Jeffrey Herf, a leading scholar in the field, offers the most extensive examination to date of Nazi propaganda activities targeting Arabs and Muslims in the Middle East during World War II and the ...Holocaust. He draws extensively on previously unused and little-known archival resources, including the shocking transcriptions of the "Axis Broadcasts in Arabic" radio programs, which convey a strongly anti-Semitic message.
Herf explores the intellectual, political, and cultural context in which German and European radical anti-Semitism was found to resonate with similar views rooted in a selective appropriation of the traditions of Islam. Pro-Nazi Arab exiles in wartime Berlin, including Haj el-Husseini and Rashid el-Kilani, collaborated with the Nazis in constructing their Middle East propaganda campaign. By integrating the political and military history of the war in the Middle East with the intellectual and cultural dimensions of the propagandistic diffusion of Nazi ideology, Herf offers the most thorough examination to date of this important chapter in the history of World War II. Importantly, he also shows how the anti-Semitism promoted by the Nazi propaganda effort contributed to the anti-Semitism exhibited by adherents of radical forms of Islam in the Middle East today.
Los ecos de una vida ocupan normalmente la parte final, conclusiva y, a veces, fuera ya de la lógica argumental de una biografía. Y si hay algo a nivel popular que está vivo entre nosotros es el ...Temple, y lo está gracias a un proceso judicial que acabó con la orden de llevar a la hoguera a Jacques de Molay, "l'une des rares figures du Moyen Âge -dice el autor- dont beaucoup de gens connaissent le nom" La segunda razón es puramente metodológica. Si Jacques de Molay y la orden del Temple son tan populares, y lo son con independencia del papel histórico que realmente desempeñaron, es preciso conocer la causa de esa popularidad, y esto es algo que, al margen de la reconstrucción de sus realidades, se ha generado modernamente. Comenzar por su análisis permite detectar todo un cúmulo de datos y precepciones legendarias, cuando no míticas, que debidamente detectadas, nos facilita acercarnos después al tiempo de Jacques de Molay y a su trayectoria personal, y hacerlo liberados de una extraordinaria cantidad de prejuicios que sin duda pueden contaminar la labor del historiador. Pienso que el documentadísimo análisis de este argumento aporta claves hasta ahora desconocidas, y ayudan a explicar cómo el posterior desarrollo pictórico y teatral de "lo templario", desde 1800, da lugar a la creación de la moderna orden del Temple por parte de FabréPalabrat. Desde luego, me parece especialmente pertinente la relación que el propio autor establece entre la labor del egiptólogo Jan Assmann al intentar explicar la "reinvención" moderna del Egipto faraónico, con el problema del Temple y la masonería.
El presente texto contempla la muralla como elemento material de una inmaterialidad, a saber, la condición de ciudadano, la separación espacial y mental del ámbito de la cultura, el saber y la ...civilización (ciudad amurallada interior y su entorno más inmediato usado para actividades industriales, localizar cementerios, etc.,), del espacio salvaje y natural (territorio lejos de la ciudad, controlado por esta o no, que sirve sobre todo de aprovisionamiento de recursos naturales y control del territorio). Gran parte del buen hacer y resultados incluidos en esta publicación parte de la inclusión de la Arqueología como disciplina básica para comprender los usos y delimitaciones del espacio, tramos viarios, técnicas constructivas, restos materiales de las actividades sociales, culturales y económicas, etc. Para empezar, el texto de la directora del libro, María Mercedes Delgado Pérez, arabista de la Universidad de Sevilla especializada en la historia política y cultural de al-Ándalus e Islam; un relato que ya de por sí pudiera servir de reseña de la obra en que se inscribe, pero que vertebra una introducción escueta y comentada de la misma y sus aportaciones, justificando así la realidad y valía de este libro coral. Es el caso del capítulo que nos ocupa, donde la autora analiza la historiografía, el corpus documental escrito y los escenarios y paisajes que la violencia generó, ilustrando a la perfección el fenómeno urbano configurado por la guerra.
