Autobiography of Adolf Hitler
Autobiography of Adolf Hitler At 6:30 p.m. on the evening of April 20, 1889, he was born in the small Austrian village of Braunau Am Inn just across the border from German Bavaria. Adolf Hitler would one day lead a movement that placed supreme importance on a person's family tree even making it a matter of life and death. However, his own family tree was quite mixed up and would be a lifelong source of embarrassment and concern to him. His father, Alois, was born in 1837. He was the illegitimate son of Maria Anna Schicklgruber and her unknown mate, which may have been someone from the neighborhood or a poor millworker named Johann Georg Hiedler. It is also remotely possible Adolf Hitler's grandfather was Jewish. Maria Schicklgruber was said to have been employed as a cook in the household of a wealthy Jewish family named Frankenberger. There is some speculation their 19-year-old son got her pregnant and regularly sent her money after the birth of Alois. Adolf Hitler would never know for sure just who his grandfather was. He did know that when his father Alois was about five years old, Maria Schicklgruber married Johann Georg Hiedler. The marriage lasted five years until her death of natural causes, at which time Alois went to live on a small farm with his uncle. At age thirteen, young Alois had enough of farm life and set out for the city of Vienna to make
European history - Adolf Hitler.
A strategy used by Adolf Hitler in order to gain power was his control over the media. The censorship of newspapers and radio played a significant role towards shifting the public's opinion. The media provided a channel for Hitler's propaganda, which influenced the public and managed to win their support in his rise to power. But Hitler's control over the media alone was not sufficient in the rise of Hitler as Nazi ideas, and promises contributed significantly towards winning the public. The censorship of freedom of speech and political opposition was another factor, which influenced Hitler's success. Therefore, it can be stated that it is true to a certain extent that Hitler's success was due to his control over the media, but other factors also contributed towards his success. "Importance of propaganda in influencing public opinion and regarded control of the media and the arts as vital in elimination of the opposition" said historian Andrew Boxer. The above stated quote was a strategy well understood by Hitler. Hitler saw the significance of propaganda that a ministry of propaganda was formed in the Nazi regime in order to have control of the people's minds. According to historian Terry Morris, propaganda and the cinema in Joseph Goebels's view, was one of the most modern and scientific methods of influencing the public. Newspapers, radio and
Hitler and the Jews.
INTRODUCTION I am going to do some assignment about Hitler and the Jews. I will first of all talking about bullying since the history of the Germans and the Jews is in case of extreme bullying. Bullying basically means a wilful intention to hurt, threaten or frighten someone. Bullying is divided into three parts which can be physical or verbal or both. Bullying includes the groups of insiders and outsiders. An insider is usually a person a person who is well known by the others and got respect from them. An insider could be a clever student, a smart and rich person, or a person who is well known by the others. Meanwhile, outsider is the one who usually being bullied by the insiders. Outsider is usually a person who doesn't well known by the others. They could be a new person from other place, a different race or colour or religion or someone who can't afford to buy expensive things. They usually feel like outsider because they are so different from the others. They usually feel lonely and scared. Outsiders were usually the victim by the insiders which are more powerful than them. Bullying could be either physical or verbal or both. Physical bullying is a physical assault, beatings and violent attacks including gangs. This could be kicking, punching, arm twisting or pushing. And verbal bullying is like leaving people (usually the outsiders) out. Verbal bullying also could
Hitler Vs. The Undesirables.
