Añadir al carritoHardcover. Condición: Very Good. In Yiddish. 404 pages. 216 x 155 mm. Re-bound, but original front board's illustration is here on new front board. With photos and facsimiles. On February 27, 1933 at approximately 9:00 P.M. pedestrians near the Reichstag (the German Parliament building) heard the sound of breaking glass. Soon af…ter, flames erupted from the building. It took hours to quell the fire, which destroyed the debating chamber and the Reichstag's gilded cupola. Police arrested an unemployed Dutch construction worker, Marinus van der Lubbe, who was outside the building, panting, sweaty and with firelighters in his possession. A few hours later, on February 28, Hindenburg invoked Article 48 and the cabinet drew up the "Decree of the Reich President for the Protection of the People and State." The act abolished freedom of speech, assembly, privacy and the press; legalized phone tapping and interception of correspondence; and suspended the autonomy of federated states, like Bavaria. That night around 4,000 people were arrested, imprisoned and tortured by the SA. Five days earlier, on February 22, Hitler had used his powers as chancellor to enroll 50,000 Nazi SA men (aka storm troopers) as auxiliary police. Although the Communist party had won 17 percent of the Reichstag elections in November 1932, and the German people elected 81 Communist deputies in the March 5 elections, many were detained indefinitely after the fire. Their empty seats left the Nazis largely free to do as they wished. Later that year, a sensational criminal trial got under way. The accused included van der Lubbe, Ernst Torgler (leader of the Communist Party in the Reichstag) and three Bulgarian Communists. As the trial in Germany proceeded, Willi Münzenberg, a German Communist, together with other Communists, undertook their own investigation of the fire. The research resulted in the publication of The Brown Book on the Reichstag Fire and Hitler Terror. It included early accounts of Nazi brutality, argued that van der Lubbe was a pawn of the Nazis, and that the Nazis orchestrated the fire to consolidate political power. The book became a bestseller, translated into 24 languages. Wilhelm "Willi" Münzenberg was a German Communist, political activist and publisher. He was the first head of the Young Communist International in 1919-20, established the famine-relief and propaganda organization Workers International Relief in 1921, was a leading propagandist for the Communist Party of Germany (KPD) during the Weimar Era, but later grew disenchanted with the USSR because of Joseph Stalin's Great Purge of the 1930s. After Stalin wanted him arrested for treason, he left the KPD and in Paris became a leader of the German émigré anti-fascism and anti-Stalinist community until forced to flee the Nazi advance into France in 1940. Arrested and imprisoned by the Daladier government in France, he escaped prison camp. A few months later his remains were found in a forest near the commune of Saint-Marcellin, France. The circumstances pointed to murder but it is unclear whether the killers were the Russians or the Germans. Both wanted him dead.
