A Demon-Haunted Land: Inhalt, Einordnung und bibliografische Details

A Demon-Haunted Land von Monica Black ist ein Titel aus dem Bereich Sachbuch, der thematisch klar positioniert ist und für Leserinnen und Leser mit Interesse an diesem Fach- oder Themengebiet besonders relevant sein kann. Mit dem Untertitel Hexen, Wunderheiler und die Geister der Vergangenheit im Nachkriegsdeutschland wird bei A Demon-Haunted Land noch deutlicher, in welche Richtung das Werk inhaltlich argumentiert und welche Schwerpunkte gesetzt werden. Die Kurzbeschreibung von A Demon-Haunted Land zeigt, welche Inhalte Leserinnen und Leser erwarten dürfen: In the aftermath of World War II, a succession of mass supernatural events swept through a war-torn Germany. As millions were afflicted by a host of seemingly incurable maladies (including blindness and paralysis), waves of apocalyptic rumors crashed over the land. A messianic faith healer rose to extraordinary fame, prayer groups performed exorcisms, and enormous crowds traveled to witness apparitions of the Virgin Mary. Most strikingly, scores of people accused their neighbors of witchcraft, and found themselves in turn hauled into court on charges of defamation, assault, and even murder. What linked these events, in the wake of an annihilationist war and the Holocaust, was a widespread preoccupation with evil. While many histories emphasize Germany's rapid transition from genocidal dictatorship to liberal democracy, A Demon-Haunted Land places in full view the toxic mistrust, profound bitterness, and spiritual malaise that unfolded alongside the economic miracle. Drawing from a set of previously unpublished archival materials, acclaimed historian Monica Black argues that the surge of supernatural obsessions stemmed from the unspoken guilt and shame of a nation remarkably silent about what was euphemistically called "the most recent past." This shadow history irrevocably changes our view of postwar Germany, revealing the country's fraught emotional life, deep moral disquiet, and the cost of trying to bury a horrific legacy
