Germans in the Antarctic[electronic resource] /by Cornelia Ludecke. - Cham :Springer International Publishing :2021. - xii, 284 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm.

Chapter 1: The Race for the Last White Spot on the Map: The First German South Polar Expedition (1901 to 1903) -- Chapter 2. Meteorology and Mutiny: The Second German South Polar Expedition (1911 to 1912) -- Chapter 3. The Discovery of Neu-Schwabenland: The Third German South Polar Expedition (1938/39) -- Chapter 4. Separate and United Paths: German Antarctic Research from the End of World War II until Today -- Chapter 5. The Future of German Antarctic Research.

While science was usually at the forefront of German Antarctic expeditions, research into the Southern Polar region always had a political or economic component, whether it was about resource use or securing areas of influence. Cornelia Ludecke presents the course of the three German Antarctic expeditions from 1901-03, 1911-12 and 1938/39 with their partly dramatic turns and twists and provides insights into everyday life under extreme conditions. She also evaluates unpublished material from the archives and private estates of the expedition members. She looks at the expeditions from a scientific and political point of view and also deals with the myths associated with the "Schwabenland" expedition during the National Socialist era. Finally, the author describes German south polar research after World War II, which took different paths in the German Democratic Republic and in the Federal Republic of Germany, and gives an outlook on future research. For the first time, this book presents the history of the Germans in Antarctica in a factual and informative way for the general public. With numerous pictures, some of which have never been published before.
