Alfred Rosenberg
Alfred Rosenberg’s unique achievement is to have recognized the meaning of history as the “shaping of great spiritual and political struggles”, to have depicted its course under the influence of these continuing forces and to have made the spiritual and political world change brought about by National Socialism visible in its historical preconditions. In a magnificent presentation, he juxtaposes historical figures and the value systems embodied by them and, by emphasizing what is significant and essential, he justifies the moral and spiritual consequences of the political struggles of the present. With this new anthology, Alfred Rosenberg’s militant impulse once again comes to the fore in all phases of intellectual life and ideological debate. These speeches and essays, the selection of which is deliberately limited to certain major leitmotifs, are imbued with the unshakeable faith that has been characteristic of the Führer’s old comrades-in-arms since the first days of the movement and which at the same time is intended as an appeal to all the young, emerging creative forces in the new Germany to emulate them.