Hitler Vs. The Undesirables The Nazis believed the superiority of the Aryan Race. He saw Jews and other minority groups such as Homosexuals, gypsies or mentally handicapped as people who did not fit his Aryan ideology. Hitler wanted to breed an all powerful army, who had general features such as blue eyes and blond hair. Apart from the Aryan ideology each group posed in the Nazi's eyes a threat. Anti-Semitic view had been breeding within Germany for a long time. Hitler had hated the Jews for a number of years. Hitler did not like the fact Jews tended to be well educated and therefore held well-paid professional jobs or ran successful stores and businesses. In Hitler's years when he was a tramp in Vienna he became obsessed by the fact that Jews ran many of the most successful businesses, particularly the large department stores. This offended his idea of the superiority of the Aryans. The Nazis had a particular fear for the Gypsies because they did not come in any category as satisfactory. Hitler was determined for them not to make any contact with Aryans, because he had a fear that the Gypsies would distort his picture of a master race. Homosexuals were no use to Hitler therefore, he despised the m. They were no help in the creation of the master race therefore; he wanted to annihilate them as well. Finally, the mentally handicapped, had no use at all. They were not able to
The rise of Hitler
History Assignment -Nadia Nooreyezdan Grade 12 Q1. To what extent was the rise to power of one right wing, single party ruler, the result of previous political problems? A1. January 1933 marked Hitler's appointment as Chancellor and his subsequent disruption of the precautious balance in Europe, finally resulting in the cataclysmic World War II. However, one must question Hitler's unsteady rise to power, a combination of convenient circumstances as well as his own strategies, and which could be more predominant. It is believed that a series of circumstances contributed greatly to Hitler's sudden popularity and appointment as Chancellor, that he had little or no hand in. With Germany nearing defeat in the First World War, the Kaiser, in an effort to gain US support, put up the puppet Prince of Baden, which did not convince US to sign any treaty. For neutral US help Germany needed to establish a democracy which came to be known as the Weimar Republic. With the establishment of the Weimar, came an array of political groups ranging from radical leftist groups like the Social Democrats (SPD) and the KPD to centre and moderate left and right parties like DDP, Centre and DVP, to extreme right wingers such as the DNVP and the NSDAP. Different coalitions were formed between these parties that led to clash of ideologies. Along with this, the KPD and NSDAP both worked separately
The rise of Hitler
Adam McEvoy Robinson In 1933 Adolf Hitler came to power in Germany. The right wing government was completely the opposite of the communist ideas of the left wing government that ran Russia.. Hitler had been a soldier in the First World War he earned the highest honour in Germany, The Iron Cross. Hitler had despised the Treaty of Versailles and was appalled about his government signing the Treaty. Hitler believed that the treaty crushed German economy and left the people of the country starving. Hitler found a way he could come to power and reduce unemployment and many other things that the German people needed in the country. Hitler had not been in power before and the German people trusted him, believing his ideas about what Germany would be when it returned to its former glory. Many people in Germany were jealous of the Jews and their prosperity and thus began to blame the Jews for everything that went wrong in their country, leading to the hatred of the Jews. Known as Anti-Semitism. The Jews, in their adopted countries began being persecuted. One such example of Anti-Semitism was in Russia where the Jews were forced to live in ghettos. In most cases the ghettos were unprotected and vulnerable to attack. Many Germans blamed the Jews for the loss of the war and accused them of trying to over-take the world. After the Nuremberg Laws, which severely restricted the Jews.
