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. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eDefying Hitler\u003c\/i\u003e 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. \u003ci\u003eDefying Hitler\u003c\/i\u003e 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.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlexandra Lloyd\u003c\/b\u003e is a tutor and researcher in German studies at the University of Oxford.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Bodleian Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50863548039442,"sku":"9781851245833","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_747e6009-07d0-495b-8790-197c5027779d.jpg?v=1737640566","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/defying-hitler-the-white-rose-pamphlets-9781851245833","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
