The link between Hitler's Third Reich and European royalty has gone largely unexplored due to the secrecy surrounding royal families. Now, in Royals and the Reich, Jonathan Petropoulos uses unprecedented access to royal archives to tell the fascinating story of the Princes of Hesse and the important role they played in the Nazi regime. Princes Philipp and Christoph von Hessen-Kassel, great-grandsons of Queen Victoria of England, had been humiliated by defeat in WWI and, like much of the German aristocracy, feared the social unrest wrought by the ineffectual Weimar Republic. Petropoulos shows how the princes, lured by prominent positions in the Nazi regime and highly susceptible to nationalist appeals, became enthusiastic supporters of Hitler. Prince Philipp, son-in-law to the King of Italy, became the highest-ranking prince in the Nazi state and developed a close personal relationship with Hitler and Hermann Göring. Prince Christoph was a prominent SS officer and head of one of the most important intelligence agencies in the Third Reich. In return, the princes made the Nazis socially acceptable to wealthy, high-society patrons. Prince Philipp even introduced Göring to Mussolini at a critical stage in the Nazi Party's development and later served as a liaison between Hitler and the Italian dictator. Permitted access to Hessen family private papers and the Royal Archives at Windsor Castle, Petropoulos follows the story of the House of Hesse through to its tragic denouement--the princes' betrayal and persecution by an increasingly paranoid Hitler and prosecution and denazification by the Allies. Royals and the Reich is a startling and unique portrait of the vanished world of prewar aristocrats and a royal family caught in one of the most tumultuous periods in history.

During the Napoleonic Wars the region of Hesse was divided between Hessen-Kassel and Hessen-Darmstadt. Under Napoleon's patronage, in 1806 Hessen-Darmstadt received all remaining imperial possessions within its borders and was elevated to a Grand Duchy. That same year, Hessen-Kassel, under Imperial Elector Wilhelm I, was dissolved and incorporated into Jerome Bonaparte's Kingdom of Westphalia, resulting in significant political, administrative and sartorial changes. This richly illustrated book details the organization, campaigns, uniforms, and colours and standards of the forces of Hessen-Darmstadt and Hessen-Kassel from 1792 to Napoleon's defeat in 1813.

In this critical edition, Leibniz submits his metaphysics of substance and form, concomitance and expression, freedom and necessity to the searching Socratic interrogation of Arnauld In this critical edition, Stephen Voss establishes the text of the magnificent Socratic correspondence between Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz and Antoine Arnauld, provides an accurate English translation of the French text, and includes full apparatus helpful to student and scholar alike. The philosopher, physicist, and mathematician Leibniz presents the philosopher and theologian Arnauld with a unique new metaphysics and hones his ongoing thinking on the critical responses he receives. The result is a dialogue capable of illuminating metaphysical thought even now.

With their first, self-titled album for Liberty, The Petards from the state of Hessen in Germany had produced a real hit. The year 1969 meant for Klaus and Horst Ebert, Roger Waldmann and Arno Dittrich above all a wealth of appearances; at that time there was probably no band harder working in Germany than The Petards. In September 1969 producer Sigi Loch called the band back to Munich's Trixi Ton Studio to record the next album. And as one would expect from the band, the musicians came to the s

Neu -Im Jahr 1753 wurde Johann Heinrich Tischbein d. Ä. von Landgraf Wilhelm VIII. von Hessen-Kassel zum Hofmaler ernannt und blieb es auch während der gesamten Regierungszeit Friedrichs II. (1760-1785). Obwohl Tischbein bei Regierungsantritt Wilhelms IX. bereits krank war, blieb er auch unter ihm Hofmaler, und der Landgraf richtete auf Schloss Wilhelmshöhe eine ihm posthum gewidmete Gemäldegalerie ein. Aufträge erhielt der Maler jedoch nicht allein von Mitgliedern des Kasseler Hofs, er schuf auch zahlreiche Porträts für Fürst Karl August von Waldeck und Pyrmont und stattete dessen Residenz in Bad Arolsen mit Gemälden aus. Darüber hinaus porträtierte Tischbein seine eigene Familie und war auch bei bürgerlichen Auftraggebern jenseits von Hof und Residenz gefragt. Neben Porträts zeigt der Katalog Landschaftsgemälde von Johann Heinrich Tischbein d. Ä. Darunter befinden sich wichtige Ansichten des Schlosses auf dem Weißenstein (dem Vorgängerbau von Schloss Wilhelmshöhe in Kassel) und der das Schloss umgebenden Parkanlagen des 18. Jahrhunderts. 160 pp. Deutsch

In this book Hessen presents an uncompromising defense of the right of corporation to exist and function freely. He offers a reinterpretation of the nature and historic origins of corporate enterprise, and a spirited challenge to the current widespread condemnation of giant corporations. Today Ralph Nader is recognized as the most vocal critic of the corporation. Hessen outlines and examines Nader's criticisms—namely, that giant corporations victimize shareholders, crush smaller competitors and overcharge consumers. He also analyzes Nader's proposals for remedial legislation: Nader wants Congress to require giant corporations to make fundamental changes in their internal structure and operating methods, such as stripping corporate officers of their authority to make decisions, and breaking up any corporation whose share of the market exceeds 12 percent. Among the other issues Hessen analyzes are: how did the idea originate that corporations are "creatures of the state" and is this idea valid? Are giant corporations "private governments," and are the officers self-perpetuating oligarchs? Is "corporate democracy" a worthwhile goal? Why are existing state incorporation laws permissive, and do they wrongfully favor corporate officers at the expense of shareholders? Is federal chartering of corporations necessary, as Ralph Nader claims? Do giant corporations possess monopoly power and should the antitrust laws be reinforced?

In 1940, while the Germans occupied Holland, fourteen-year-old Edith van Hessen was filling her diary with the intimate, carefree details of a typical teenager's life — thoughts about boys, school, her family, her friends, her future. By 1942, as Edith was contemplating her first kiss, the Germans had begun to escalate their war against the Jews. Soon this bright, fun-loving girl was grappling with one of the most unfathomable events in human history. Edith's family — assimilated Dutch Jews — were caught in the cross fire of the Holocaust, and Edith began a bitter struggle to survive.In this extraordinary work, Edith Velmans weaves together revealing entries from her diaries with reminiscences and letters smuggled between family members during the occupation. Edith's Story stands as a profoundly important addition to the literature of the Holocaust, documenting one girl's grief, loss, courage, and ultimate triumph over devastating tyranny and despair. For as Edith is hidden in plain sight by a Christian family, we witness how a young woman must deny, bargain with, and finally face the horrors of war — and how, confronting evil as a child, Edith survives to become an extraordinary woman.
