    Während seines langen Lebens erlebte Fritz Stern, wie sich Deutschland veränderte: Von der Weimarer Republik zum „Dritte Reich", dann Bundesrepublik und DDR und schließlich das wiedervereinigte Deutschland nach 1989. Als einer der bedeutendsten Historiker des 20. Jahrhunderts verbindet er gekonnt die eigene Erinnerung als jüdischer Emigrant mit der Geschichtsschreibung, wobei immer die „deutsche Frage" im Fokus bleibt. Das Hörbuch wird ergänzt durch Interviews mit und Reden von dem Autoren, die im NDR erschienen sind.Fritz Stern (1926-2016) war ein amerikanischer Historiker und mehrfacher Preisträger mit deutschen Wurzeln, der in Breslau aufwuchs. Auf der Flucht vor den Nazis wanderte er mit seiner jüdischen Familie 1938 in die USA aus, wo er in New York Geschichte studierte und schließlich Professor wurde. Seine Schwerpunkte lagen auf der Geschichtsschreibung sowie auf der Geschichte des modernen Europas, hauptsächlich Deutschland im 19. und 20. Jahrhundert.

    During the twelve years of Hitler's Third Reich, very few Germans took the risk of actively opposing his tyranny and terror, and fewer still did so to protect the sanctity of law and faith. In No Ordinary Men, Elisabeth Sifton and Fritz Stern focus on two remarkable, courageous men who did-the pastor and theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer and his close friend and brother-in-law Hans von Dohnanyi-and offer new insights into the fearsome difficulties that resistance entailed. (Not forgotten is Christine Bonhoeffer Dohnanyi, Hans's wife and Dietrich's sister, who was indispensable to them both.)From the start Bonhoeffer opposed the Nazi efforts to bend Germany's Protestant churches to Hitler's will, while Dohnanyi, a lawyer in the Justice Ministry and then in the Wehrmacht's counterintelligence section, helped victims, kept records of Nazi crimes to be used as evidence once the regime fell, and was an important figure in the various conspiracies to assassinate Hitler. The strength of their shared commitment to these undertakings-and to the people they were helping-endured even after their arrest in April 1943 and until, after great suffering, they were executed on Hitler's express orders in April 1945, just weeks before the Third Reich collapsed.Bonhoeffer's posthumously published Letters and Papers from Prison and other writings found a wide international audience, but Dohnanyi's work is scarcely known, though it was crucial to the resistance and he was the one who drew Bonhoeffer into the anti-Hitler plots. Sifton and Stern offer dramatic new details and interpretations in their account of the extraordinary efforts in which the two jointly engaged. No Ordinary Men honors both Bonhoeffer's human decency and his theological legacy, as well as Dohnanyi's preservation of the highest standard of civic virtue in an utterly corrupted state.

    This monograph argues that the best way to describe the character of Imperial Germany after 1878 is "illiberal" - voicing a commitment in mind and policy against further concessions to democracy. It describes how German society embraced the move towards totalitarianism fostered by illiberalism.
