  • Grimm, Kolbenheyer Und Stapel in Ihrem Verhältnis Zur NSDAP
    5. Große Erwartungen und bittere Enttäuschung: Grimm, Kolbenheyer und Stapel in ihrem Verhältnis zur NSDAP 5.1 Frühe Unterstützung und erste Fühlungnahme 1923–1930/31 Ich würde es nicht begrüßen, wenn der Radika- lismus in unveränderter Form Oberhand auf lange Dauer erhielte, aber wenn der National- sozialismus nicht gekommen wäre, man hätte ihn erfinden müssen.1 Schon sehr früh nach dem Zusammenbruch des „Dritten Reichs“ hat Veit Valen- tin hellsichtig hervorgehoben, wie weitgehend die Geschichte des Nationalsozia- lismus und seines Aufstiegs als eine „Geschichte seiner Unterschätzung“2 verstan- den werden kann. Speziell zur Erklärung der illusorischen Zähmungskonzeptio- nen3 seitens der Eliten des politischen Konservatismus ist das Interpretament der „Unterschätzung“ fraglos von zentraler Bedeutung. Im Falle von Grimm, Kolben- heyer und Stapel würde hinsichtlich ihres Verhältnisses zur NSDAP vor 1933 ein allein auf „Unterschätzung“ abzielender analytischer Zugriff indes deutlich zu kurz greifen. Gewiss: Auch sie perzipierten die NS-Bewegung mitunter leichtfer- tig als eine vermeintlich rein episodenhafte Erscheinung, die kurzfristig für eigene Zwecke instrumentalisiert werden könnte und sollte.4 Eine erschöpfende Erläute- rung ihrer Einstellungen ist damit jedoch keineswegs gewonnen. Ihre Wahrneh- mung der NS-Bewegung war weder konstant, noch blieb sie ohne Ambivalenzen, wie ein Blick in die Quellen rasch lehrt. Die Annahme, Grimm, Kolbenheyer und Stapel wären sich in dem hier interessierenden Zeitfenster stets sicher gewesen, wie sie sich zum Nationalsozialismus stellen sollten und wie dieser als politische und soziale Bewegung einzuschätzen sei, wäre irrig und ginge an der empirischen Realität vorbei. Vielmehr lässt sich eine spannungs- und widerspruchsvolle Gleichzeitigkeit von Wohlwollen und Skepsis, Hoffnung und Verunsicherung, 1 KAG, Erwin Guido Kolbenheyer an Jakob Schaffner, 25.

    In: Feuchtwanger Studies, Vol. 6 Feuchtwanger and Judaism, History, Imagination, Exile Paul Lerner and Frank Stern (eds) (Oxford: Peter Lang, 2019) Adrian Feuchtwanger Caught Between Cultures: Lion Feuchtwanger's Flavius Josephus Lion Feuchtwanger's 1932 novel Der jüdische Krieg portrays Flavius Josephus as a young man caught between the conflicting cultures of Rome and Jerusalem and forced to make difficult choices. The novel also makes an implicit comment on the precarious position of European Jews in the early 1930s. This article outlines the principal elements and themes of the novel, and places it in the context of other German literary works of the period, in particular Hanns Johst’s proto-Nazi play Schlageter. Principal elements of the novel Over the centuries, Christians and Jews have held conflicting views of Flavius Josephus. The former considered his writings, with their accounts of early Christianity, to be near-canonical; the latter refused to read his histories and remembered him merely as the traitor who defected to the Romans in the First Jewish War—the uprising which led to the fall of Jerusalem, with all its associated symbolism for the Jewish diaspora.1 Lion Feuchtwanger, as a pacifist, anti-chauvinist commentator writing during the Weimar Republic, took a more agnostic view: in his version of the Josephus story, archetypal Jewish dilemmas are played out, and the novel as a whole makes an indirect comment on the situation of European Jews in 1932. The reader first encounters Joseph ben Matthias (Josephus's original name) seeking an amnesty for three fellow Judeans unjustly imprisoned by the Romans for stirring up unrest.

