Ancient Myths and Nazi Propaganda
, Davis Truman unveils the shocking ways Adolf Hitler and the Nazi elite co-opted classical mythology, archaeology, and pseudo-history to fabricate the myth of Aryan supremacy. Drawing from original documents, Nazi-era publications, and modern scholarship, this groundbreaking work exposes how ancient symbols and legends were weaponized to create a false historical narrative, one that fueled genocide, war, and the darkest chapter of the twentieth century.
From misused Greco-Roman iconography to twisted interpretations of Indo-European migration theories, Truman traces the roots of Nazi ideology through a manipulated lens of antiquity. He explores how fabricated "evidence" of ancient Aryan civilization was used to justify racial purity laws, territorial expansion, and the cultural erasure of entire populations.
With compelling clarity and academic precision,
offers a powerful warning: when history is rewritten to serve an ideology, the consequences are catastrophic.
Perfect for readers of history, politics, WWII studies, and anyone seeking to understand how ancient and modern myths can be used to distort the truth and justify atrocities.
