The Duel Essay

It is evident that the source is a secondary source because it has not been alternated in any way and was written by the author in this era. It can be seen that the author is no other than JOHN CAI BENJAMIN WEAVER where this source was produced on the 16 of May 2011. The purpose of this source is to highlight the good and evil things Hitler did behind his people’s backs and who was instrumental in adopting the beliefs for nationalism in Germany. It is clear that Adolf Hitler was instrumental in adopting nationalism into Germany with the rest of the country believing and following in also becoming nationalists. The reason for the people of Germany seeing hope from in restoring Germany from Hitler being in charge is because The German folk were

Syntax; He used sentence fragments when talking about the German invasion. He doesn't go in depth when talking about the events that led to the invasion. He focuses more on the people involved, he cares more about the human nature involved in the events.

Karl Marx’s maxim that ‘men make their own history…under given and imposed conditions’ has been tainted by several revisionist historians as the catalyst for Hitler’s foreign policy. A.J.P. Taylor even goes on to argue that Hitler was not only continuing a policy of previous German governments but he also believes Hitler can not be directly implemented in the events which unleashed WW2. However, to attribute Hitler’s foreign policy purely to his opportunistic characteristics would be to ignore his personal motivations and both racist and expansionist ideology. This facile explanation also fails to look at Hitler’s intentions echoed fearlessly throughout his speeches, address, and party literature of reversing the Treaty of Versailles to

Today in the United States citizens are given rights to speak freely, worship as they wish, and pursue life, liberty, and happiness. Unfortunately, most foreign nations do not grant their citizens these rights. People in foreign nations live with little protection, financial insecurity, and are governed by callous rules. Behind closed doors in private business in the United States, many workers face this tyranny as well. This relentless dictatorship causes men to live in fear for their own lives. Men struggle to abide by these strict and inhumane rulings. In most scenarios, man recognizes that there is no easy way out. Consequentially, a rebellion remains to be the only option. Since before Christ, men

When looking in history all most everyone knows about the horrors of World War II, Hitler, Nazi Germany, and the Holocaust. What they do not know is the truth behind the power of Hitler. In the Experts from Correspondence, Diary and Speeches by Neville Chamberlin and Rudolf Hoss’s Memoirs, we see the two similar but different sides of Hitler and World War II. In the Experts from Correspondence, readers get a personal viewpoint of Britain man. Neville Chamberlin came from a well-educated home and his father vas involved in politics. Neville Chamberlin followed in his father’s footsteps and after starting a business, Neville joined politics and became Prime Minister. In his source, he has a letter he wrote to his sister, a speech to Parliament, a Diary Entry, and a radio speech he gives to the nation. Rudolf Hoss’s "Memoirs" gives a person story of Hitler’s direct command. Rudolf Hoss became the Direct Commander of all the Third Reich’s death camps.

Considering the fact that the author, John H. Morrow Jr, is an American citizen, his point of view and argumentation are one-sided. However, in such events there are two sides and it would be advisable to hear both of them, notably about the concept of responsibility. On one hand, some Historians (i.e. Christopher Clark) bring a lot of nuances to the question of fault; all participants bearing a share of responsibility for the deadly explosion of this mixture made of policy, internal oppositions, opaque decision-making, for example within diplomatic machinery. Germany entered the war as a result of unfortunate circumstances

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.

Before the battle of Dunkirk, the Germans had the upper hand in the war. The Germans surrounded and trapped the Allied soldiers at Dunkirk. However, Hitler made the mistake of halting the attack and not finishing off the soldiers. He allowed for the Allied forces to escape because he claimed he wanted to make peace with Winston Churchill and he wanted to rest his troops. In later documents, it was revealed he stopped the attack to display his power and show the other military leaders that he was in charge. Nonetheless, the escape at Dunkirk was a significant event in the war because it allowed Britain to save a large number of soldiers that were needed to win later battles.

