Adolf Hitler's Insane Or Just Evil?

Hitler’s stubbornness kept him from getting the real view of the war. As the fighting continued, Hitler spent less time in public and more time in the bunker. He refused to look at any unpleasant information and was “increasingly out of touch with reality and unprepared to accept truths presented to him” (185). Hitler did not want to be bothered with the day-to-day activities of government and would refuse to get

To fully answer this question one must look at the underlying philosophies behind Hitler’s leadership. What did he stand for and did his ideologies have any redeeming characteristics? Indisputably he had an ability to lead and motivate. He was revered with almost God – like fanaticisms by his people. This essay will set out to establish the basis of his leadership and within that framework, the nature of the man and his vision for the world.

The issue of Hitler’s psychological abnormality and the cause being has many believed that it also stems from him being rejected twice to his dream school, the Academy of Arts in Vienna. He has been raised with the constant influence of anti-semitic beliefs and many believed that a staggering amount of Jewish people who were in power during the time had a lot of impact whether he would have been accepted to his dream school or not-- this obviously made him dislike the general Jewish population more than he already did. However, it is not just Hitler’s psychological state of mind that enabled him to commit barbaric and inhumane acts of aggression towards millions of Jewish people, but also the German citizens’ defeated and worn out feelings that also allowed for the horrendous acts to be committed. This is due to the fact that Germany lost the First World War and were deemed to be responsible for the reparations that totalled to 132 billion gold marks, or over $33 billion US dollars, and with this plus the fitful psychological state of mind of the dictator himself, Hitler and the Germans sought out for revenge and found the Jewish population as the main target to place their rage. The idea of using the Jewish population as the scapegoat for their

To take a look in the monster. To look into the backstory of Adolf Hitler. Hitler was born in Austria in 1889. He was elected the leader of Germany after the first World War. These are facts that everyone already knows a thing or two about. What people may not know is that Hitler was losing his mind and his physical health was failing. According to Newsreel footage that was uncovered in the University of Chicago, Hitler was showing signs of early Parkinson's. His right hand was always shaking, he began moving slower, he began to slouch and forget about his posture all together. A member of the Hitler Youth, who saw him only a couple of years before Hitler killed himself and saw him a few days before said that "Hitler had aged 20 years in only 2." That not enough evidence? What about his doctor's note? Worldwide proclaimed psychiatrist by the name of Fritz Redlich openly stated that he was "categorically certain that Adolf Hitler was suffering from Parkinson's Disease." He was diagnosed at the beginning of the years of the war and he was only getting worse. In 1941 he had the deices and was getting worse. Imagine how bad it must have been after 4 years being one of the most despised men alive. The stress would have been making it spread faster. He was even put on bed rest in 1944 against his will because he had callapsed in front of his inner-circle. In addition to that, his personal doctor, a man named Theodor Morell, Hitler had a substance abuse problem that caused his already caving health to cave faster. And before that he was in a bombing in 1945 that left him with dizzy spells and intense, sharp-shooting pain. This would lead one to believe that even if Hitler had found a way out of the bunker in 1945, there is no way he would have the energy to outrun Russian soldiers. There was also no way that a tank could get through the bombings so that eliminates the possibility of a get

The rise and fall of Adolf Hitler is one of the most terrible, dramatic and unbelievable stories in history (Wein). Following the financial troubles of World War I, Hitler came into power over Germany as chancellor, ending German democracy. He rebuilt the German Army and started the Nazi Regime (United States Holocaust Memorial Museum). Hitler employed several methods to raise to the position of Fuerer, the Leader of Germany. It included discrediting his opponents, manipulating a series of events in his favor and creating absolute power or a dictatorship by removing all obstacles.

A newspaper form group of Americans neurologists make the case that hitler suffered from parkinson's disease for much of his life, and that some of his most fateful decision were influenced by the neurological disorder. The possibilities of hitler suffering from parkinson's disease has long been the subject of debate. Lieberman suggested that hitler suffered from parkinson's early as 1933. Video evidence depicts that hitler exhibited progressive motor function deterioration from 1933 to 1945. That hitler suffered from parkinson's at the end of his life is not a new idea but gupta et al.say that hitler’s disease may have impacted large parts of his life career. Making Him impulsive and reckless,and ultimately making him lose WW2. We propose that hitler’s conditions may have led him to attack russia prematurely in 1941. Lieberman has suggested that the decision to invade russia without an before defeating britain on the western front and waiting for reinforcements from japan, was not only reckless but also was influenced by hitler’s failing health . The authors cite other bad decision of hitler;s such as the failure to defend normandy in 1944, and his refusal to allow his forces to withdraw from stalingrad in 1942, as products of the dictator's “volatile temperament” which they say, may have been exacerbated by his parkinson

