Nathan Stoltzfus

Nathan Stoltzfus , born 1954, is an associate professor of history at Florida State University noted for his work on protest during the Nazi era,^[1] particularly the Rosenstrasse Protest that has sparked debate and discussion about the possibility and impact of protest in Nazi Germany.^[2] He was educated at Goshen College (B.A. 1978) and Harvard University (PhD, 1993), and has authored or edited five books.^[3]

Books

One of his book, Resistance of the Heart: Intermarriage and the Rosenstrasse Protest in Nazi Germany^[4] was co-recipient of the Fraenkel Prize in Contemporary History (1993). German and French translations carried a foreword by German Foreign Minister Joschka Fischer.^[5] In Britain it was a New Statesman "Book of the Year". Die Zeit called it the "standard work" on the protest, which was the center of a little Historikerstreit.

His other works include Social Outsiders in Nazi Germany^[6] (Princeton University Press, 2001), co-edited with Robert Gellately; Shades of Green: Environmental Activism around the Globe^[7] (Rowman & Littlefield, 2006), co-edited with Doug Weiner and Christof Mauch, Courageous Resistance: The Power of Ordinary People^[8] (Palgrave MacMillan, 2007), co-authored with five professors of history, political science, and sociology; Nazi Crimes and the Law^[9] (Cambridge University Press, 2008), co-edited with Henry Friedlander.^[3]
