The Third Reich's legacy is in flux. For much of the post-war
period, the Nazi era has been viewed moralistically as an
exceptional period of history intrinsically different from all
others. Since the turn of the millennium, however, this view has
been challenged by a powerful wave of normalization. Gavriel D.
Rosenfeld charts this important international trend by examining
the shifting representation of the Nazi past in contemporary
western intellectual and cultural life. Focusing on works of
historical scholarship, popular novels, counterfactual histories,
feature films, and Internet websites, he identifies notable changes
in the depiction of the Second World War, the Holocaust, and the
figure of Adolf Hitler himself. By exploring the origins of these
works and assessing the controversies they have sparked in the
United States and Europe, Hi Hitler! offers a fascinating and
timely analysis of the shifting status of the Nazi past in western
memory.
