1. Kosmos Jubiläumschronik 1964

Anniversary Chronicle 1964

"We are someone again" - with this phrase, Chancellor Ludwig Erhard, as the father of the economic recovery, captured the growing self-confidence
of the Germans in 1964. While the great powers promote a peaceful coexistence, the Federal Republic of Germany is not willing to subordinate the German question to détente policy. They insist on the claim to sole representation and refuse to recognize the GDR. The Beatles, the Rolling Stones, and other bands spark a mass movement among the youth with their innovative pop music, seeking to break free from societal constraints and searching for new ideals of life.

6. Kosmos Jubilee chronicle 1944

Anniversary Chronicle 1944

1944 is the year of total war. Not only Europe but the entire world is caught in the whirlwind of war events. On July 20, Hitler is supposed
to die from a bomb. Hitler, mentally and physically a wreck, uses the assassination attempt as an opportunity for a large-scale purge against the resistance and opponents of the Nazi regime. Cultural life is practically halted; only radio and cinema – with films like "The Fire Tongs Bowl" or "Great Freedom No. 7" – are meant to strengthen the German people's resolve.
