Summary: | Under the auspices of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and the Institut für Zeitgeschichte, Jürgen Matthäus and Frank Bajohr have produced the most complete version yet of the diary of Alfred Rosenberg, one of Adolf Hitler's closest associates. After lengthy efforts to recover the diary from the estate of Robert Kempner, a German-Jewish emigré who participated in the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg and the Subsequent Nuremberg Trials, it has appeared in German, English, Spanish, French, and Polish, with other editions yet to come. The editors suggest that additional diary entries may yet be discovered. Still, in their view what we have now challenges previous scholarly assessments that—despite Rosenberg's execution for war crimes—emphasized his marginality. |
