Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Experiences in German Gaols German tour in August, 1914. Up to the beginning of July, a party of five was expected, but several accidents ultimately reduced the number to two. It was a gleat disappointment at first that the party had been reduced to such small proportions, but subsequent events almost made one feel that the reduction of the party was providential, for two of the youths who fell out during July were seventeen years of age, and had they joined us, they would not have been released, but would have been interned in the camp at Ruhleben near Berlin, and their detention in Germany would have necessitated my own, for I should not have returned home without them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Outwitting the Hun: My Escape From a German Prison Camp Of every one who befriended me. I hope particularly that every good Hollander who played the part of the Good Samaritan to me so bountifully after my escape from Belgium will see these pages and feel that I am absolutely sincere when I say that words cannot begin to express my sense of gratitude to the Dutch people. It is needless for me to add how deeply I feel for my fellow-prisoners in Germany who were less fortunate than I. Poor, poor fellows - they are the real victims Of the war. I hope that every one Of them may soon be restored to that freedom whose value I never fully realized until after I had had to fight so hard to regain it.

Book Synopsis Inside the Third Reich by : Albert Speer
Download or read book Inside the Third Reich written by Albert Speer and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 832 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'INSIDE THE THIRD REICH is not only the most significant personal German account to come out of the war but the most revealing document on the Hitler phenomenon yet written. It takes the reader inside Nazi Germany on four different levels: Hitler's inner circle, National Socialism as a whole, the area of wartime production and the inner struggle of Albert Speer. The author does not try to make excuses, even by implication, and is unrelenting toward himself and his associates... Speer's full-length portrait of Hitler has unnerving reality. The Fuhrer emerges as neither an incompetent nor a carpet-gnawing madman but as an evil genius of warped conceits endowed with an ineffable personal magic' NEW YORK TIMES

Book Synopsis Translating the World by : Birgit Tautz
Download or read book Translating the World written by Birgit Tautz and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2017-12-07 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Translating the World, Birgit Tautz provides a new narrative of German literary history in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Departing from dominant modes of thought regarding the nexus of literary and national imagination, she examines this intersection through the lens of Germany’s emerging global networks and how they were rendered in two very different German cities: Hamburg and Weimar. German literary history has tended to employ a conceptual framework that emphasizes the nation or idealized citizenry, yet the experiences of readers in eighteenth-century German cities existed within the context of their local environments, in which daily life occurred and writers such as Lessing, Schiller, and Goethe worked. Hamburg, a flourishing literary city in the late eighteenth century, was eventually relegated to the margins of German historiography, while Weimar, then a small town with an insular worldview, would become mythologized for not only its literary history but its centrality in national German culture. By interrogating the histories of and texts associated with these cities, Tautz shows how literary styles and genres are born of local, rather than national, interaction with the world. Her examination of how texts intersect and interact reveals how they shape and transform the urban cultural landscape as they are translated and move throughout the world. A fresh, elegant exploration of literary translation, discursive shifts, and global cultural changes, Translating the World is an exciting new story of eighteenth-century German culture and its relationship to expanding global networks that will especially interest scholars of comparative literature, German studies, and literary history.

Book Synopsis The German-American Encounter by : Frank Trommler
Download or read book The German-American Encounter written by Frank Trommler and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2001 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Germans, the largest immigration group in the United States, contributed to the shaping of American society and left their mark on many areas from religion and education to food, farming, political and intellectual life, Americans have been instrumental in shaping German democracy after World War II. Both sides can claim to be part of each other's history, and yet the question arises whether this claim indicates more than a historical interlude in the forming of the Atlantic civilization. In this volume some of the leading historians, social scientists and literary scholars from both sides of the Atlantic have come together to investigate, for the first time in a broad interdisciplinary collaboration, the nexus of these interactions in view of current and future challenges to German-American relations.
Book Synopsis The Experience of the Foreign by : Antoine Berman
Download or read book The Experience of the Foreign written by Antoine Berman and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is the first authoritative analysis of the theory of translation in German Romanticism. In a systematic study of Herder, Goethe, Schlegel, Novalis, Humboldt, Schleiermacher, and Hölderlin, Berman demonstrates the importance of the theory of translation for an understanding of German romantic culture, arguing that never before has the concept of translation been meditated in such detail and such depth. Indeed, fundamental questions that arise again today, such as the question concerning the proper versus the literal, of the Other to a given culture, the essence of the work of art, and of language, all these issues, and many more, are shown to have been premeditated in a most important manner by these German Romantics.

