Nazi rejimi, kendileri için tehdit olarak değerlendirdikleri yayınları sansürlemiş, diğer yandan ülkedeki kütüphaneler üzerinde sıkı bir denetim uygulamıştır. Nazilerin, Almanya’daki yayıncılık üzerindeki etkisi, Alman Öğrenci Birliği’nin (Deutsche Studentenschaft, DSt) katılımında gerçekleşen kitap yakma (Bücher verbrennung) kampanyasıyla simgeleşmiştir. Nazilerin kitap yakma kampanyasında, zararlı olarak nitelendirilen veya Nazizm ideolojisine karşıt ideolojileri temsil eden kitaplar hedef alınmıştır. Nazizm ideolojisine karşıt yayınların ortadan kaldırılmasının yanında Nazizm ideolojisini yücelten ve fikirlerinin Alman toplumu tarafından benimsenmesini amaçlayan yayınlar da ortaya çıkmıştır. Bu yayınlar içerisinde Nazizm ideolojisinin antisemitist söylemlerinin yer aldığı kitaplar da olmuştur.

  • Modern White Women
    Women for Aryan Unity Presents SkuldModern White Women WAU Publications www.WAU14.com kuld is one of W.A.U’s many paperback publications, this maga- zine is one of a kind; it is dedicated 100% to Aryan Women S.The purpose behind Skuld is to honour Aryan Women past and Present. Being a woman is a very tough job. We are usually forced to mesh both warrior and mother into one. Many types of women past and present have made our roles in today’s society unique. We are labeled as many different things by many different kinds of men and women; one thing that cannot be denied is that we as women are both fierce and motherly all in one. Throughout history, war has been seen as a mans job; however women have always been involved in battles and sieges, not to mention duels, prizefights and so on. The most common occasion on which women would take part in battles was when their home was being attacked. A woman knew how to defend herself and her land. Proud women like Boudicca, Joan of Arc, Freydis Eriksdot- tir, Duchess Gaita of Lombardy, Countess Matilda Tuscany and many more. Women have conquered the skies, art, and medicine and much more. As we have been forced to believe that women before us were content with being shackled to the kitchen sink, Skuld will tell you differently. Each issue of Skuld will focus on many different types of Aryan Women, both historical and mythological.

  • CHAPTER 5 the Legend of Tokyo Rose1
    Miss Yourlovin Ann Elizabeth Pfau CHAPTER 5 The Legend of Tokyo Rose1 2 American veterans of the Pacific war still remember Tokyo Rose. She was the 1 most dangerous and seductive of the enemy radio announcers who broadcast propaganda to American troops. During the war, she attracted avid listeners who passed the time in the tropics by circulating stories about what she said and speculating about who she really was. After the Japanese defeat, former servicemen reminisced about Tokyo Rose, and when the U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) called for witnesses able to recognize her voice and to remember her words, many veterans eagerly volunteered their memories. In interviews conducted by FBI agents and in their own sworn statements, these men claimed to remember the peculiarities of her voice and delivery; they were certain that they could identify Tokyo Rose were they to hear her again. Many characterized her voice as "soft," "smooth," "sultry," or "sexy"; she spoke with a slight accent, or they were amazed by its lack. When asked to describe the content of Tokyo Rose's radio show, some former servicemen recounted taunting tales of unfaithful wives who were dating draft-dodgers. Others remembered more ominous broadcasts. They claimed that Tokyo Rose "welcomed" American troops to the Pacific by predicting their movements and warning of impending attacks. Between December 1945 and June 1949, FBI agents collected former 2 servicemen's stories about Tokyo Rose with the goal of building a treason case against Iva Toguri. Toguri was an American Nisei who had been visiting a sick aunt in Japan at the time of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor in December 1941.

