MY colleague, Prof. Karin Doerr of Concordia University, and I are seeking readers for our latest ms., Nazi-Deutsch. It contains the most complete lexicon of Nazi-Deutsch terms ever compiled and it’s more a dictionary than an encyclopedia.There are 2500 terms covering 180 ms. pages. We have completed this section and written preliminary introductions. There is a long bibliography that need not be read, of course.

A book like this has been meticulously researched but there is always room, alas, for error. And though we do not need a copyediting kind of reading, we do need readers who know the field and could perhaps add some terms we inadvertantly missed or clarify others. In other words, we need an overall review/read. All suggestions will of course be carefully considered.

Perhaps a reader would also consent to write his/her own brief Introduction for the book. We do have a publisher interested but we are also open to suggestions about other publishers.

Collegially, Robert Michael

We have suggested this to these intrepid lexicographers —

WHY not send the dictionary to the famous Professor and “expert” Richard Evans, right. Oh, damn! He didn’t know that daran glauben müssen is Nazi slang for having to die. And he didn’t know that Joachim von Ribbentrop was Reich foreign minister, and that Otto Abetz was Hitler’s ambassador in France, and … never mind. Yes, never mind, his fee is only $200,000 (that is what Lipstadt paid him as an expert in the High Court trial).

Alles Gute,David Irving
