The Codex Mendoza, composed in 1541, was an attempt to memorialize Aztec culture, capturing knowledge of a world that was swiftly disappearing. Let’s flip through its pages together.

An interesting old booklet we came across in the National Library in

Fairly simple and straightfoward rules from 1914 on how POWs were to be treated.

Issued after the start of and victories in that year, which resulted in several tens of thousands of Austro-Hungarian soldiers being taken prisoner. Some 30 000 of them would be escorted with the Serbian army through in 1915. and handed over to Italians on the coast.

@strandbeutel @Bundesregierung @Mareike2405 @histodons @claasgefroi Die feiert sich ja gerne und rühmt sich ihrer langen Geschichte. Jetzt also auch für die Sozialgesetzgebung. lässt dabei das Sozialistengesetz (1878-1890) geflissentlich aus, das die SPD in ihrer Vorgängerorganisation faktisch lahmgelegt hatte und sie deshalb gar nicht aktiv daran beteiligt war. Upsi.

@sebastianschroeder @histodons Wäre sicher gut das demnächst nur noch an Themenabenden mit historischer Einordnung zu senden. Dramaturgisch etc. waren die Nazi-Filme oft erschreckend gut. Und interessant auch, was im Kino dann doch so alles "durchging". Zara Leander's und Johannes Heesters' Leinwandcharaktere waren nicht gerade "brave Deutsche", sondern eigentlich zu hedonistisch und sexy. Manchmal brauchte vielleicht sogar das NS Regime eine Ablenkung von den eigenen Idealen?

@sebastianschroeder @histodons PS: Davon, die Filme gar nicht mehr zu zeigen, halte ich nicht viel. Ich fand es als Schülerin/Studentin schwierig, dass viel über "Nazi Propaganda" gesprochen wurde, dass man sich aber kein Bild machen konnte. Erst später konnte ich "Die Goldene Stadt" etc. sehen & besser verstehen, was den NS Film ausmachte. Ich war auch für die kritische Edition von "Mein Kampf" dankbar. Neonazis kommen an verbotenes Material auf eigenen Wegen: Internet & Flohmarkt im Ausland.

The AHA was alarmed to learn that our written testimony opposing SB 83, which was on the agenda to be heard at the meeting of the Ohio House Higher Education Committee on December 6, was dismissed along with the rest of the submissions from interested parties. We urge Ohio residents to contact your representative now to express opposition to the bill. @histodons https://www.historians.org/news-and-advocacy/action-alert-contact-your-representatives-now-to-oppose-ohio-sb-83
