The black hole of history sent on October 08, 2015 (21:45) by Ronda. 75 comments, 2364 views.

at 13mm, 1/20 f/8.0, ISO 400, hand held. Nuremberg, Germany.

Norimberga, Baviera ... agosto 2015 ... Ho esitato a lungo prima di decidermi a pubblicare le immagini: la materia e l'argomento che questi scatti ritraggono sono forse quanto di più nefando e abnorme l'umanità, nella sua storia recente, abbia dovuto, e in parte purtroppo voluto, conoscere ed affrontare. Al Dokumentationszentrum Reichsparteitagsgelande di Norimberga (Centro documentazione presso il complesso dei raduni del partito del regime) vanno in scena la Follia, il Delirio, il Male, quello assoluto, nichilista e farneticante dell'ideologia nazista. L'intera ala nord della Kongresshalle, il mastodontico edificio frutto di menti megalomani, costruito solo in parte, e che negli intenti dei suoi progettisti avrebbe dovuto superare il Colosseo quanto a stile e dimensioni, è allestita una mostra permanente dal titolo quanto mai eloquente: "Fascinazione e Terrore". Un'esposizione completa e coinvolgente, interattiva e multilingue, ripercorre nei tetri e freddi locali del sito simbolo di quella che fu la città più intimamente coinvolta nell'allucinazione nazista e nei suoi macabri e fanatici riti, la genesi, l'ascesa, il culto, il potere, l'orrore, la distruzione e l'oblio del partito nazionalsocialista tedesco. Se ne esce inevitabilmente provati, scossi, svuotati nell'anima e nella ragione, ma al contempo consapevoli di quanto rapido e breve possa essere il passo dall'ideale alla follia, di quanto terribile e potente possa essa divenire quanto incontra e si compenetra col male, di come entrambi, la Follia e il Male, possano facilmente ammaliare l'essere umano, singolo grumo di materia pensante o massa indistinta non pensante. L'ideologia nazista non considerava l'uomo, il singolo, la persona, l'emozione di un cuore; essa si nutriva di simboli, di razze, di catarsi collettive e con la stessa voracità con cui divorava le sue mostruosità ugualmente le vomitava sul mondo e sulla storia. E la storia coltiva da sempre, instancabile, il vizio di ripetersi ... (focale eq.FF 21mm) #BiancoeNero ***

“ Remember serves ... „

Absolutely Ciska, and is also, in my view, an unavoidable duty, beyond any belief or conviction.

A "do not like" because "like" would sound so bad.

Comments very welcome friends, thank you!

“ I selectively darkened area of ??the tracks „

I am sincere Max! I tried, but the result, given my lack of skill in PP, was visibly artifact, so I made the opposite choice on the high lights to accentuate the contrast zone.

Best wishes, Simon :-P

I fully agree with what you wrote in the caption, both in tone and content, up to individual words you used to bring this reality. The photo, which seems to be a nightmare, expresses well the folly of those times.
Good boy!
