Miskolczy Ambrus: Hitler’s library

The first book to present the so-called Hitler Library. It sheds new light on the readings of Hitler and on his techniques on how to read a book. Hitler presented himself as an ideal reader of Schopenhauer, nevertheless, his remarks destroy that image, particularly if we see how he read Ernst Jünger, Richard Wagner, or Paul de Lagarde, and how he reread Mein Kampf. The book describes the gnostic character of the phenomenon as an explication of the success of nazism and that of the Hitler myth and challenges the static views of traditional historiography.
