The first book that presents the so called Hitler-Library. It sheds
new lights on the readings of Hitler and on his technics how to read
a book. He played the role of the ideal reader of Schoppenhauer,
nevertheless his remarks destroy the image of the contemporary
Hitler-cult, mainly if we see how he read Ernst Jünger, Richard
Wagner, or Paul de Lagarde, and how he reread his Mein Kampf. Hitler
is presented in this book as a reader and it verifies the explication
of his personality (Hitler as follower of Wagner, Hitler as
philosopher, Hitler as crazy, Hitler as clever politician, Hitler as
hero): it gives the picture of a half-educated gangster. As a kind of
explication of the success of the nazism and that of the Hitler myth,
the book tries to show the gnostic character of the phenomenon. This
is a warning to the static views of the traditional historiography.