  • Jazz Im -Dritten Reich"·
    Guido Faclder ZWISCHEN (MUSIKALISCHEM) WIDERSTAND UND PROPAGANDA - JAZZ IM -DRITTEN REICH"· Durch vielerlei "unerträglich sachunkundig[e]" (Wolfgang Muth in: Kellersmann 1990, Vorwort) Berichte in den Medien wurde und wird die Thematik Jazz im "Dritten Reich" oftmals nur auf nostalgische oder aber spektalmläre Episoden reduziert, dies umso leichter, als bisher nur wenige wissenschaftliche Arbeiten dazu vorliegen.2 Widersprüchliche Reaktionen nationalsozialistischer Behörden auf das "Swingfieber" sowie das Kompetenzgerangel unter den Kommandostellen erschweren einen Überblick, der in diesem Beitrag versucht werden soll. Swingbegeisterung und Jazzverbote Jazz spielte nach der Weltwirtschaftskrise bis zur ersten großen Swingwelle Mitte der 30er Jahre musikalisch nur eine untergeordnete Rolle. Wenn dennoch vielerlei Jazz-Verbote ausgesprochen wurden, dann deswegen, "weil es von Tatkraft und nationaler Gesinnung zeugte, gegen sogenannte 'fremdrassige Musik' vorzugehen" (Schröder 1988, 178). Als Reaktion auf den politischen Umschwung verließen etliche "nichtarische" Kapellmeister, beispielsweise Marek Weber, Dajos Bela und Paul Godwin, aber auch komplette Bands wie die Weintraub Syncopators, die von einer Auslandstournee nicht wieder zurückkehrten, schon 1933 das nationalsozialistische Deutschland. Besonders die Abwanderung amerikanischer Musiker wirkte sich auf das Niveau deutscher Jazzmusik negativ aus. Der Thüringer Erlaß des Volksbildungs- und Innenministers Wilhelm Frick vom I Überarbeitete und ungekürzte FlI8SIIJlg des Vortrags vom 25.9.1992 in Weimar. Für die vielfiltigen Anregungen und die wertvolle Kritik danke ich CIaudia Westermann recht herzlich. 2 Selbst in neuesten I~ublikationen werden die Tatsachen verdreht, beispielsweise: 'Nach 1933 gab es keine Beschäftigung deutscher Musiker mit dem Iazz mehr. [ ... ] Erst das Ende des Zweiten Weltkrieges erschloß uns diesen Musikstil von neueJn' (Holzt-Edelhagen 1989, 105). 437 September 1930 gilt als erste Maßnahme der Nationalsozialisten gegen den Jazz.

  • 1 “The White Cliffs”: Literature and War in the Days of Radio by Rebecca Stelzer I Have Loved England, Dearly and Deeply
    “The White Cliffs”: Literature and War in the Days of Radio by Rebecca Stelzer I have loved England, dearly and deeply Since that first morning, shining and pure, The white cliffs of Dover, I saw rising steeply Out of the sea that once made her secure. These are the opening lines of Alice Duer Miller’s The White Cliffs, a sentimental story- poem of love and sacrifice in the two World Wars. Although it has largely been forgotten in today’s studies of war literature, it was immensely popular in the 1940s, spending thirteen weeks on the best-seller list (Justice 220) and selling almost 700,000 copies in the first four years of publication (Miller, All Our Lives). Its popularity is almost something of a mystery, as it does not fit the gritty battlefront realism or upbeat “home front” domesticity of other contemporary fiction, nor is the quality of the verse very exceptional (one critic called it “doggerel”). Rather, the phenomenon that was The White Cliffs can only be explained by the way it met a need in the British and American cultures and dovetailed with the radio propaganda culture of the 1940s. It is difficult to find secondary criticism on Alice Duer Miller or her most famous work. Two articles that stand out are Fred M. Leventhal’s “British Writers, American Readers: Women’s Voices in Wartime” (Albion 2000) and K. R. M. Short’s “‘The White Cliffs of Dover’: Promoting the Anglo-American Alliance in World War II” (Historical Journal of Film, Radio, & Television 1982). Leventhal’s article is mostly concerned with how The White Cliffs aligns with other domestic fiction of the time, but does not completely address the poem’s wider appeal.
