Taylor What kind of architecture was considered appropriate for the German renaissance that allegedly was occurring under Na- tional Socialism? What was the ideal or typical "German" style? What concepts and values should genuinely "German" architecture express? Historians have suggested that German leaders were generally indifferent to architecture; Taylor ar- gues, however, that it was intended as government propaganda for national unity. In support of his thesis he reviews the speeches, conversations, and diaries of Nazi leaders, as well as relevant published works of the time.
