What is the German Propaganda Archive?

It is a growing collection of English translations of propaganda material from Nazi Germany and the German Democratic Republic. The GPA got started on a whim. I had some translations of material I had done for my students, and thought it might be worth the trouble to put them on the web. Calvin College then decided to encourage faculty to use the Web by providing student assistance. Robert Veenstra, a Calvin College student, joined me in February 1998 in working on the project. He did a general site redesign, and put many images on the site. Calvin student Julie Vugteveen also worked with me to build the GPA during 1999. During summer of 2000, Katie Lynch, a Calvin student, worked with me preparing translations and pages, supported by a grant to Calvin College from the McGregor Foundation.
