the fall of the Berlin Wall through the horrors of two world wars and the patchwork states of the Middle Ages to the splendour of Charlemagne and the fall of Rome.

This book is the culmination of more than three decades of meticulous historiographic research on Nazi Germany by one of the period’s most distinguished historians. The volume brings together the most important and influential aspects of Ian Kershaw’s research on the Holocaust for the first time. The writings are arranged in three sections - Hitler and the Final Solution, popular opinion and the Jews in Nazi Germany, and the Final Solution in historiography - and Kershaw provides an introduction and a closing section on the uniqueness of Nazism.

Hailed as the most compelling biography of the German dictator yet written, Ian Kershaw's Hitler brings us closer than ever before to the heart of its subject's immense darkness. From his illegitimate birth in a small Austrian village to his fiery death in a bunker under the Reich chancellery in Berlin, Adolf Hitler left a murky trail, strewn with contradictory tales and overgrown with self-created myths. One truth prevails: the sheer scale of the evils that he unleashed on the world has made him a demonic figure without equal in the 20th century.

В 1933 г. Адольф Гитлер стал рейхсканцлером Германии. Спустя год все партии, кроме нацистской, были запрещены, свобода прессы осталась лишь воспоминанием, а власть Гитлера, как казалось, стала абсолютной. Однако уже в скором времени возникло немецкое Сопротивление. Группы заговорщиков, в которые входили военные, школьные учителя, политики, дипломаты, богословы и даже плотник, снова и снова пытались положить конец кровавому правлению фюрера.

10 maggio 1933. A Bebelplatz, nel centro di Berlino, allo scoccare della mezzanotte migliaia di libri vengono dati alle fiamme. Joseph Goebbels proclama: «L'uomo tedesco del futuro non sarà più un uomo fatto di libri, ma un uomo di carattere». Su tutta l'Europa si sparge un odore di benzina e di cenere. 24 febbraio 2022. La Russia invade l'Ucraina, e di lì a qualche mese un nuovo conflitto devasterà la striscia di Gaza.

The classic history of the political and economic devastation wrought by runaway inflation in Weimar Germany—“brilliant” (Guardian) In 1923, with its currency effectively worthless (the exchange rate in December of that year was one dollar to 4,200,000,000,000 marks), the German republic...

Der Alchemist von der Pfaueninsel. Das neue Buch des Bestseller-Autors und "großen Geschichtenerzählers" (Süddeutsche Zeitung) Tauchen wir ein in die großen Träume eines großen Mannes: Johannes Kunckel ist ein Magier und Alchemist, der daran glaubt, Gold zaubern zu können. Der preußische König schenkt ihm deshalb die Pfaueninsel zwischen Potsdam und Berlin, damit er im Geheimen in seiner Zauberwerkstatt aus dem Feuer eine neue Welt erschaffen kann. Aus seinem Ofen entsteigt am Ende ein Glas, wie es zuvor kein Menschenauge je gesehen hatte: rot wie ein Rubin.

For nearly a century, historians have depicted Germany as a rabidly nationalist land, born in a sea of aggression. Not so, says Helmut Walser Smith, who, in this groundbreaking 500-year history, challenges traditional perceptions of Germany's conflicted past, revealing a nation far more thematically complicated than 20th-century historians have imagined. 

American journalist and author William L. Shirer was a war correspondent for six years in Nazi Germany, having a front-row seat to Hitler’s rise in influence and power. His most definitive work on the subject, The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, is a riveting account of life in the tyrannical state, a country transformed by war and dictatorship. The author was originally commissioned to write The Rise and Fall of Adolf Hitler for a young adult audience. This account loses none of the immediacy of The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich....

Die Jahre 1919 bis 1929 markieren eine Epoche unvergleichlicher geistiger Kreativität, in der Gedanken zum ersten Mal gedacht wurden, ohne die das Leben und Denken in unserer Gegenwart nicht dasselbe wäre. Die großen Philosophen Ludwig Wittgenstein, Walter Benjamin, Ernst Cassirer und Martin Heidegger prägten diese Epoche und ließen die deutsche Sprache ein letztes Mal vor der Katastrophe des Zweiten Weltkriegs zur Sprache des Geistes werden.

In The Third Reich: A History of Nazi Germany, Thomas Childers shows how the young Hitler became passionately political and anti-Semitic as he lived on the margins of society. Fueled by outrage at the punitive terms imposed on Germany by the Versailles Treaty, he found his voice and drew a loyal following.

Culture was integral to the smooth running of the Third Reich. In the years preceding WWII, a wide variety of artistic forms were used to instill a Nazi ideology in the German people and to manipulate the public perception of Hitler's enemies. During the war, the arts were closely tied to the propaganda machine that promoted the cause of Germany's military campaigns.

At the close of World War I, Hitler was an impoverished young artist who scrapped by through selling souvenir paintings, but within a few years, his powerful oratory brought him to the forefront of the Nazi party in Munich and helped make the party much more popular. A smattering of followers in the hundreds quickly became a party of thousands. At the head of it all was a man whose fiery orations denounced Jews, communists, and other "traitors" for bringing upon the German nation the Treaty of Versailles, which had led to hyperinflation and a wrecked economy.

This masterful biography by one of Germany’s best known journalists was the leading nonfiction best seller in Germany. Fest shows Hitler as the receptacle of the dreads and resentments of a shaken social order, gifted with an uncanny instinct for all that was hollow behind the appearance of power, at home and abroad. Though a warped human being, he was neither clown nor puppet, as many liked to think; Hitler appears here as an enormously astute politician, impressing and hypnotizing Germans and foreigners alike with the scope of his projects and the theatricality of their presentation. Fest uncovers in Hitler a constantly destructive personality....

Rundfunk, der Geschichte machte. Dass der Kampf gegen Hitler-Deutschland nicht nur mutig war, sondern oft auch große Unterhaltung, ist hier erstmals in Reden, Liedern, Hörspielen und Kabarettsendungen zu hören, mit denen viele Schriftsteller und Künstler Widerstand leisteten. Die Grußsendungen mit deutschen Kriegsgefangenen waren so beliebt, dass sie tagsüber ausgestrahlt wurden und die Hörer hohe Zuchthausstrafen oder sogar ihr Leben riskierten.

Eva Braun era una giovane donna di Monaco che proveniva da una famiglia borghese come molte altre. L'incontro con Adolf Hitler, l'uomo più potente della Germania nazista, condizionò la sua esistenza e tutte e sue scelte. Eva nutrì per il Fuhrer un amore incondizionato, nonostante lui la tenesse lontana da Berlino e dalla sua vita politica e si rifiutasse di prenderla in moglie o anche solo di mostrarsi pubblicamente insieme a lei.

After Germany's humiliating World War II defeat, numerous German generals published memoirs claiming that their country's brilliant military leadership had been undermined by the Führer's erratic decision making. The author of three highly acclaimed books on the era, Stephen Fritz upends this characterization of Hitler as an ill-informed fantasist and demonstrates the ways in which his strategy was coherent and even competent.
