Depuis 1936, après la remilitarisation de la Rhénanie, Hitler jouit du soutien de la grande majorité des Allemands. L'Allemagne prospère grâce à la reprise économique et accumule les succès diplomatiques, cependant que l'autorité charismatique d'Hitler soumet les milieux d'affaires et l'armée, qui souscrivent à sa volonté de domination du continent européen.

"Comment Hitler a-t-il été possible ? Comment un désaxé aussi bizarre a-t-il pu prendre le pouvoir en Allemagne, pays moderne, complexe, développé et culturellement avancé ? Comment a-t-il pu, à partir de 1933, s'imposer à des cercles habitués à diriger, bien éloignés des brutes nazies ? Comment a-t-il réussi à entraîner l'Allemagne dans le pari catastrophique visant à établir la domination de son pays en Europe, avec, en son cœur, un programme génocidaire terrible et sans précédent ?

Ian Kershaw ist einer der bedeutendsten Historiker unserer Zeit und einer der besten Kenner der Geschichte des Nationalsozialismus. Seine Biografie Adolf Hitlers hat Maßstäbe gesetzt, sie verbindet auf unerreichte Weise das Porträt Hitlers mit dem Porträt seiner Zeit.

Hailed as the most compelling biography of the German dictator yet written, Ian Kershaw's Hitler brings us closer than ever before to the heart of its subject's immense darkness. From his illegitimate birth in a small Austrian village to his fiery death in a bunker under the Reich chancellery in Berlin, Adolf Hitler left a murky trail, strewn with contradictory tales and overgrown with self-created myths. One truth prevails: the sheer scale of the evils that he unleashed on the world has made him a demonic figure without equal in the 20th century.

In the summer of 1914 most of Europe plunged into a war so catastrophic that it unhinged the continent's politics and beliefs in a way that took generations to recover from. The disaster terrified its survivors, shocked that a civilization that had blandly assumed itself to be a model for the rest of the world had collapsed into a chaotic savagery beyond any comparison.

Few, if any, 20th-century political leaders have enjoyed greater popularity among their own people than Hitler did in the decade or so following his rise to power in 1933. The personality of Hitler himself, however, can scarcely explain this immense popularity or his political effectiveness in the 1930s and '40s. His hold over the German people lay rather in the hopes and perceptions of the millions who adored him. Based largely on the reports of government officials, party agencies, and political opponents, Kershaw's study charts the creation, growth, and decline of the Hitler myth.

Enormous economic improvements transformed the continent. The catastrophic era of the world wars receded into an ever more distant past, though its long shadow continued to shape mentalities. Europe was now a divided continent, living under the nuclear threat in a period intermittently fraught with anxiety.