Throughout the 1920’s, Adolf Hitler campaigned openly with a bitter tone of anti-semitism. Furthermore in April of 1933, the Nazis began their government with a one day boycott of Jewish stores and factories. This event sat as a benchmark of the rise of Adolf Hitler, leading to a strong centralized government with social and economic control. Fervent patriotism was shown when the towns being tormented were controlled by Adolf, a dictator. In september of 1935, the German government enacted the Nuremberg Laws which systematized the racial definition of Jews denying them the citizenship and fundamental rights. This event was another major cause that lead to the

When considering historians accounts on whether Hitler was a “Weak dictator.” due to his erratic ineptitude as a leader or whether he was actually “The Master of the Third Reich.”, it’s essential to look upon the historians argument and whether it’s credible or not. With a look at the differing historian’s views it’s evident that there’s clear difference between the historians viewpoints; some portray Hitler to be a lazy and reluctant decision maker and was merely “One extreme element of the extensive malevolence that was the Nazi system.” Whereas others argue that Hitler had reached a state of absolutism as he controlled all areas of Nazi government and thus tailored a social Darwinist bureaucracy which was driven to implement his world view” . Both sides of the argument can be divided into two different aspects: Some historians argue from an ‘Intentionalist’ viewpoint where Hitler had total control whereas others would argue from a ‘Structualist’ viewpoint thus suggesting Hitler didn’t have full control due to his poly-cratic style of leadership and there was more than one element of rule within Nazi Germany.

After the Nazi power achieved power in Germany in 1933, its state-sponsored racism led to anti-jewish legislation, economic boycotts, and the violence of the kristallnacht (Night of Broken glass) pogroms and Nazis blamed Jews for the lost of World War 1 , All of which aimed to separate Jews from society and take them out of the country. And by also 1933 anti-jewish propaganda had spreaded all over Germany.

Hitler never walked straight or good poster he always walked hunched back. Adolf Hitler probably was one of the most unhealthiest people on earth at the time they said Hitler shook so much he couldn't hold a fork. Hitler also suffer from insomnia; eye problems that made him sensitive to bright light ; severe to chronic stomach cramps; and eczema an itchy, scaly skin condition on his legs and hands. he is known for his stomach cramps and had a lung infection that kept him out of school for a

“The preoccupation with degeneration and hereditary physical and mental illness in my opinion played a greater role in the evolution of Hitler’s political beliefs than previously has been assumed.” Within the Hitler clan, there are multiple relatives who were diagnosed with mental disabilities and psychotic illnesses, all of whom were closely relative to Adolf himself.

In the article 1933 Hitler starts havoc all over Germany. Hitler's reign of terror was

“Considering his origins and his early life, it would be difficult to imagine a more unlikely figure to succeed to the mantle of Bismark, the Hohenzollern emperors and President Hindenburg than this singular Austrian of peasant stock who was born at half past six in the evening of April 20, 1889 in the Gasthof zum Pommer, a modest inn in the town of Braunau am Inn, across the border from Bavaria.” (William L. Shirer 14) Hitler was a corrupted man by having a terrible childhood. He did not have any role model, such as a father and mother. He only had a dreams to become things but he was not allowed to be anything. Several factors in Hitler's life may have contributed to him becoming an evil dictator. He was not allowed to become an artist, he wanted to be a priest but could not, and he had a bad relationship with his father.

My client is Adolf Hitler, he is in his late 30’s to 40’s and he is a white male. He has blue eyes and dark brown hair, he is unable to walk long distances without having something to support him. I believe that Hitler had some mental issues that he needs to be treated for and I will show you throughout this paper what has led him to having these symptoms. I will first tell you about his history, then I will explain the symptoms of his mental illnesses, and then talk about the cultural context of Hitler.

From January of 1933 to April of 1945, Adolf Hitler ruled over the German people and became known as one of the most notorious dictators the world has ever seen. Several studies done by scholars and historians show that Hitler “displayed substantial initiative, toughness of mind, self-confidence, and ruthlessness” (Housden 188). Using coercion techniques and his understanding of the human psyche, Hitler was able to bully and lie to his European neighbors in order to achieve his objectives. He fooled nations into believing his “peaceful” intentions, but his mission for World War II came to an ultimate failure leading to his suicide in April of 1945 (Housden 200). Adolf Hitler faced eventual failure as a military leader as a result of his misunderstandings of the “rules” of warfare. Hitler’s lack of experience and his inadequate knowledge of warfare were two of the key points that proved to be fatal.
