Specificatii
Reluctant Accomplice is a volume of the wartime letters of Dr.
Konrad Jarausch, a German high-school teacher of religion and
history who served in a reserve battalion of Hitler's army in
Poland and Russia, where he died of typhoid in 1942. He wrote most
of these letters to his wife, Elisabeth. His son, acclaimed German
historian Konrad H. Jarausch, brings them together here to tell the
gripping story of a patriotic soldier of the Third Reich who,
through witnessing its atrocities in the East, begins to doubt the
war's moral legitimacy. These letters grow increasingly critical,
and their vivid descriptions of the mass deaths of Russian POWs are
chilling. They reveal the inner conflicts of ordinary Germans who
became reluctant accomplices in Hitler's merciless war of
annihilation, yet sometimes managed to discover a shared humanity
with its suffering victims, a bond that could transcend race,
nationalism, and the enmity of war. Reluctant Accomplice is also
the powerful story of the son, who for decades refused to come to
grips with these letters because he abhorred his father's
nationalist politics. Only now, late in his life, is he able to
cope with their contents--and he is by no means alone. This book
provides rare insight into the so-called children of the war, an
entire generation of postwar Germans who grew up resenting their
past, but who today must finally face the painful legacy of their
parents' complicity in National Socialism.
