Enlightenment—Aufklärung in German, Lumières in French—is more an idea than a period. But it is an idea that took hold in a particular historical context of revolutionary scientific advances, increasing economic and social freedom, rising literacy and prosperity, and a greater willingness to challenge the authoritarianism of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In The Wisdom of the Enlightenment, author Michael K. Kellogg points to 1637, the year that gave us Rene Descartes’ landmark inquiry into truth, as the beginning of a period that radically changed individual human thought and collective societal action. From Descartes’ assertion of “I think, therefore I am,” to the philosophies of Enlightenment thinkers like Moliere, Spinoza, Voltaire, Hume, and Kant, this book charts the new and revolutionary philosophies at a time when progress seemed possible across the whole range of human knowledge and endeavor. In sweeping aside tired superstitions and applying a new scientific methodology, the Enlightenment ideas of progress through free exercise of reason ushered us into the modern world. This engaging and comprehensive survey of Enlightenment thoughts and thinkers is a celebration of the faith that all problems are solvable by human reason.

This book examines the overlooked topic of the influence of anti-Bolshevik, anti-Semitic Russian exiles on Nazism. White émigrés contributed politically, financially, militarily, and ideologically to National Socialism. This work refutes the notion that Nazism developed as a peculiarly German phenomenon: it arose primarily from the cooperation between völkisch (nationalist/racist) Germans and vengeful White émigrés. From 1920-1923, Adolf Hitler collaborated with a conspiratorial far right German-White émigré organization, Aufbau (Reconstruction). Aufbau allied with Nazis to overthrow the German government and Bolshevik rule through terrorism and military-paramilitary schemes. This organization's warnings of the monstrous 'Jewish Bolshevik' peril helped to inspire Hitler to launch an invasion of the Soviet Union and to initiate the mass murder of European Jews. This book uses extensive archival materials from Germany and Russia, including recently declassified documents, and will prove invaluable reading for anyone interested in the international roots of National Socialism.

Narodowy socjalizm jest powszechnie uważany za rdzennie niemieckie zjawisko. Tymczasem wybitny historyk Michael Kellogg, wykorzystując bogate materiały archiwalne z Niemiec i Rosji, w tym także niedawno odtajnione dokumenty, stawia sensacyjną tezę, że ideologiczne fundamenty partii nazistowskiej były stworzone przez niemieckich nacjonalist�w w ścisłej wsp�łpracy z żądnymi zemsty na bolszewikach rosyjskimi emigrantami, skupionymi w konspiracyjnej organizacji Aufbau.Autor tropi spiski, kt�re miały obalić znienawidzone rządy republiki weimarskiej i odebrać władzę w Rosji z rąk bolszewik�w. Udowadnia, że głoszone przez Aufbau tezy o zagrożeniu ?żydowskim bolszewizmem? na trwałe połączyły się z demagogią Hitlera i w konsekwencji doprowadziły do przeprowadzenia ataku na Związek Sowiecki i rozpoczęcia masowej eksterminacji europejskich Żyd�w.
