Title: Children's literature in Hitler's Germany
Description: "Professor Kamenetsky examines the changing state of children's literature and folklore in Germany under the impress of Nazi cultural policy between 1933 and 1945. Beginning with a historical introduction highlighting the trends in literary criticism which proved amenable to Nazi ideology, she traces the impact and limitations of censorship upon the school libraries, reading curriculum, and publishing environment. Within the broader "folkish policy," she focuses on efforts to propagandize children's literature by distorting existing German values and traditions"--Back cover.
