Résumé:In the early 19th century, similarities between the so-called Indo-European languages began to be viewed through the lens of a primitive people ( Urvolk) who lived in a primitive homeland ( Urheimat) where they spoke a primitive language ( Ursprache). This was true in Germany above all. This simplistic interpretation first arose as an alternative myth to the Bible. Starting at the end of the 19th century, it was revived and magnified by race theorists. It also went on to find its natural extension in Nazism, which likewise incorporated a “Germanophile” or “Aryanophile” esoteric current that was present in both Rosenberg and Himmler. However, Hitler, who did not believe in the idea of a “Jewish race,” kept his distance from it.
