“Hitler. History of a Dictator” by Sybille Steinbacher will be published on May 15, 2025
Hitler’s rise and fascination remain enigmatic, and all the more so the more he is exaggerated and demonized. Sybille Steinbacher describes in “Hitler. Geschichte eines Diktators”, which will be published by C.H. Beck on May 15, 2025, Sybille Steinbacher describes Hitler’s origins, the roots of his anti-Semitism and his rise to become a beacon of hope and Reich Chancellor. She explains how, in just a few years, he expanded his rule based on racism and an enthusiastic national community and ultimately brought about a unique catastrophe with the Second World War and the Holocaust. In an epilogue, she asks about the perception of Hitler after 1945.
