Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. The White Rose (die Weisse Rose) was the name given to a resistance circle at the University of Munich in the early 1940s whose members secretly wrote and distributed anti-Nazi pamphlets. At its heart were undergraduate students, including Hans Scholl, Sophie Scholl, Christoph Probst, Alexander Schmorell, Willi Graf, and Professor Kurt Huber, all of whom were executed in 1943 by the Nazi regime. The youngest among them was just twenty-one years old. Defying Hitler presents the White Rose resistance pamphlets in full, translated by modern-day students at the University of Oxford. These translations are the result of work by undergraduate students around the same age as the original White Rose authors. This volume outlines the story of the group's formation and sets their resistance texts within their political and historical context. A series of brief biographical sketches, archival photographs, and excerpted letters trace each member's journey towards action against the National Socialist state. Defying Hitler will serve as a fitting tribute to the bravery of the White Rose, which is commemorated not just in Munich but throughout Germany and beyond. Outlines the story of the White Rose group and sets their resistance texts within their political and historical context. Includes a series of brief biographical sketches, including excerpts from their letters, that trace each members journey towards action against Hitler and the National Socialist state.

Square folio (259 x 237 mm), pp. [x], 261, [1]; 130 colour illustrations, many of which full- or double-page; red boards, title gilt to spine, photographic dustjacket.Richly illustrated throughout, this book provides a fascinating history of the development of bookbindings from Roman times to the present day.Bindings have been an essential and often beautiful component of books since the codex form was invented two thousand years ago. They make books work, but they also provide an opportunity for binders to display their skills. Until book trade processes were industrialised in the nineteenth century, every binding was a unique handcrafted object, no matter how simple or elaborate it now looks from the outside. Bindings have been made of all kinds of materials calfskin, parchment, vellum, ivory, even silver and embellished using many different techniques, to satisfy the wishes of owners from students to kings. The ways in which they were produced and decorated have evolved steadily over time, and many countries have their own distinctive traditions. Bindings may testify to the taste and social status of wealthy connoisseurs, or to the economic necessities of ordinary households. Because they can often be dated and localised, they also give us information about the histories of individual volumes.This lavishly illustrated book provides a fascinating history of the development of bookbindings from Roman times to the present day. Almost all the examples are chosen from the shelves of the Bodleian Library, showcasing the outstanding collection of historic bindings to be found there.David Pearson is a leading authority on the history of books, after a lifetime spent working with them, writing about them, and owning them.
