About Michael FitzGerald
Expertise
I am an expert in German history between 1918 and 1945, particularly with regard to the Nazi era. I am also very knowledgeable about most areas of philosophy (I have an honours degree in the subject) and am able to answer questions on that subject too. In addition, I am very knowledgeable about poetry. One of my hobbies is also politics, mainly British and European though I follow the US political scene as well. Another one is the history of crime and punishment and British social history (the two often overlap!) I am willing to answer questions on all the above issues.
Experience
Author of two published works, 'Storm Troopers of Satan,' an account of the lunatic fringes of Nazi ideology, and 'Adolf Hitler: A Portrait,' a biography of the German dictator. 'Adolf Hitler' was published in July 2006 by the top history publisher Spellmount and was named historical biography of the month by the Good Book Guide. I correspond with Ian Kershaw, Peter Stachura, Jeremy Noakes, Roger Moorhouse and Stan Lauryssens. I have undertaken research for radio, television, newspapers and magazines

Subject: Totalitarianism
Question
Hi,
I am a third year student studying at Exeter University, im writing my final dissertation on literary attitudes to totalitarianism.
I saw your quote from Giovanni Gentile,- 'Nothing beyond the state; nothing against the state; nothing outside the state', Could you tell which works this is originally from and possibly a page number as i can't seem to find it and need the reference for my bibliography?
Thanks very much
-Max
Answer
Hi Max,
This quote from Gentile comes from a work he co-authored with Benito Mussolini, entitled 'Fascism, Doctrine and Institutions,' published in Rome by Ardita Publishers in 1935, pp. 7-42.
Unfortunately though my German's pretty good I can't speak or read Italian and have only read Gentile's work in translation!
Hope this helps
Kind regards
Mike
