Edition of the Record Book of the Chief of Staff of the Chief of the General Army Office from May 1938 to 31.12.1943 and the Memoranda of the Director of the Army`s Armaments Effort and the Commander of the Replacement Army Colonel General Friedrich Fromm

2007年9月开始的编辑项目的筹备和计划（观察、转录、收集和制定更一般的编辑原则）的目标是编辑1938年至1943年期间的主要军事历史资料。该项目的完成需要进一步的资金，以确保对这一来源的历史批判性评论和相关材料的进一步研究。这23卷手写日记提供了对交战的“赖希”的民事和军事领导的独特和亲密的见解。由于在帝国战争博物馆，伦敦的偏远位置，这个来源长期被忽视，其重要性没有得到承认。只有通过申请人在DFG资助的Friedrich Fromm将军的传记（Kroener，Der starke Mann im Heimatkriegsgebiet，2005）的背景下进行的研究，科学界才意识到该记录簿。这份文件的状态，它主要是写在一个困难的速记和四个不同的日记记录，但最重要的是，其来源价值，由条目的真实性远远高于可比的来源，如所谓的哈尔德日记（哈尔德，Kriegstagebuch，3卷，1962-1964），使转录，评论和出版的第二次世界大战的史学迫切需要。连同弗洛姆将军最重要的备忘录，谁早预测了崩溃的武器和枯竭的物质和人力资源的德国，该版本将使一个杰出的来源组组织准备战争和战争。她将获得一个评论和内容注释系统，辅以简短的传记和广泛的名称和地点索引以及缩略语清单。该版本将为第二次世界大战的历史提供新的动力，从而成为以前被忽视的领域。

The objective of the preparations and plans of the edition project (sighting, transcription, collection and the development of more general editing principles) that started in September 2007 is the edition of a central military-historical source from the period between 1938 and 1943. A further funding is requested for the completion of the project to ensure the historical-critical commentary of this source and the associated development of the material for further research.The 23 handwritten diary volumes provide a unique and intimate insight into the civil and military leadership of the warring `Third Reich´. Due to the remote location at the Imperial War Museum, London, this source was long overlooked and its importance not recognized. Only through the research of the applicant in the context of the DFG-funded biography of Colonel General Friedrich Fromm (Kroener, Der starke Mann im Heimatkriegsgebiet, 2005) the scientific community became aware of the record book. The state of this document, it was written mostly in a difficult shorthand and of four different diary recorders, but above all, its source value, by the authenticity of the entries far above the comparable sources such as the so-called Halder diary (Halder, Kriegstagebuch, 3 volumes, 1962-1964), make the transcription, commentary and publication to an urgent desideratum of the historiography of World War II. Together with the most important memoranda of General Fromm, who early predicted the collapse of the arms and the drying up of the material and human resources of Germany, the edition will make an outstanding source group for organizing the preparation for war and warfare. She will be provided with a critical and a content annotation system, supplemented by short biographies and an extensive names and places index and a list of abbreviations. The edition will give new impulses to the history of World War II and thus a previously neglected area.