Adolf Hitler - A biography
HITLER INTRODUCTION Hitler, Adolf (1889-1945), German political and government leader and one of the 20th century's most powerful dictators, who converted Germany into a fully militarized society and launched World War II. Making anti-Semitism a keystone of his propaganda and policies, he built up the Nazi party (see National Socialism) into a mass movement. For a time he dominated most of Europe and North Africa. He caused the slaughter of millions of Jews and others whom he considered inferior human beings. II EARLY YEARS Hitler was born in Braunau, Austria, on April 20, 1889, the son of a minor customs official and a peasant girl. A poor student, he never completed high school. He applied for admission to the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna but was rejected for lack of talent. Staying in Vienna until 1913, he lived first on an orphan's pension, later on small earnings from pictures he drew. He read voraciously, developing anti-Jewish and antidemocratic convictions, an admiration for the outstanding individual, and a contempt for the masses. In World War I, Hitler, by then in Munich, volunteered for service in the Bavarian army. He proved a dedicated, courageous soldier, but was never promoted beyond private first class because his superiors thought him lacking in leadership qualities. After Germany's defeat in 1918 he returned to Munich, remaining in the army until
Hitler - Women and Youth
WOMEN: Hitler also changed the lives of the women in Germany. Under the rule of Weimar, Germany had been a very decadent society. So, Hitler was keen to get away from that. He believed that the place for women in Nazi Germany could be summed up by the three Ks - Kinder, Kirche und Kuche, which meant Children, Church and Cooking. Also, he encouraged young women to get married and have large families of racially pure children (Aryans). Hitler wanted Germany's birth rate to increase as it was falling, and the Nazis wanted more soldiers. In order to make this seem desirable to women, he employed many tactics. The "Law for the Encouragement of Marriage" was passed in June 1933. This gave all newly married couples a loan of 100 marks. For every child born, the family could keep 25% of the loan. This marriage loan system worked, and the number of marriages rose from 0.5 million in 1932, to 0.75 million in 1934. It did not, however, result in more babies, with most couples continuing to have two. The Government also introduced family allowances. Another way of encouragement was awarding medals to the most fertile mothers each year, with 5 earning a bronze, 6 or 7 earning a silver, and 8 or more earning a gold. Women were also subjected to propaganda and education, and studied subjects such as domestic science, physical fitness, and racial studies. However, a "Law for the Prevention
La Alemania sobre Hitler
La Alemania sobre Hitler Un artista fallado y el cabo anterior del ejército en la primera Guerra mundial, Adolf Hitler odió los capitalistas y los liberales, así como judíos y otros llamados. El ya había tratado de derribar el gobierno en el infortunado "la cuartelada del vestíbulo de cerveza". Esto tentativa abortiva temprana en la revolución ocurrió cuándo Hitler (entonces presidente del partido), el derechista Ludendorff general, y varios partidarios nazi asaltaron un vestíbulo de cerveza de Múnich y a líderes locales forzados a declarar su apoyo para el "las tentativas nacionales de nazi de revolución." para tomar el Ministerio bávaro de la Guerra se derrotó rápidamente, sin embargo, y Hitler fue sentenciado a cinco años en la prisión para la traición. Liberado después de servir menos que un año, él volvió a juntarse inmediatamente el NSDAP, y en 1926 otra vez llegó a ser su líder. Hitler utilizó su público que habla obsequios para ganar a partidarios para la causa nazi, agarrando cada oportunidad de denunciar el gobierno impopular de Weimar como débil y decadente. El propuso también dando los trabajos de judíos-quien él pintó como malvado-a merecer a alemanes. A cambio de restaurar Alemania's la gloria y el honor anteriores, él pidió la lealtad y la obediencia incondicionales de todos alemanes patrióticos. Para reforzar su mensaje,
Was Hitler a Weak Dictator?
Was Hitler a Weak Dictator? For many historians, especially those writing immediately after the Second World War, Hitler's leadership and control of political life in the Nazi Reich was strong and absolute. This view is perhaps best emphasised by N. Rich when he commented that "The point cannot be stressed too strongly: Hitler was master in the Third Reich." However, this view has come under increasing attack from many, who have shown a number of areas of weakness in Hitler's rule. This has led a number of historians, most notably H. Mommsen, to argue that Hitler was "in some respects a weak dictator." Undoubtedly, both these contrasting views have elements of truth. As a result it would seem that a more correct standpoint is the one advocated by I. Kershaw. Kershaw accepts that Hitler did have a number of important weaknesses, but overall these failings should not detract from the fact that overall he was a strong dictator. Therefore, Hitler was strong dictator with weaknesses. It is hardly surprising that many commentators initially took it for granted that Hitler was a strong dictator. There is no doubt that he was the guiding and dominant light of the Nazi Party, whose position as supreme leader was unchallenged within the Party. Hitler had supplanted Anton Drexler, the founder of the Nazi Party, as leader of the Party in the early 1920s. He had survived the threat to
