I think the most obvious mistake and the one that the author is pointing out is how much von Papen and President Hindenburg underestimated Hitler. They saw him as someone that could be a puppet leade ...

I think Emily put it really well by saying that a fair and equal system of law is at the core of any country. In Germany during this time, the legal system was suffice to say, far from fair and equal ...

I usually like to be the devil’s advocate in cases like these, but unfortunately I also agree with the general consensus. I think what was most interesting is the continual failure of these revolutio ...

I definitely do not think that Germany acted in the best way or on the behalf of the Austria-Hungary empire. Stoessinger backs this up by pointing out the Kaiser’s attitude when he received the teleg ...

Will Freedberg, I'm going to try to respond to your post as best as I can, but forgive me if take some liberties with it. I thought your question about the residents downstream from Mystic river gett ...

Hello,

So, I'm gonna start of with the Joan Didion reading which I did first and then I'm gonna try to come back later about the other reading (I'll try to answer Knaid's question!). So I thought ...
