I knew Mein Kampf was maliciously translated.

http://www.hitlerlibrary.org/Mein-Kampf-Translation-Controversy.pdf

For fuck's sake, does anyone have a legitimately translated version of Mein Kampf?
>>
>>70406634
learn german, faggot

>>70406702
1. I'd have to learn the entire fucking language.
2. The German used in Mein Kampf is completely different.
3. You're not white, faggot.
>>
I'm quite interested now. The whole piece seemed kind of put together to me the first time I read it, but maybe that's because he had thought of a bunch of ideas to cover before writing it. Either way, I always find odd how mein Kampf had kind of a different narrative when compared to his speeches.

Apparently this one is the most accurate translation.

The issue is that languages have certain barriers between them. It's obvious that you won't get the same impression reading the translated version.

You subhuman baboon. You literal nigger.

How dare you speak, you swarthy jungle monkey. How dare you open your big lipped, rim encrusted, menthol cigarette smelling mouth?

You are human trash, Diego Tyrone LeShawn de Maradona. Universally despised, derided and mocked. Your nationality and skin tone offers no hope to the world that South America can ever prosper. Crawl back in to the Brazilian jungle you came out of, you literal orangutan.

I hope you decide to sail your grandfathers skip to the Falklands and rape some sheep, as is in the negroes nature. It would still be the whitest pussy you ever had. Give Nigel and Robert a chance for some target practice, your sole use to the world. Argentinians obsession with a few windswept islands in the Atlantic is hilarious but sad. Coincidentally its the only worthwhile contribution Argentina has made to the medical field. The MUH LAS MALVINAS sentiment in the average negro Argentinian is both an early warning sign of autism in children, and early on set Alzheimer's in adults.

Take your black hairy fingers off your keyboard, and never talk about the human species again, you mockery of our supposed shared ancestor.. No amount of olive oil and wheat flour slabbed on your face every morning will make you white. It's about as delusional of an idea as your daydreams of European heritage.

You nigger.

You make Bolivia look like a beacon of civilisation.

You are the Baltimore of South America.

Go fertilise the pampas with you and your families corpses, its the best you can hope for in life. For the first time in your life, nigger, you have a job making food for beings vastly superior to yourself. Uruguayan cattle. Coincidentally, it would be the first time an Argentinian "man" provided for a family.

Die, Diego. Nao one would miss you. Except for Australian Aboriginals, who now would have no one to make them look good.

My grandpa bought one in 1943, still got it on my shelf. Assume the translation is not malicious given that it was done by quislings/the germans themselves.

Can you check what version it is? Who are the translators so I can look it up.

>>70409775
All you have to do is check antique book stores
It'll be easier to find here than it will be in Europe since all of your governments were dicks to the Germans after the war and censorship for Hitler anything started as early as 1948.
Here people didn't give a fuck
Regardless there's a really good argument that it wasn't Hitler's words at all and instead a pet project by his secretary and a few other Nazis who used Hitler's name and image to promote it(which did wonders for its sales)

Apparently the Ford one is complete shit, according to some hardcore Stormfront guys.

The Stalag version seems to be the one they recommend.

Apparently Murphy's version is a complete rewrite to appeal to intellectuals. It's not that his translation was inaccurate, but it was heavily edited to make it more "hardcore" and that essentially causes you to lose the original vibe of what Hitler was saying.

Here's the critique.
http://ostarapublications.com/mein-kampf-stalag-edition-complete-officially-authorised-english-translation-ever-issued/

>This official translation is not to be confused with the “James Murphy” or “Ralph Mannheim” translations, both of which were edited, abridged and ultimately unauthorised. The Murphy and Mannheim editions both left out major sections of text, and contained long, clunky, badly-translated and almost unintelligibly long sentences.

In sharp contrast, the only authorised “Stalag” edition contains none of these complicated and unnecessarily confused constructions, and is extremely easy to read, as anyone familiar with the other versions will immediately notice. Most importantly, this only authorised edition contains the full text of the original German—and none of the deliberately-inserted racial pejoratives used in the Murphy and Mannheim versions (words which Hitler never actually used in the original).
>>
So whats the verdict on the best English language translation? I'm keen to finally read it.
>>
>>70411029
>>70411033
The Stalag version is what the consensus seems to be.
>>
>>70411031
I heard that the POW Mein Kampfs were changed to be more palatable for Americans by toning down some things. You think that's true?
>>
>>70410055
This. It's more like the ideas and thoughts of Rudolf Hess than Adolf Hitler.
>>
>>70411033
>>70411069
Yeah I read the first few chapters in it, then lost my spot when my laptop got fucked. Stalag is the one most hardcore /pol/lacks recommend. I've also heard good thing about the Ford translation.

He was also wary of world jewry and was given an award by Nazi Germany, so I wouldn't think he'd deliberately translate it wrong.
>>
>>70411155
That's true, but if Hitler himself authorized it, don't you think that Hitler shared Hess' views and didn't mind having them being attributed to himself?

In a sense. It's not fully Hitler's writing, but it's Hitler's thoughts.
>>
>>70411069
>>70411196
Thanks bros, Stalag it is.

Hes Argentinian, not Welsh.
>>
>>70411281
That's very true too. Hitler did say that he wished it had never been printed without a better editing. He just wanted it to be easier to comprehend.
>>
>>70411029
Yep. Translated by the NSDAP itself.
>>
Is it largely changed? Or is it just basic translation errors from a foreign language?
>>
>>70411355
Here's the link. It's from a popular Stormfront member. I downloaded it and it's the same as the other version I found on 4+4chan.

>>70411642
Oh sweet. Much obliged, friend.
>>
From what I see it seems like if you read the wrong translations Hitler comes off an an autist and it's hard to read. Most of it's incomprehensible.

Just compare these
> And so we National Socialists consciously draw a line beneath the foreign-policy tendency of our pre-War period.
What?
>So, we National-Socialists must scratch out the foreign policy practices of the pre-war period.
Makes sense
It's like they are trying to make it hard to read to discourage people from finding out what Hitler actually said.

Draw a line beneath sounds like he is highlighting it as a good thing. Literally gives the opposite impression to the second version.
>>
>>70411892
From the Stalag version

>Therefore, we National Socialists have purposely broken away from the line of conduct followed by pre-war Germany in foreign policy.
>>
>>70412079

Up for interpretation, confusing, thus better clarified. To me, it sounds like "draw a line beneath" as in "a line we shouldnt cross"
>>
>>70412056
Shut up, Sweden.

>>70412079
>draw a line beneath
It actually makes sense.

"draw a line under"

It doesnt need an explanation, its essentially the same thing I said.

Like drawing a line on Syrian chemical weapons.

Drawing a line under nuclear armaments in Iran.

Thought lines such as those.
>>
>>70412198
>>70412288
Oh fair enough then I guess. It just mustn't be that common of an expression where I live.
>>
>>70413174

Well, thats why I said its a bit confusing and should be changed. Its ambiguous, it could easily mean what you meant too and they both sound about as appropriate, slightly different from the exact perfect use.
