Böcker av George L. Mosse

The culmination of George L. Mosse's groundbreaking work on fascism from its origins through the twentieth century, with a new critical introduction by historian Roger Griffin. The volume covers a broad spectrum of topics related to cultural interpretations of fascism as a means to define and understand it as a popular phenomenon on its own terms.

This new edition revisits the renowned historian George L. Mosse's landmark work exploring the ideological foundations of Nazism in Germany. First published in 1964, this volume was among the first to examine the intellectual origins of the Third Reich.

Originally published in 1978, Toward the Final Solution was one of the first in-depth studies of the evolution of racism in Europe, from the Age of Enlightenment through the Holocaust and Hitler's Final Solution.

Just two weeks before his death in January 1999, George L. Mosse, one of the great American historians, finished writing his memoir, a fascinating account of a remarkable life that spanned three continents and many of the major events of the twentieth century. Confronting History is guided in part by his belief that "what man is, only history tells” and, most of all, by the importance of finding one's self through the pursuit of truth and through an honest and unflinching analysis of one's place in the context of the times.

This extensive analysis of Nazi culture contains selections from newspapers, novellas, plays and diaries as well as the public pronouncements of Nazi leaders, churchmen and professors. It describes national Socialism in practice and explores what it meant for the average German.
