Trama

Steigmann-Gall argues that Nazism was neither unrelated to Christianity nor actively opposed to it.




Note Editore

Analyzing the previously unexplored religious views of the Nazi elite, Richard Steigmann-Gall argues against the consensus that Nazism as a whole was either unrelated to Christianity or actively opposed to it. He demonstrates that many participants in the Nazi movement believed that the contours of their ideology were based on a Christian understanding of Germany's ills and their cure. A program usually regarded as secular in inspiration - the creation of a racialist 'people's community' embracing antisemitism, antiliberalism and anti-Marxism - was, for these Nazis, conceived in explicitly Christian terms. His examination centers on the concept of 'positive Christianity,' a religion espoused by many members of the party leadership. He also explores the struggle the 'positive Christians' waged with the party's paganists - those who rejected Christianity in toto as foreign and corrupting - and demonstrates that this was not just a conflict over religion, but over the very meaning of Nazi ideology itself.




Sommario

1. Positive christianity: the doctrine of the time of struggle; 2. Above the confessions: bridging the religious divide; 3. Blood and soil: the paganist ambivalence; 4. National renewal: religion and the New Germany; 5. Completing the reformation: the Protestant Reich Church; 6. Public need before private greed: building the people's community; 7. Gottgläubig: assent of the anti-Christians?; 8. The Holy Reich: some conclusions.
