Eva Braun Hitler's Odontological Identification-A Forensic Enigma?
J Forensic Sci, Apr. 1974, Vol. 19, No. 2 R. F. Sognnaes, ~ M.A., M.S., D.M.D., Ph.D. Eva Braun Hitler's Odontological Identification-A Forensic Enigma? Through generous cooperation by custodians of several museums, libraries, and govern- ment archive centers, the author has had occasion to explore various historical dental relics and reports covering the evolution of dental art and science over a period ranging from the time of George Washington to that of Adolf Hitler [1,2]. When the Berlin dentist, Dr. Hugo Johannes Blaschke, who cared for Germany's wartime leaders, was captured and interrogated by American army officers in 1945, he prepared descriptions and diagrams of the dental condition of Adolf Hitler, as well as of Martin Bormann and of Eva Braun, Hitler's longtime female companion whom he married just before the end of the war. By comparing American and Soviet reports it has been shown elsewhere that data attributed to a 1945 Russian autopsy report cited in 1968 by Bezymenski [3-5] are in harmony with Hitler's 1944 head and jaw X-rays which, after much search and research, were located through the cooperation of the Captured Record Branch of the U.S. Na- tional Archives and Records Service [2]. This discovery was followed by a detailed comparison with other dental data, as reported at the 6th International Conference on Forensic Sciences in Edinburgh in 1972 and subsequently published in early 1973 by Sognnaes and Str6m [6]. Similarly, the dental data elicited regarding Martin Bormann's dental condition, based on dental diagrams prepared by Dr. -

Starring Hitler! Adolf Hitler as the Main Character in Twentieth-First Century French Fiction Abstract Adolf Hitler has remained a prominent figure in popular culture, often portrayed as either the personification of evil or as an object of comedic ridicule. Although Hitler has never belonged solely to history books, testimonials, or documentaries, he has recently received a great deal of attention in French literary fiction. This article reviews three recent French novels by established authors: La part de l’autre (The Alternate Hypothesis) by Emmanuel Schmitt, Lui (Him) by Patrick Besson and La jeunesse mélancolique et très désabusée d’Adolf Hitler (Adolf Hitler’s Depressed and Very Disillusioned Youth) by Michel Folco; all of which belong to the Twenty-First Century French literary trend of focusing on Second World War perpetrators instead of their victims. -

Operation Valkyrie
Operation Valkyrie Rastenburg, 20th July 1944 Claus Philipp Maria Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg (Jettingen- Scheppach, 15th November 1907 – Berlin, 21st July 1944) was a German army officer known as one of the leading officers who planned the 20th July 1944 bombing of Hitler’s military headquarters and the resultant attempted coup. As Bryan Singer’s film “Valkyrie”, starring Tom Cruise as the German officer von Stauffenberg, will be released by the end of December, SCALA is glad to present you the story of the 20 July plot through the historical photographs of its German collections.

B007663 3 Although he never joined the Nazi party, Claus von Stauffenberg fought in Africa during the Second World War as First Officer. After the explosion of a mine on 7th March 1943, von Stauffenberg lost his right hand, the left eye and two fingers of the left hand. Notwithstanding his disablement, he kept working for the army even if his anti-Nazi believes were getting firmer day by day. In fact he had realized that the 3rd Reich was leading Germany into an abyss from which it would have hardly risen. There was no time to lose, they needed to do something immediately or their country would have been devastated.

