George Bell was one of the most significant British church leaders
of the mid-20th century and in many ways he came to define the
involvement of British church people with the issues which arose
from the Third Reich. The George Bell-Alphons Koechlin
Correspondence, 1933-54 presents the extensive correspondence
between Bell and a leading Swiss pastor and President of the Basel
Church Council, Alphons Koechlin. The letters of Bell and Koechlin
make an important contribution to our understanding of ways in
which the unfolding history of the Hitler regime was interpreted in
an international context from its earliest months in 1933 to its
final destruction in 1945. In presenting the letters, this book
captures a sustained meeting of European minds, thinking together
in the midst of a crisis that was altering the conventional
perimeters of politics and religion, and by degrees changing the
life of the whole European continent - and drawing British politics
into its vortex. This volume provides for the first time all the
letters exchanged between Bell and Koechlin in their original
English, with full scholarly apparatus and connected material. It
contributes valuably to the historiography of the Third Reich and
develops our understanding of Nazism not simply as an episode in
German history, but as a fundamental crisis in international
politics, religion and society.
