	Adolf Hitler - Biography
		Adolf Hitler was born in 1889 in a small austrian village close to the german border, the son of a border customs clerk and a housemaid.
		Hitler quickly realized that their ideas match his, and that they can be his vehicle for political power, that he decided that he wants as a result of the affair of the war's defeat and the humiliating peace treaty.
		Hitler received a sentence of 5 years in prison, but thanks to the dominance of the "eastern" politicians, which included himself, his imprisonment was like a VIP hotel stay.

	Hitlers Life
		Hitler saw his first opera at age twelve and was immediately captivated by its Germanic music, pagan myths, tales of ancient Kings and Knights and their glorious struggles against hated enemies.
		Hitler would only tolerate approval from his friend and could not stand to be corrected, a personality trait he had shown in high school and as a younger boy as well.
		Hitler led his friend atop a steep hill where he spoke in a strange voice of a great mission in which he would lead the people to freedom, similar to the plot in the opera he had just seen.

		Hitler claimed that, as leader of the German Reich, it was his responsibility to defend the maltreated Germans.
		Hitler's western flank was open, but there was not much he could do about that, it depended on the severity of the reactions of Britain and France.
		Hitler wanted to give himself at least a tiny degree of security; in order to ease the reactions of Britain and France, Hitler intended to make it appear as though he had no choice but to invade Poland.

		And the flower sellers sat on the corners of the streets, enthroned upon their simple stools by their displays of blooms, silently drawing in the passers by with the gay sweetness of their wares; but the girl who picked the flowers was not amongst them.
		The flowers were looted, along with much else in the house, by Roundhead troops during the Civil War and given, rather unwisely, by their captain, to the daughter of the Duke of Cornwall (a rampant royalist).
		The pot which holds the flowers was fashioned for Sir Geraint by the White Elves of Worcester, from the congealed sediments of their own sewage pits, as punishment for their abduction of Katherine and the entire pig population of Yorkshire.

		For the rest of his life he had a photo of her in his room which flowers were placed in front of every year on the anniversaries of her birth and her death.
		In 1931 and after, Hitler was already well on his way to power but in the words of the historian David Irving: "By 1936 Hitler was an extremely cranky vegetarian" and even his idea of what a vegetarian seems to deviate quite significantly from what we currently take the word to mean.

		A genocide which to this day is denied by the country that committed it and which has never given justice to the million and a half people, half of the world's population of this minority first Christian nation.

	Hitler's Art and National Socialist Era Art
		Before amassing his fortune with the enormous royalties from the publication of his hugely popular Mein Kampf, Hitler earned a living by using his artistic skills to produce paintings that were sold to the public or used for postcards.
		Hitler was a great student of the fine arts and studied music, opera, painting, sculpture, and architecture.
		Hitler believed that modern art was in conflict with the eternal values of beauty and therefore could only lead to a decline of civilization.

		There was one accusing me of being a Nazi sympathiser wanting to promote Hitler as a decent human being, and threatening to report me to the anti-defamation league.

	Reading Leonard Cohen: Reprise
		The Hitler scene indeed seems to illustrate Freud's remark that "The pleasure principle seems actually to serve the death instincts" (109).
		Ravvin suggests the scene with Hitler is avoided "because it is a real site of rupture in the novel, at which point all the motifs of metamorphosis, sexual ecstasy, and transcendent yearning are diminished by the premonition shared by F. and Edith of their own deaths."
		When he exits the bedroom, Hitler leaves behind "the vague stink of his sulphurous flatulence," a fiery and gaseous image which signs him doubly as the prince of darkness and the principal author of Nazi horror.

		On TV in the seventies Private Pike repeated one of the childish wartime chants (ââ¦Hitlerâs barmy, soâs his army...â) in the presence of a captured U-boat commander, who angrily demanded to know his name so that retribution could be exacted after the war (âDonât tell him, Pike!â)

	Mother Figure in Film
		It was amidst this economic crisis that Hitler began expanding his power base and by the time the film was released he had gained firm control of the German state.
		Despite Hitler’s conservative gender politics and his belief that women should be at home reproducing little Nazi children for the future, he recognized the importance of the “mother” role in rallying support for his policies and he was intuitive to do so.
		This woman becomes a uniting point for the German public, “if she supports Hitler then so should we support him.” Though Hitler wished to maintain a strict gender hierarchy he was conscious of the strong support base German motherhood could provide in his campaign to unify Germany behind the Nazi party.

	"Bullets and Flowers," by Yevgeny Yevtushenko
		When, thin and open as the pulse of conscience, you put a flower in a rifle's mouth and said, "Flowers are better than bullets," that was pure hope speaking.
		Give no flowers to a state that outlaws truth; such states reciprocate with cynical, cruel gifts, and your gift, Allison Krause, was the bullet that blasted the flower.
		Bullets & Flowers was originally published in May, 1970 in the communist party's Pravda newspaper.

	How postmodern is Cohen's poetry?
		Cohen's embrace of mass culture in Flowers is a dialectical synthesis of the opposite positions on mass media adopted by Livesay ("Autumn: 1939," and of course in her various writings for radio) and Klein (in "Portrait of the Poet as Landscape").
		That is, here, as elsewhere in Flowers, the turn to Nazi themes is not a matter of ethnic privilege — in late capitalism Jewish (or any other) ethnicity seems to be defined as much by consuming the same mass media products as by some racial determinism.
		So Flowers for Hitler is written from the subject position of the diasporic intellectual (Bhabha, Said, Ahmad), in a sunny Greece and meditating on old Montreal.

		We need think only of Hitler and his race-based Reich or of apartheid in South Africa to see that biological politics can truly be " les Fleurs du mal," flowers of evil.

	Review of Flowers for Hitler
		It's useful to think of Flowers for Hitler as the author auditioning himself for all the parts in an unwritten play.
		In Flowers for Hitler Cohen isn't so much shifting his ground; he's trying to unjell himself before it's too late.
		What we get in a great deal of Flowers for Hitler is the returning of a virtuoso instrument, elaborate mnemonic devices, a series of techniques for the extraction of selves, a disciplined fulfilling of irrational tasks, a combination of derangement and restoration within the poetic process.
