Who edited the book on which the essay, The Rhetoric of Hitler's "Battle" focuses ?
The Rhetoric of Hitler's &quot;Battle&quot; The Rhetoric of Hitler's "Battle" is an influential essay written by Kenneth Burke in 1939 which offered a rhetorical analysis of Adolf Hitler's rise to power in Germany. Much of Burke's analysis focuses on Hitler's "Mein Kampf" ("my struggle"). Burke (1939; reprinted in 1941 and 1981) identified four tropes as specific to Hitler's rhetoric: inborn dignity, projection device, symbolic rebirth, and commercial use. Several other tropes are discussed in the essay, "Persuasion" (Burke: 1969).
Heinrich Heim Heinrich Heim (15 June 1900, Munich – 26 June 1988, Munich) was a lawyer and NSDAP "Ministerialrat" who transcribed and co-published with Werner Jochmann transcripts of Adolf Hitler's informal talks, known colloquially as "Hitler's Table Talk". Heim's version of the table talk was published in 1980 under the title "Adolf Hitler Monologe im Führerhauptquartier 1941-1944". Heim's edition relied upon the original German notes, recorded by Heim from 5 July 1941 to mid March 1942, and August–September 1942. According to German historian Clemens Vollnhals, from a "source-critical point of view, the most reliable version of the "Table Talk" remains Werner Jochmann's edition of 1980."
