Karl Kraus, apocalyptic satirist

Mehr zum Buch

"The legend that the satirist responded to Hitler's seizure of power with stunned silence is refuted in the final section of the book, 'Into the Third Reich', which highlights his analysis of 'creeping fascism' and of the swastika as the 'twisted cross' of politicised religiosity. His career culminated in Dritte Walpurgisnacht, an analysis of Nazi ideology that has proved enduringly influential."--Jacket.
