The Baden-Wuerttemberg history museum in Stuttgart has plans for 16 screenings of the ultimate Nazi hate movie, Jud Suess, as part of an exhibition showing how Nazi propaganda worked. The 1940 costume melodrama was used to stir up hatred of Jews in 21 nations. It was a favourite of Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels. "The film is an overwhelming success. The audience was seething. This is the first really anti- Semitic film," he triumphed in his diary in 1940.

Joseph Goebbels, Minister of Propaganda, and Otto Dietrich's Press Office translated this fanatical vision into a coherent cautionary narrative, which the Nazi propaganda machine disseminated into therecesses of everyday life. Calling on impressive archival research, Jeffrey Herf recreates the wall posters that Germans saw while waiting for the streetcar, the radio speeches they heard at home or on the street, the headlines thatblared from newsstands. The Jewish Enemyis the first extensive study of how anti-Semitism pervaded and shaped Nazi propaganda during World War II and the Holocaust, and how it pulled together thediverse elements of a delusionary Nazi worldview. Here we find an original and haunting exposition of the ways in which Hitler legitimized war and genocide to his own people, as necessary to destroy an allegedly omnipotent Jewish foe.In an era when both anti-Semitism and conspiracy theories continue to influence world politics, Herf offers a timely reminder of their dangers along with a fresh interpretation of the paranoia underlying the ideology of the Third Reich.

The hideaway villa used by the Nazi propaganda chief Joseph Goebbels to entertain his lovers is to be put up for sale. The rundown, empty Wald-hof estate, set in woodland 40 kilometres north of the city, has become a burden for the Berlin council. The propaganda minister, in charge of film-making, built a cinema on the premises and invited a string of film starlets to the house, including his mistress Lida Baarová. Other glamorous visitors included the Third Reich actresses Zarah Leander and Marika Rökk. It was not only play for Goebbels. He ... wrote his most important speech, calling for Total War, in the study of the house during 1942-1943.
