德國出版商再版希特勒自傳引發爭議
Adolf Hitler's manifesto Mein Kampf is expected to be published in Germany next year for the first time since the death of the World War II dictator held responsible for the Holocaust.
With the expiration of a 70-year copyright hinged on the 1945 suicide death of the anti-Semitic ruler, the manuscript enters the public domain, and plans to publish an annotated version of the two-volume work in German have sparked public controversy.
Jewish groups say the work, which outlines the development of Hitler's anti-Semitism, is dangerous and should never be published in Germany again. But the publishers of Hitler, Mein Kampf. A Critical Edition say their version surrounds the hate speech of Adolf Hitler with context, explaining how the most famous villain of the 20th century formed his ideas and pointing out the flaws and untruths in his arguments.
Mein Kampf has not been published in German since 1945, out of respect for the millions of Jews, Roma, and others who died in Nazi concentration camps during the war. It has been available in other languages, published in other countries.
The work rose in popularity as Hitler gained power, reaching sales of some 12 million copies in 18 languages by his death in 1945.預計阿道夫·希特勒宣言式自傳《我的奮鬥》明年將在德國出版發行。自這個發動第二次世界大戰並製造種族大屠殺的獨裁者死後，這將是德國首次出版《我的奮鬥》。
反猶太人統治者希特勒於1945年自殺身亡，至今70年的版權有效期期滿，手稿進入公共領域，然而，有關出版兩卷評註本《我的奮鬥》的計劃引發了德國公衆的爭議。
猶太人組織說，《我的奮鬥》是一本危險的書，永遠不應在德國再版。但出版商說，《希特勒，我的奮鬥。評論版》提供了希特勒仇恨言論的背景，解釋了20世紀這個最臭名昭著的惡徒如何形成他的想法，並指出其論點的荒謬。
出於對二戰期間死於納粹集中營的數百萬猶太人、吉普賽人和其他人的尊重，德國自1945年以來一直沒有出版《我的奮鬥》。不過，一些國家用其他文字出版過這本書。
隨着希特勒權力上升，《我的奮鬥》獲得普及。在1945年希特勒死時，該書已有18種文字版本，共售出約1200萬冊。