Being honest, while making a personable connection with the people, portrays Churchill as a trustworthy leader. This lasting impression gives British citizens a cause willing to fight for. He finalizes some of his points with, “...if we fight to the end, it can only be glorious.” By creating an image of defeat over Germany, the people would be more encouraged to fight. Having a positive ending, that comes with heroism and glory, is important to convey to the nation.

During Barack Obama’s “A just and lasting peace” speech, he makes it very clear that he believes that war and violence are necessary to obtain peace. One of the first cases, when he supports the idea of violence to obtain peace, is when he says that non-violence could not have stopped Hitler and his armies. Here Obama uses one of the most infamous people in the history of the world. Hitler was known for his ruthlessness and for him killing millions of innocent people during the World War. So when Obama says that non-violence could not have stopped Hitler’s armies, he shows that there is a time and a place where the use of force is needed and if not applied you will lose.

“Those that fail to learn from history, are doomed to repeat it” (Churchill). The book Hitler’s Last Days: The Death of the Nazi Regime and the World’s Most Notorious Dictator, by Bill O’Reilly, details the last days of the most reviled and evil man in history: Adolf Hitler. Most of the book is focused inside the bunker where Hitler is weakened by a failed assassination attempt, while German soldiers were camouflaged and quietly traveling their way through the Ardennes Forest in Luxembourg in an effort to win the war. It also provides insight into the minds of the brave men who dared to fight and the generals that led them. It gives specific details about the last desperate attempt of Hitler to turn the tide of the war and keep Germany away

After becoming Reich Chancellor in 1933, Hitler swiftly consolidated power, anointing himself Führer (supreme leader) in 1934. Obsessed with the idea of the superiority of the “pure” German race, which he called “Aryan,” Hitler believed that war was the only way to gain the necessary “Lebensraum,” or living space, for that race to expand. In the mid-1930s, he began the rearmament of Germany, secretly and in violation of the Versailles Treaty. After signing alliances with Italy and Japan against the Soviet Union, Hitler sent troops to occupy Austria in 1938 and the following year annexed Czechoslovakia. Hitler’s open aggression went unchecked, as the United States and Soviet Union were concentrated on internal politics at the time, and neither France nor Britain (the two other nations most devastated by the Great War) were eager for confrontation.

Hitler’s timing was nothing but appropriate, as the nation had collapsed into economic and social chaos as a result of a surrender in the Great War. This gave Hitler the chance to make extremely pathos-driven arguments: an actual plan for winning over a fragile audience that could be certainly influenced. As such, from the beginning of his speech, Hitler speaks to his audience as not ‘their’ problem, but as ‘our’ problem. Similarly, Hitler creates an idea of unity with the German people – something that they had been looking for since the end of the Great War. Hitler forms a pathos-linked association between himself and the German people by striking at communism. In founding a mutual enemy, Hitler empathizes with the German people against communism,

In the 1930s there was a man rising up in Germany his name was Adolf Hitler. Hitler was a man of great ambition. Through his ambition, he had a significant impact on the development and outcome of World War 2. This man played an extraordinary role for Germany and his Nazi Party (National Socialism.) Adolf Hitler had three significant aspects that affected the development and the outcome of the war they were; Hitler’s influences on the German people, Hitler’s early seizing’s of territory in Europe, and Hitler declares war on the wrong people.

“Hitler did not act alone in the conduct of foreign policy in the 1930’s neither did he dictate its course exclusively.” In the early years of Hitler’s reign Taylor was correct to identify him as an ordinary statesman because during this time there was a different formation of Government compared to the later years in the war. However, it is difficult in retrospect to dispute that Hitler was a normal statesman when looking at atrocities of his domestic policies such as; the extermination of Jews in concentration camps. The war was still in the public memory when ‘Origins’ was published and the myth created about Hitler that he was a madman with brutal policies was strongly embedded in society, therefore to argue against this would obviously create much controversy.
