Did German professors of the humanities have to tell themselves lies about their regime's activities or its victims to sleep at night? Did they endorse the regime? Or did they look the other way, whether out of deliberate denial or out of fear for their own personal safety? \u003ci\u003eThe Betrayal of the Humanities: The University during the Third Reich\u003c\/i\u003e is a collection of groundbreaking essays that shed light on this previously overlooked piece of history.\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe Betrayal of the Humanities\u003c\/i\u003e accepts the regrettable news that academics and intellectuals in Nazi Germany betrayed the humanities, and explores what went wrong, what occurred at the universities, and what happened to the major disciplines of the humanities under National Socialism.\u003cbr\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe Betrayal of the Humanities \u003c\/i\u003edetails not only how\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003eindividual scholars, particular departments, and even entire universities collaborated with the Nazi regime but also examines the legacy of this era on higher education in Germany.