To this end, the play is analysed from a dual perspective, assessing both the playwright's intent and the audience's acceptance. The study considers a number of factors: the writer's ideological ...standpoint and his environment, the close ties between the play and the political context as well as its relationship to the doctrinal texts published in the journal Acción Española. Durante la Dictadura de Primo de Rivera, en la que pronto se implicó políticamente, se destacó también como ideólogo y plasmó en El hecho y la idea de la Unión Patriótica (1929), considerado el ideario del partido primorriverista, un alineamiento con el tradicionalismo español aderezado con algunos conceptos de la nueva derecha europea que en España no habían calado todavía con fuerza.3 La proclamación de la República aceleró y profundizó el proceso de alejamiento del liberalismo en la mayor parte de los monárquicos que no tardaron en pasar a la acción. La primera fue la creación de Renovación Española, partido nacido a principios de 1933 con el objetivo de articular un programa genuinamente monárquico que diferenciara a la derecha alfonsina de la táctica accidentalista de la CEDA.6 Ante la escasa proyección de esa primera iniciativa, en la primavera de 1934 nacía el Bloque Nacional con la intención de convertirse en una plataforma de unión de organizaciones derechistas alrededor de la figura de Calvo Sotelo.7 Acción Española cultivó también la vía conspirativa y contribuyó a difundir la idea de que subvertir el orden republicano era justo desde los puntos de vista político y religioso.8 En la práctica, muchos de los integrantes del grupo estuvieron relacionados, de un modo u otro, con todos los intentos de sublevación contrarrepublicana que se produjeron en el período.9 Pemán no colaboró con la misma intensidad en todos los frentes de lucha abiertos por Acción Española.
Inhumanities is an unprecedented account of the ways Nazi Germany manipulated and mobilized European literature, philosophy, painting, sculpture and music in support of its ideological ends. David B. ...Dennis shows how, based on belief that the Third Reich represented the culmination of Western civilization, culture became a key propaganda tool in the regime's program of national renewal and its campaign against political, national and racial enemies. Focusing on the daily output of the Völkischer Beobachter, the party's official organ and the most widely circulating German newspaper of the day, he reveals how activists twisted history, biography and aesthetics to fit Nazism's authoritarian, militaristic and anti-Semitic world views. Ranging from National Socialist coverage of Germans such as Luther, Dürer, Goethe, Beethoven, Wagner and Nietzsche to 'great men of the Nordic West' such as Socrates, Leonardo and Michelangelo, Dennis reveals the true extent of the regime's ambitious attempt to reshape the 'German mind'.
In the tumultuous first decade of the Cuban Revolution, Fidel Castro and other leaders saturated the media with altruistic images of themselves in a campaign to win the hearts of Cuba's six million ...citizens. InVisions of Power in Cuba, Lillian Guerra argues that these visual representations explained rapidly occurring events and encouraged radical change and mutual self-sacrifice.Mass rallies and labor mobilizations of unprecedented scale produced tangible evidence of what Fidel Castro called "unanimous support" for a revolution whose "moral power" defied U.S. control. Yet participation in state-orchestrated spectacles quickly became a requirement for political inclusion in a new Cuba that policed most forms of dissent. Devoted revolutionaries who resisted disastrous economic policies, exposed post-1959 racism, and challenged gender norms set by Cuba's one-party state increasingly found themselves marginalized, silenced, or jailed. Using previously unexplored sources, Guerra focuses on the lived experiences of citizens, including peasants, intellectuals, former prostitutes, black activists, and filmmakers, as they struggled to author their own scripts of revolution by resisting repression, defying state-imposed boundaries, and working for anti-imperial redemption in a truly free Cuba.
