Adolf Hitler Personality Analysis

Adolf Hitler once said, “Demoralize the enemy from within by surprise, terror, sabotage, and assassination. This is the war of the future.”(Adolf Hitler Quote). Guided by these words, Hitler continued to annihilate the Jews and anyone that opposed to him or his government. As a child, he was influenced by many and belittled by many more. Hitler’s desire for prestige and dominance turned him into the most powerful and nefarious man in German history.

Funder (2007), states that personality is a combination of how people think, feel and behave, with the psychological mechanisms behind those patterns. Therefore, it can be defined as consistent behaviour patterns and processes which happen in the mind of the individual. These behaviour patterns suggest that there are individual differences and that personality is consistent. The combination of these areas, and confliction of these is what psychologist’s try to understand.

Many of the actions that Hitler enacted are remembered as the horrors of the 20th century. This man is compared to the devil at times for the acts he committed against humanity. I believe that Hitler's Evil adulthood is partially from the influences of his childhood. As a child, Hitler became exposed to anti-semitic political ideas from friends he grew up with. As a kid these ideas were something he latched onto. That was because he wanted to fit in with his friends. It was these political views that he grew so attached to that was the main influence on his early childhood.("United States Holocaust Memorial Museum", 2016)

The word personality is known as quite a diverse concept and can be described differently in accordance to different people, it comes from the word persona which is a Latin term and is referred to as a mask which actors use when performing. Based on this it could be concluded that characteristics which are visible along with external characteristics (the aspects of us in which can be seen by others) is what personality refers to, (Schultz and Scultz, 2004). Another definition of personality by a different psychologist is “The dynamic and organized set of characteristics possessed by a person that uniquely influences his or her cognitions, motivations, and behaviours in various situations.” (Rychman, 1999: 5). There are many areas of personality

Personality and how we behave have been of much interest to psychologists for a long time now and because of this there have been many theories and theorists that have been developed. Personality is defined as consistent behavior patterns and intrapersonal processes originating within and individual (Fritzley, 2012, p. 10). There are six main approaches to personality psychology they include: biological approach, humanistic approach, behaviorist approach, trait approach, psychoanalytic approach and cognitive approach.

A.N. Wilson’s novel reflects on Adolf Hitler’s life from the very beginning all the way until the end. In the beginning of the book Wilson examined the early life of Adolf Hitler and his original aspirations on what he wanted to be in life. As the book went on, Wilson started to show more and more how Hitler worked his way up the ranks eventually becoming the dictator of Germany. Wilson’s novel also debunks the myths that Hitler described in his own novel “Mein kiemph” of him struggling throughout his life. Hitler lived in comfortable middle class conditions and not the poor life as he described which was only one of his many lies.

“Adolf Hitler was born on April 20, 1889, which was on Easter Sunday. Adolf was one of four children but none of the other children lived past two years of age. After Adolf was born, his mom, Klara, had two more kids who did live to be older than two. Adolf’s mom, Klara, had been traumatized by the death of her first three children, causing her to go crazy”. Klara always worried about Adolf dying. Adolf also had two half brothers and sisters from his dad Alois Hitler. Alois Hitler was never a big part of Adolf’s life and he struggled with that. Adolf had a dream of being an artist, but that did not match the government job his dad wanted him to have. People say that Hitler was a mean man because of his dad and his early life. His dad would get drunk and go crazy on his family, this is not a way to grow up, and it certainly impacted Hitler and history. “When his father died Hitler roamed the streets dreaming of his future as an artist. When Hitler was 18, he tried to enter the Academy of Fine Arts, but was rejected twice this caused him a lot of frustration.” When Hitler was 25 he was part of the military and served in World War I, this allowed him to release some of the anger and frustration. “While in the army Hitler was wounded twice, once by gas. This is said to be the reason he went a little crazy. While in the war this is when he started to hate the Jews. Hitler said, while in the war that the Jews were everywhere and he began to hate them more and more as he saw

Hitler’s family lived on a farm and he was expected to go to school and complete farm chores regularly. Hitler’s father was very short tempered and believed that retirement was difficult. Hitler’s half brother ended up running away due to harsh treatment by his father and never returned back home. Soon after Hitler’s family started to move many times, this didn’t have a negative result on Hitler. He was still a very good student. After getting an education for a couple of years Hitler decided that he wanted to grow up and become a priest, he always looked up to the members of the Catholic Church. At the age of nine Hitler was starting to act out. Hitler started smoking cigarettes and didn’t receive any type of punishment for it. Hitler’s faze of becoming a priest soon past. After finding his fathers collection of books about the war between the German’s and French, Hitler became obsessed with the war. After finding out that his half brother passed Hitler was never the same. Hitler’s father forced him into technical school to follow in his footsteps. Hitler was very unhappy and started to get bad grades. In 1903, Hitler’s father passed away. This left Hitler as head of the household

Adolf Hitler was born on April 20, 1989 in Austria.

This paper is a comparison of three different viewpoints on the subject of personality. Carl Jung, B.F. Skinner, and Carl Rogers all had very different outlooks on what defined someone’s personality. As an added feature I have included myself as a theorist because my views are also different from the previous mentioned theorists. This paper will also look briefly into the background of each theorist because their views on life began in their childhood. Amazingly you will notice the all had similar backgrounds, but came up with completely different ways of looking at life.
