Hitler's Table Talk

Hitler's Table Talk

Hitler's Table Talk is a term or title belonging to certain impromptu conversations and statements made by Adolf Hitler, which were recorded by various individuals.

The most important record of Hitler's remarks, usually at dinner with other Nazi leaders, was made at the instigation of Martin Bormann, who edited them from notes taken by Heinrich Heim, from July 1941 to March 1942. Subsequently Henry Picker took notes from 21 March 1942 until 31 July 1942. After the war, Picker published his version of the conversations. Bormann's edited transcript was published by Francois Genoud in 1952. Hugh Trevor-Roper published the first English edition in the following year, revising it in later editions.

Some of Hitler's conversations were also recorded by Alfred Rosenberg's official Werner Koeppen, who had been instructed to keep Rosenberg informed of Hitler's thoughts by forwarding records of his conversations. Most of these were deliberately destroyed in 1945 but David Irving located a record of Hitler's remarks from September to November 1941.
