has abstract	Karl Albert Schleunes (* 21. April 1937 in Kiel (Wisconsin); † 15. Mai 2021) war ein US-amerikanischer Historiker. Er war bis 2010 Professor an der University of North Carolina at Greensboro (UNCG) und wurde dann emeritiert. (de) Karl Albert Schleunes (April 21, 1937 – May 15, 2021) was an American historian of the Holocaust and the German Empire. He was a professor at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro (UNCG). Schleunes obtained his Bachelor in 1959 at Lakeland College (Wisconsin), and his Master's at the University of Minnesota in 1961, where he also received his Ph.D. in 1966. From 1965 to 1971 he taught at the University of Illinois at Chicago. Since then he was at the UNCG. In 1999 he was a guest lecturer at the Kaplan Centre of the University of Cape Town. Karl Schleunes was born in Kiel, Wisconsin the son of Henry Schleunes (1892–1968) and Adelia Eickoff (1896–1984) of Schleswig. In August 1964, he married Brenda Jean Pursel, founder and artistic director of the Touring Theatre of North Carolina. The 1970 publication of Karl Schleunes's The Twisted Road to Auschwitz was a landmark in Holocaust historiography. His interpretation of the Final Solution as a product of unplanned evolution rather than premeditated 'grand design' triggered a debate that has energized Holocaust scholarship over the past two decades. The reissue in paperback of this true classic is a most welcome event to anyone teaching or studying the Holocaust." – Christopher Browning, author of The Final Solution and the German Foreign Office In the 1960s, along with a handful of European and American scholars, Karl helped establish a new field in modern historical studies. His ground-breaking research in the Berlin Document Center which holds materials captured from the Germans, provided him with evidence to produce an exhaustive analysis of the policies which led to the murders of six million Jews. Schleunes worked on a book project that looks at the same problems as The Twisted Road to Auschwitz but is drawn from the fifty years of information garnered since the launching of his book published a half century ago and, in fact, still in print. As Karl said, “I learned a lot in fifty years; the book didn’t learn anything.” Karl will be remembered for his many years of workshops sponsored by the NC Council on the Holocaust Teacher Workshops teachers across the state and as the honoree of the Schleunes Lectures which annually bring a well-known Holocaust scholar to speak at Greensboro College, an event sponsored by Richard and Jane Levy.
