The reason source A and B conflict is that source B is a Propaganda painting by a strong NAZI but source A is a writing by not so strong NAZI as he left the party and Germany in the 1930s. So Source B would be naturally more pro-NAZI than source A. Evidence of this is given in source B where Hitler and the NAZI flag are much brighter than the rest of the painting showing them to be in a higher power than the rest of the people in the picture. Were as in Source A it says Hitler "elbowed his way through the crowd" even though he had a heavily armed body guard showing him to be very small and insignificant.
Question 3
They are both useful but Source D is the most useful as it give information on outside the Burgerbraukeller as well as inside it where as source C shows you only what happened inside the Burgerbraukeller. Source C shows us that there were around 800 men an that these men consumed a large amount of alcohol also it shows that there was a bit of a riot and a fight as 98 chairs, 143 tankards, 80 glasses and 2 music boxes where broken. Also it shows that these people weren't perfect as 148 sets of cutlery were stolen. Source D talks about the fact that "The National Revolution" had begun. It also talks about the amount of men occupying the hall and the fact that they were heavily armed. It also says that the provisional government will be formed in Munich that night and that troops and police are marching the streets under the swastika. Source D also talks about the fact that Hitler was a blind cripple in a military Hospital.
Question 4
Source F shows Hitler to be a hero but source G shows him to be cowardly. Source H seems to be pretty impartial it is not pointing a finger it's very neutral were as the other to giving Hitler a different perspective. Source F seems to make Hitler seem like he wasn’t fleeing but saving a boy but the other sources don’t mention a boy. Source G says he drove off to the mountains and source H has don’t decided what happened whether it was an act of cowardice or an act of an experienced soldier. Sources G and H disagree with the time of the March. Source G states the march took place at night and source H claims it took place in the morning at about 11 O'clock but Source F does not mention a time. They all agree that Hitler ran but as I explained they all have different reasons for this. None of the Sources State who fired the first shot they seem pretty impartial to that cause.
Question 5
Hitler was trying to put across an Impression of pride, Power, and a love for the 'fatherland'. He does this by posing with the great hero and General of the 'Betrayed' German army showing that he (As was popular opinion) did not agree with the treaty of Versia. As this considered a great betrayal of the German people. He also wants to put himself and the party as people of Germany for the people Germany. He also tried to put across the opinion that he was not bothered by this trial only that it was an injustice to him and Germany, as he is a man who represents Germanys greater interests.
Question 6
I believe these events greatly increased the Influence of Hitler and the Nazi party and Hitler, as these events and the repercussions created immense Publicity for Hitler and the party. Seeing as neither Hitler nor Drexeler was mentioned on any of the party posters before these events it also gave people a cause to 'fight' for. This was also an experience for both He and the party to learn from.
The result was that in the trial Ex-Commander of the German armies Ludendorf was declared innocent by the court while Hitler admitted to being guilty of trying to over through the current Weimar Parliamentary System. Hitler then went on to try and show how this was not a crime but a justifiable necessity. The German people found his arguments to be very convincing. This gave Hitler a national audience where he could 'preach' his political views. Hitler was sentenced only 5 years (although he only served 9 months of this) as the judge was right wing and lenient to Hitler's cause. While in prison Hitler authored his own book 'Mein Kampf' (Translation: 'My struggle'). This set out his and the party's Ideas and beliefs. This 9-month period also gave Hitler a chance to reflect on the apparent failure of the putsch (he believed it to have failed to accomplish what he wanted but it still boosted his and the partys influence). From then on the Nazis would use legal power to win votes.
They would win votes rather than take power by force.
Unbeknownst to them but the events of these few days would keep having significant repercussions in the future for example. On the tenth anniversary of the Nazi party the official Vom Rath succumbed to his wounds after being shot by a 17 year old polish Jew in retaliation for the 10,000 Polish Jews being sent over the border (of which included his mother and farther). He was actually trying to kill the ambassador but Vom Rath was the first official he saw. These actions triggered a huge amount of anti Semitic action.
In conclusion the statement "The events in Munich of 8/9 November 1923 greatly increased the influence of Hitler and the Nazi party in Germany" is true as it gave Hitler and the party a great amount of publicity and a figure head to command there campaign (Hitler). It also gave Hitler a huge audience and a platform to send out his beliefs and convince a large amount of people that he was a true nationalist only wanting the best for his Farther Land.
