Potato beetles and silkworms were used as weapons of war, pigs were used in propaganda, and dog breeding served the Nazis as a model for their racial theories. Paradoxically, some animals were put under special protection while some humans were simultaneously declared unworthy of living. Ultimately, the ways in which Nazis conceptualized and used animals—both literally and symbolically—reveals much about their racist and bigoted attitudes toward other humans.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Drawing from diaries, journals, school textbooks, and printed propaganda, J.W. Mohnhaupt tells these animals’ stories vividly and with an eye for everyday detail, focusing each chapter on a different facet of Nazism by way of a specific animal species: red deer, horses, cats, and more. \u003ci\u003eAnimals under the Swastika\u003c\/i\u003e illustrates the complicated, thought-provoking relationship between Nazis and animals.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction: The World behind the Wire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 Blood Ties\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 Digestive Affinities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3 Drawing the Curtain on Larval Stages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 \u003ci\u003eMorituri\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5 Raufbold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6 Not Really Stroganoff\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConclusion: Until the Last Dog Is Hung\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcknowledgments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNotes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks Cited\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndex\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"University of Wisconsin Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52681285206296,"sku":"9780299338008","price":19.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/animals-under-the-swastika-hardback-9780299338008","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
