  IN HITLER'S GERMANY. Daily Life in the Third Reich - ENGELMANN, BERNT   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-07-20)
In this unprecedented inquiry into Germany's suppressed past, the prominent writer and journalist Bernt Engelmann interviews the "silent" generation and lets us hear, for the first time, how Germans lived the years of Nazi rule from Hitler's rise to power to the collapse of the Third Reich.
Engelmann ferrets out the small accommodations and minor decisions of daily life that allowed Nazism to infiltrate an entire society.
Engelmann skillfully weaves these interviews into his own remarkable life story: from his childhood in a family opposed to Hitler to his double life in the Luftwaffe and his imprisonment in Dachau for anti-Nazi activities.

From his schooldays in 1933 through service as a private in the air force to imprisonment in 1944, Engelmann had no affection for the regime, and his role in assisting Jews and others to emigrate left him in difficulties late in the war.
The story is hung in loose chronology on Engelmann's autobiography, but it is most engaging for the attitudes, heroism, and folly of the diverse characters (supporters and opponents of the regime are among Engelmann's relatives and friends) in his successive anecdotes.

But scattered throughout the play is a theme first raised by Bernt Engelmann in "Deutschland Ohne Juden" ("Germany Without Jews"), a book published in 1979.
Engelmann belonged to the German resistance and was twice incarcerated by the Gestapo and was, before his death, president of the League of German Authors.
His theme was that the reason Germany lost the war was that it drove out Jews like Einstein, Meitner, and Born, who would have been able to lead the research toward a nuclear bomb.

And then there’s young Bernt Engelmann on Kristallnacht, at this point not acting from forethought, but just a teenager shocked at the destruction of his neighbors’ apartment.
By the end of the war, his resistance is more hidden; in fact, Engelmann, like Ratzinger, was in the German army (Engelmann volunteered just before WWII started in the hope that he could finish his service and be on his way with his family to England before war broke out).
There’s the oblivious classmate of Engelmann’s, the one for whom the arrival of the Third Reich meant gaiety and excitement, and Kristallnacht was simply the day she got engaged.

 Holocaust Literature: The German Experience
Bernt Engelmann was only twenty-four when General Patton's Third Army liberated him from the Dachau concentration camp.
In his book, he takes a journey back in time, visiting people and places he knew as a child growing up in Germany between the years 1933 and 1945.
How did family conversations go in the family parlor?" By focusing on average people living in Germany during the Third Reich, Engelmann examines the cultural climate that contributed to the moral collapse of a civilized nation.

 The Great Patents Heist. John Nugent.
The message of Bernt Engelmann's 1974 Deutschland ohne Juden, published in English by Bantam Books, New York in 1984 as Germany Without Jews, is clear: You Germans were mediocre until we Jews came, and now that we're gone, you have sunk back into mediocrity.
Engelmann cites endless lists of great Jewish MDs of German or Austrian domicile, several of whom, such as bacteriologists Paul Ehrlich (1854-1915) and Robert Koch (1843-1910), won the Nobel Prize in medicine and physiology (Ehrlich, 1908; Koch, 1905).
Sigmund Freud (1856-1939), of dubious credentials, is one of Engelmann's prize examples.

 Foreign Affairs - Book Review - In Hitler's Germany: Everyday Life in the Third Reich - Bernt Engelmann
Both books try to tell the story of ordinary, everyday life in Nazi Germany; though different in character, each has its own shortcomings.
Engelmann, a well-known German journalist, uses interviews and his own experiences: he relates anecdotes, tinged with sentimentality, that tell a familiar tale of Nazi violence and a range of responses from careerist acquiescence to concealed, sometimes very effective resistance.
Peukert aims at a scholarly study and uses much valuable documentary evidence collected by the regime itself and by the exiled Socialist Party.
