Nazi Propaganda

[edit]

Does anybody know of any relevant secondary readings that focus on how the Nazi's chose to depict Judaism as a religion, as opposed to how the Jewish people as an ethnic/racial group, were portrayed. Thanks in advance --Andrew 17:06, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You want Antisemitism: myth and hate from antiquity to the present by Marvin Perry & Frederick M. Schweitzer. To get a general idea of how the Nazis perceived Judaism as a religion, The Eternal Jew is probably your best starting point, although for obvious reasons you'll find it difficult to get hold of. ‑ iridescent 17:13, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It has been uploaded several times in full on a well known video sharing site. I also found Hitler, Germans, and the "Jewish Question" by Sarah Ann Gordon which has a lengthy preview on Google Books. Alansplodge (talk) 18:16, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
This would be the video sharing site with "Don't be evil" as their slogan, I take it? At least tell me nobody's advertising on it. ‑ iridescent 18:27, 22 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Of the five I checked, no, no ads. But one was uploaded by Adolf Hitler. So...semi-evil? InedibleHulk (talk) 17:24, 25 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
