Opis

From images of jubilant mothers offering the Nazi salute, to Eva Braun and Magda Goebbels, women in Hitler s Germany and their role as supporters and guarantors of the Third Reich continue to exert a particular fascination. This account moves away from the stereotypes to provide a more complete picture of how they experienced Nazism in peacetime and at war. What was the status and role of women in pre-Nazi Germany and how did different groups of women respond to the Nazi project in practice? Jill Stephenson looks at the social, cultural and economic organisation of women s lives under Nazism, and assesses opposing claims that German women were either victims or villains of National Socialism."
