The influence of Nazism on German culture was a key concern for
many Anglo-American writers, who struggled to reconcile the many
contributions of Germany to European civilization, with the
barbarity of the new regime.
In German Literature Through Nazi Eyes, H.G. Atkins gives an
account of how the Nazis undertook a re-evaluation of German
literature, making it sub-ordinate to their own interests. All
reference to Jewish writers and influence was virtually eliminated,
and key writers such as Goethe and Lessing were re-interpreted.
What was left was a military history that was avowedly militant and
propagandist.