Steinweis ETWEEN 1928 and 1932, the National Socialist movement trans- formed itself from an insurgent fringe party into Germany's most B potent political force. The most important factor in this dramatic turnabout in political fortunes was the rapid deterioration of the German economy beginning in 1929. It does not, however, logically follow that the German people simply fell into the lap of the party and its charismatic leader. To the contrary, the party aggressively employed sophisticated propagandistic and organizational strategies for attracting and mobilizing diverse segments of German society.

  • FRENCH and AMERICAN CULTURAL OCCUPATION POLICIES and GERMAN EXPECTATIONS, 1945-1949 a Dissertation
    NEGOTIATING DIFFERENCE: FRENCH AND AMERICAN CULTURAL OCCUPATION POLICIES AND GERMAN EXPECTATIONS, 1945-1949 A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History By Corey J. Campion, M.A. Washington, DC September 29, 2010 Copyright 2010 by Corey J. Campion All Rights Reserved ii NEGOTIATING DIFFERENCE: FRENCH AND AMERICAN CULTURAL OCCUPATION POLICIES AND GERMAN EXPECTATIONS, 1945-1949 Corey J. Campion, M.A. Thesis Advisor: Roger Chickering, Ph.D. ABSTRACT The dissertation explores the local implementation of French and American cultural occupation policies in Germany from 1945-1949. It focuses on events in French-occupied Freiburg and American-occupied Stuttgart and relies on materials gathered in local and state German archives as well as the French and American national archives. The dissertation argues that postwar German culture developed not through the unilateral implementation of Allied policies, but rather through negotiations between Allied and German visions. In Freiburg and Stuttgart negotiations over the purpose and character of postwar cultural activities reflected a broader debate over what 1945 meant for the future of German society. To varying degrees, French and American officials viewed the Reich’s collapse as an invitation to rebuild Germany along the lines of their own “superior” political and cultural traditions. By contrast, German officials looked to rebuild along native lines and, in the wake of what they described as unwelcome Nazi political and cultural “experiments,” greeted Allied reeducation efforts with a combination of frustration and suspicion. Thus, while the Allies shared with their Germans general democratic, capitalist, and Christian values, they struggled to win support for their specific reforms.

The thing is about long journeys is that you end up meeting a lot of people on the road who not only transform it but also have a significant impact on the project. First of all, I wish to address my gratitude for the patience and constructive comments that my director, André Lecours, has always had for me as I struggled to find my direction. I am indebted to the encouraging emails and Skype conversations we had that helped keep my enthusiasm for the project. I also wish to thank Daniel Stockemer for reading my multiple drafts. His comments and ideas have always been important roads of guidance. I thank my friends who have listened to me as I bounced out ideas and who have provided me with intellectual support. I also wish to give my deep thanks to my parents who have supported me throughout this project. There were many late calls and editing support that was fundamental to me. Finally, I am greatly indebted to my amazing husband, Rafael who has constantly been my rock in so many different ways throughout this very long journey. I dedicate this thesis to you and our equally amazing children, René, Gabriel and Sophie, whose presence always reminded me of life outside academia and to keep laughing.

  • Völkisch Writers and National Socialism
    CULTURAL HISTORY AND LITERARY IMAGINATION This book provides a view of literary life under the Nazis, highlighting • Guy Tourlamain the ambiguities, rivalries and conflicts that determined the cultural climate of that period and beyond. Focusing on a group of writers – in particular, Hans Grimm, Erwin Guido Kolbenheyer, Wilhelm Schäfer, Emil Strauß, Börries Freiherr von Münchhausen and Rudolf Binding – it examines the continuities in völkisch-nationalist thought in Germany from c.1890 into the post-war period and the ways in which völkisch-nationalists identified themselves in opposition to four successive German regimes: the Kaiserreich, the Weimar Republic, the Third Reich and the Federal Republic. Although their work Völkisch predated Hitler’s National Socialist movement, their contribution to preparing the cultural climate for the rise of Nazism ensured them continued prominence in the Third Reich. Those who survived into the post-war era continued to represent the völkisch-nationalist worldview in the West German public sphere, opposing both Socialism and National Writers the Soviet and liberal-democratic models for Germany’s future.
