Samenvatting

Nazi Germany: Confronting the Myths provides a concise and compelling introduction to the Third Reich. At the same time, it challenges and demystifies the many stereotypes surrounding Hitler and Nazi Germany.

"Drawing on the very latest scholarship, Catherine Epstein offers a lucidly written, accessible, engaging account of Hitler and the Third Reich. Nazi Germany: Confronting the Myths is an ideal choice for the undergraduate classroom and will likely be the text that introduces many, many students to this most troubling chapter of modern German history." Robert Moeller, University of California, Irvine

"Among the many textbooks on Nazi Germany, Catherine Epstein's stands out both because of its persuasive combination of the most recent research on this subject interwoven with judicious discussions of continuing debates on unresolved historiographical questions and because of the skillful ways in which she draws the reader into this complex field. Students and teachers in advanced secondary as well as higher education will also find this book to be the best short guide to the history of the Nazi Holocaust." V. R. Berghahn, Columbia University

Nazi Germany: Confronting the Myths offers a succinct, compelling overview of the history of the Third Reich. Drawing on the most recent research in the field, Catherine Epstein provides a broad-ranging and up-to-date historical synthesis of Hitler's Germany and of historiographical debates concerning the Nazi regime. The book is structured around myths and stereotypes that dominate popular understanding of this era of German history. By analyzing and debunking those views, the author provides an argumentdriven approach to the study of the Third Reich, encouraging critical engagement with the period.

Negatief, positief, neutraal: we zetten een review altijd online. We controleren wel eerst of ’ie voldoet aan onze reviewvoorwaarden en niet nep is. We controleren ook of ’ie is geschreven door iemand die het artikel heeft gekocht via bol.com en zetten dit er dan bij. De controles gebeuren automatisch, al kijken er soms mensen mee. Bol.com betaalt niet voor reviews. Als een reviewer door een andere partij is vergoed, staat dit in de review zelf.
