In this discourse history, W J Dodd analyses the 'unquiet voices'
of opponents whose contemporary critiques of Nazism, from positions
of territorial and inner exile, focused on the 'language of
Nazism'. Individual chapters review 'precursor' discourses; Nazi
public discourse from 1933 to 1945; the testimonies of 'unquiet
voices' abroad, and in private and published texts in the 'Reich';
attempts to 'denazify the language' (1945-49), and the legacies of
the Nazi past in a retrospective discourse of 'coming to terms'
with the Nazi past. In the period from 1945, the book focuses on
contestations of 'tainted language' and instrumentalizations of the
Nazi past, and the persistence of linguistic taboos in contemporary
German usage. Highly engaging, with English translations provided
throughout, this book will provide an invaluable resource for
scholars of discourse analysis, sociolinguistics, and German
history and culture; as well as readers with a general interest in
language and politics.
