Once upon a time the Himmlers were just a normal German family, middle-class, hard-working, well-educated. There were three brothers, Gebhart, Heinrich, and Ernst. Heinrich grew up to become the head of Hitler’s SS, mastermind of the concentration camp system, and chief perpetrator of the Holocaust. When Katrin Himmler, Heinrich’s great-niece, was 15, one of her schoolmates asked during a history lesson if she was related to the Himmler. "Yes," she stammered, at which there was a deathly hush in the classroom and the teacher, embarrassed and unsure, quickly moved the lesson on. As she grew older, Katrin gave her family history a wide berth, but married to an Israeli whose family was confined to the Warsaw Ghetto and with a young, half-Jewish son, she realizes that she cannot evade the past so easily. Katrin Himmler’s cool but meticulous examination of the Himmler story reveals—in all its dark complexity—the gulf between the "normality" of bourgeois family life and the horrors perpetrated by one member and a more nuanced portrait of Heinrich himself emerges—not a lone evil executioner, but a middle-class family man, loved and fully supported by his respectable German family.

二战从某种意义上来说是希特勒的纳粹党利用了整个德意志民族对全欧洲的复仇情绪所发动的战争。了解了一战和一战后的德国,就会对纳粹上台的必然性有所领悟。这本书展现了一个血统纯粹的纳粹家族的悲剧,虽然可说是罪有应得,但读来仍让人唏嘘。 即使没有海因里希.希姆莱,也会...
评分一个人的行为取决于其思想、家庭教育、民族背景、文化等多种因素。而后人怎么看待历史呢,近距离接触过的人总会有更清晰的认知,而数代之后,就如同教科书中的文字,变得固化、“正统”。 一个人是否应该背负其家庭和民族所带来的痛苦和耻辱呢,我大概有所理解,或许你可以忽视...
评分 评分读历史,反思过去,展望未来 旅游时,我喜欢跟在导游后面,听他们介绍各朝代历史,我喜欢去博物馆,看那些熟悉又陌生的古代物品,我喜欢走入历史,走入过去,并不代表我活在过去,而是反思,然后展望未来。 人物传记讲究真实,客观,《希姆莱史弟》作者是卡特琳•希姆莱...
评分昨日深夜,当我翻读完卡特琳·希姆莱《希姆莱兄弟》一书之时,迫切地想写些什么,因为这本书不同于我曾读过的每一本有关纳粹党的书或电影。同时,这书让我产生了重温电影《辛德勒的名单》的想法。今日梦醒,处理完所有的琐事,便找来了《辛德勒的名单》的资源,一个人一台笔记...
