9780224006170: Selected Writings (Roots of the Right S.)

Synopsis

Nazism had very few intellectual qualifications, but many pretensions. These were expressed in the writings of Alfred Rosenberg. His "Myth of the Twentieth Century" deeply influenced the language, daydreams and utopian slogans of the entire National Socialist movement. It projects - often in the style of vulgar but adroit rhetoric - the mad brew of racism, historical fantasy and apocalyptic prophecy which Nazism sought to inject into German and European consciousness. Rosenberg's writings, with their striking range of artistic, musical, sociological and political reference have, until now, been available only to specialists. Professor Pois, who is engaged on a biography of the 'Nazi philosopher', has selected and translated the most intense and influential of Rosenberg's texts with an introduction, linking commentary, notes and bibliography.