Book Synopsis Ordinary Germans in Extraordinary Times by : Andrew Stuart Bergerson
Download or read book Ordinary Germans in Extraordinary Times written by Andrew Stuart Bergerson and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2004-10-14 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hildesheim is a mid-sized provincial town in northwest Germany. Ordinary Germans in Extraordinary Times is a carefully drawn account of how townspeople went about their lives and reacted to events during the Nazi era. Andrew Stuart Bergerson argues that ordinary Germans did in fact make Germany and Europe more fascist, more racist, and more modern during the 1930s, but they disguised their involvement behind a pre-existing veil of normalcy. Bergerson details a way of being, believing, and behaving by which "ordinary Germans" imagined their powerlessness and absence of responsibility even as they collaborated in the Nazi revolution. He builds his story on research that includes anecdotes of everyday life collected systematically from newspapers, literature, photography, personal documents, public records, and especially extensive interviews with a representative sample of residents born between 1900 and 1930. The book considers the actual customs and experiences of friendship and neighborliness in a German town before, during, and after the Third Reich. By analyzing the customs of conviviality in interwar Hildesheim, and the culture of normalcy these customs invoked, Bergerson aims to help us better understand how ordinary Germans transformed "neighbors" into "Jews" or "Aryans."
Book Synopsis Battle for the Ruhr by : Derek S. Zumbro
Download or read book Battle for the Ruhr written by Derek S. Zumbro and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Derek Zumbro chronicles this key military campaign from a unique and fresh perspective - that of the defeated German soldiers and civilians caught in the final maelstrom of the war's western front." "Zumbro chronicles the relentless assault on the Ruhr Pocket through German eyes, as the Allied juggernaut battered the region's cities, villages, and homes into submission. He tells of children pressed into service by a desperate Nazi regime - and of even more desperate parents trying to save their sons from sacrifice at the eleventh hour. He also tells of unspeakable conditions suffered by foreign laborers, POWs, and political opponents in the Ruhr Valley and of the mass graves that gave Allied soldiers a grisly new understanding of their enemy." "Zumbro also recounts the story of Field Marshal Walter Model's final hours. His eventual suicide effectively ended the existence of the Wehrmacht's once-formidable Army Group B after being pursued, methodically encircled, and finally destroyed by U.S. and British forces. Through interviews with surviving members of Model's former staff, Zumbro has uncovered the attitudes of beleaguered officers that official records could never convey." "Other interviews with former soldiers reveal the extent to which Allied bombing contributed to the rapid deterioration of German combat effectiveness and tell of civilians begging soldiers to abandon the war. Zumbro's research reveals the identities of specific characters discussed in previous works but never identified, describes the final hours of German officers executed for the loss of the bridge at Remagen, and offers new insight into Model's acquiescence to Hitler in military affairs."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book Materials for German Conversation written by Bert John Vos and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Materials for German Conversation: With Notes and Vocabulary In selecting stories that were to form the basis of con versation between teacher and pupil, it was felt that they should in the first place be interesting in themselves. They should also readily lend themselves to reproduction on the part of the pupil, and the vocabulary should be representa tive of the real - the pupil's own - world, rather than that of thought and feeling. These considerations have determined both the character of the selections and their individual treatment. Description and all detailed setting have therefore been eliminated in favor of action and in cident. The editor has also aimed at introducing the pupil to only a limited German vocabulary. In accordance with this principle important words and phrases once used, have been repeated in subsequent selections, as well as in different portions of the same selection. Intensiveness, not extensiveness of knowledge has been the goal. Only by such steps can the pupil gain a sure footing and develop an accurate feeling for a foreign language. The questions appended to each story do not lay claim to exhaustiveness. They have been so framed that the answers can be constructed by the student without aid. Other than that derived from text, notes and vocabulary. While the later selections are covered somewhat less fully.
