Ernst von Salomon, die Landvolkbewegung und die „Neuordnung der deutschen Dinge”

Abstract

Based on two of Ernst von Salomon’s literary documents on the Rural People’s Movement ["Landvolkbewegung"] (1928–1932), this paper will trace the thinking of national revolutionary intellectuals and charismatic Landvolk leaders. Their clear rejection of National Socialism is just as evident as their retreat into a specific form of inner emigration.
