Weekly “what are you reading” Thread #39 :marseyreading:

To discuss your weekly readings of books, textbooks and papers.

I'm back reading Vikings by Neil Price, I left it by half a couple of months ago now I'm close to finishing it. I also started “The R*pe of Europe” by Lynn H. Nicholas, is a book about the nazi censorship and theft of art during WW2 and the years preceding it. So far I only read the first chapter but is hilarious how Nazi definitions of “degeneracy” came down to Hitler's personal tastes (or lack of it) in art, he hated cubism, expressionism, impressionism, etc. One particular artist, Emil Nolde was an expressionist painter and a nazi sympathizer, he spent years licking nazi asses only to be cucked by them and forbidden to paint because “expressionism is degenerate”. I also thought the whole “Degenerate Art Exhibition” (which included paintings by Picasso and Van Gogh) was hilarious considering it got the double of attendance as the “Good German Art exhibition”, chuds eternally BTFO :#naziseethe:. I think I might write an effort post on it after finishing that book.
