Meanings
- uncountableThe study of Adolf Hitler (1889–1945), dictator of Germany from 1933 to 1945.
According to the present state of Hitlerology, it seems certain that until the end of 1943 Hitler was not insane, at least not in the clinical sense of the word.
1967, Laslo Havas, translated by Kathleen Szasz, “June”, in The Long Jump, London: Neville Spearman, page 1062 more examples
(Were Hitler’s gramophone items labelled a, b, c, d, etc., any statement of his could be reported in a brief formula, such as cdmhf or adjkbr; while the frequency, incidence, variations, and permutations of these marks would yield useful charts for Hitlerology).
1941 July–September, L[ewis] B[ernstein] Namier, “Coloured Books”, in The Political Quarterly, volume XII, number 3, page 274This was one way of calling Stalin a barefaced liar without actually naming him. Experts in Hitlerology may note several minor flaws in this version, but basically it is quite close to the reality.
1978, James P[reston] O’Donnell, “Epilogue⸺1945 and After”, in The Bunker: The History of the Reich Chancellery Group, Boston, Mass.: Houghton Mifflin Company, →ISBN, page 372