American Intelligence and the Question of Hitler's Death
American Intelligence and the Question of Hitler’s Death Undergraduate Research Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with honors research distinction in History in the Undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University by Kelsey Mullen The Ohio State University November 2014 Project Advisor: Professor Alice Conklin, Department of History Project Mentor: Doctoral Candidate Sarah K. Douglas, Department of History American Intelligence and the Question of Hitler’s Death 2 Introduction The fall of Berlin marked the end of the European theatre of the Second World War. The Red Army ravaged the city and laid much of it to waste in the early days of May 1945. A large portion of Hitler’s inner circle, including the Führer himself, had been holed up in the Führerbunker underneath the old Reich Chancellery garden since January of 1945. Many top Nazi Party officials fled or attempted to flee the city ruins in the final moments before their destruction at the Russians’ hands. When the dust settled, the German army’s capitulation was complete. There were many unanswered questions for the Allies of World War II following the Nazi surrender. Invading Russian troops, despite recovering Hitler’s body, failed to disclose this fact to their Allies when the battle ended. In September of 1945, Dick White, the head of counter intelligence in the British zone of occupation, assigned a young scholar named Hugh Trevor- Roper to conduct an investigation into Hitler’s last days in order to refute the idea the Russians promoted and perpetuated that the Führer had escaped.1 Major Trevor-Roper began his investigation on September 18, 1945 and presented his conclusions to the international press on November 1, 1945. -
Avner Less (1916-1987): Das Verhör Von Adolf Eichmann
Newsletter 37 +++ Februar 2013 Haus der Wannsee-Konferenz Gedenkveranstaltung anlässlich des 71. Jahrestages der Wannsee-Konferenz von 1942 am 19. Januar 2013 im ver.di-Bildungszentrum Clara Sahlberg, Berlin-Wannsee *) Avner Less (1916-1987): Das Verhör von Adolf Eichmann Bettina Stangneth und Alon Less im Gespräch mit Norbert Kampe Norbert Kampe: Ich begrüße Sie herzlich anlässlich des heutigen Gedenktages zum 71. Jahrestag der Wannsee-Konferenz vom 20. Januar 1942. Ganz besonders begrüße ich heute unsere beiden Gäste. Frau Dr. Bettina Stangneth, Jahrgang 1966, hat in Hamburg Philosophie studiert und promovierte 1997 mit einer Arbeit über Immanuel Kant. Im Jahr 2000 verlieh ihr die Philosophisch-Politische Akademie den ersten Preis für ihre Arbeit zum Antijudaismus bei Kant. Ihr Buch »Eichmann vor Jerusalem« hat eine große Beachtung gefunden, es wurde mit dem NDR-Kultursachbuch-Preis 2011 ausgezeichnet. Es ist gerade eine niederländische Übersetzung erschienen, die englische Ausgabe erscheint demnächst. Gestützt auf akribische Archivrecherchen hat Frau Stangneth das Leben und die öffentliche Wirkung des Judenreferenten im Reichssicherheitshauptamt Adolf Eichmann bis zu seinem Prozess in Jerusalem 1961 in seinem Fluchtland Argentinien beschrieben. Seine Äußerungen in Argentinien im Kreise von Gesinnungsgenossen zeigen ihn als ungebrochenen, überzeugten Nationalsozialisten und Antisemiten, der stolz auf seine führende Rolle bei der Ermordung der europäischen Juden war. Im Kontrast zu Eichmanns Lügentheater als kleiner, etwas minder begabter subalterner Bürokrat, das er im Prozess in Jerusalem vorgespielt hat, hat Frau Stangneth ein einzigartiges Psychogramm dieses notorischen Lügners erarbeitet. Der Titel des Buches »Eichmann vor Jerusalem« ist natürlich eine Anspielung auf Hannah Arendts berühmtes Buch »Eichmann in Jerusalem«. Der gerade in deutschen Kinos angelaufene Film über Hannah Arendt hat gerade diese Lebensphase der Philosophin zum Thema. -

The Independent Producer: Michael Klinger and New Film History
RESEARCH ARTICLE Creativity and commerce: Michael Klinger and new film history Andrew Spicer* School of Creative Arts, University of the West of England, Bristol BS3 2JT, UK The crisis in film studies and history concerning their legitimacy and objectives has provoked a reinvigoration of scholarly energy in historical enquiry. „New film history‟ attempts to address the concerns of historians and film scholars by working self-reflexively with an expanded range of sources and a wider conception of „film‟ as a dynamic set of processes rather than a series of texts. The practice of new film history is here exemplified through a detailed case study of the independent British producer Michael Klinger (active 1961-1987) with a specific focus on his unsuccessful attempt to produce a war film, Green Beach, based on a memoir of the Dieppe raid (August 1942). This case study demonstrates the importance of analysing the producer‟s role in understanding the complexities of film-making, the continual struggle to balance the competing demands of creativity and commerce. In addition, its subject matter – an undercover raid and a Jewish hero – disturbed the dominant myths concerning the Second World War, creating what turned out to be intractable ideological as well as financial problems. The paper concludes that the concerns of film historians need to engage with broader cultural and social histories.