L'assassinat de François de Guise par Poltrot de Méré, le 24 février 1563, eut un retentissement considérable dans l' opinion publique. Pendant que les protestants se réjouissaient, les catholiques ...rendirent au défunt un hommage en vers français et latins. Celui-ci fut orchestré par la maison des Guises et prit la forme d'une salve de plaquettes imprimées par le libraire parisien Thomas Richard qui connurent une diffusion en France et hors de ses frontières. C'est ce corpus méconnu de vers manuscrits écrits par les protestants et des plaquettes imprimées publiées par les catholiques que nous analysons, afin d'identifier les motifs, les acteurs et les conséquences de la polémique de 1563. Il s'agira aussi d'observer les mécanismes de cette offensive, notamment par le moyen de l'édition, et de reconstituer les modes de constitution de << publics >> (auteurs et lecteurs) que s'efforcent de fédérer les deux partis antagonistes. The assassination of François de Guise by Poltrot de Méré on 24 February 1563 exercised a considerable impact on public opinion. While Protestants celebrated, Catholics paid homage to the deceased in the form of verses written in French and Latin. His tribute was orchestrated by the de Guise family, who were responsible for the publication, via the Parisian bookseller, Thomas Richard, of a salvo of pamphlets distributed both in France and beyond its borders. This article examines the historical circumstances of the death of François de Lorraine in an attempt to shed light on the literary audiences, i.e., the Protestant and Catholic groups who gathered together to praise either the victim or the assassin. In this political, religious, and literary controversy of 1563, both sides turned to publication to spread their propaganda and to unite their supporters.
In every country, state symbols such as the national flag, emblem, and national anthems represent the independence and sovereignty of the state. In the Soviet Union as well as in other autocratic ...states symbols also played an important role in propaganda, influencing peoples’ attitudes to the actions of the state at all levels. These symbols could also be found, together with powerful imagery in posters, on buildings, monuments and many other things visible and incorporated in the routine life the people. Ukraine has huge historical heritage of symbolism and propaganda from when the country was a major part of the USSR. After the creation of the USSR a political, socio-economic, cultural and spiritual experiment on the construction of a communist society, which in the case of Ukraine was unprecedented in scale and tragedy, began. The collectivization of the village is one of the most tragic pages in the history of Ukraine. As the most important grain-growing region of the country at the time its production was vital to feed the growing cities and industrialisation. The forced collectivisation led to starvation in the 1930s and millions of people died. In order to counter this most public information showed people another side of collectivization. Propaganda was used, such as posters and slogans, to persuade the peasants to join the collective farms and to promote the real or fictitious results of the workers, and, conversely, to attack people who did not want to believe in the “bright future” of the USSR and to denounce “kulaks” and “saboteurs”. Materials from archives and published sources show many examples of Ukrainian images and symbols of that time which shed a light on the way the collectivisation process was portrayed and promoted.
The present work deals with the chronicles produced in the Jornal dos Sports (JS) in the 1950s, trying to analyze their main ideas, representations and idiosyncrasies produced by their respective ...authors. From this analysis, we can identify and propose a classification among the main chroniclers analyzed, according to their social origins and style of writing. Era mais um integrante oriundo do jornal O Globo, além da Rádio Globo, demonstrando a atuaçāo e articu^āo de um mesmo profissional em vários veículos e meios de comunicaçāo. Como praticamente todos os demais autores do JS, defendía uma linha clubística e nāo se esquivara de esconder seu clube de coraçāo - o Botafogo.21 No plano internacional, cobriu vários eventos como Jogos Olímpicos e Copas do Mundo FIFA e adotara um discurso bem liberal nas suas análises tendo como referencia a proximidade cultural com os Estados Unidos e uma aversāo ao esporte e equipes que viessem do bloco soviético.22 Outro integrante, Everardo Lopes, também já era um veterano no JS e durante a Copa do Mundo de 1950 atuou como comentarista na Rádio Mayrink Veiga, demonstrando mais uma vez as relaçöes bem próximas dos profissionais que atuavam no JS e nas rádios da cidade do Rio de Janeiro (HEIZER, 1997, p. 82). No dia da corrida, (...), nao havia, como de costume, ninguém ali no Serviço de Repressao nem naqueles boxes lá do fundo, a nao ser os cavalos com seus respectivos cavalariços, pois nessa hora, todos os veterinários e empregados vao pra cerca ver a corrida.

Por supuesto, TTT fue despedido gracias al Plan Escudo ante la Crisis. El presidente frunció el ceño y observó "eso quiere decir que si lo hubieran detectado antes o no lo hubiesen contratado del ...todo, no habríamos experimentado la baja y para este momento devengaríamos mayores utilidades. ¡Ese TTT nos costó aproximadamente 100 millones con su propaganda en contra de nuestro software educativo!".
