...the history of man an evil person named Adolf Hitler killed over eleven million people 5.9 were Jewish; he targeted Jewish people or Jews and other races because they are different. One thing that most likely helped Hitler to grow up into an evil man might have been due to his childhood. When Hitler was young he had an interest in politics and that interest stuck with him until he died. In his final days of life Adolf Hitler was losing World War 2 and instead of saving his life he killed himself. If people learn more about Adolf Hitler and what he did to different races then all races would get along. Adolf Hitler the infamous leader of Nazi Germany was born in the year of 1889 on the 20th of April in the city of Braunau-am-Inn, in the country of Austria (The Famous People). The city he lived in was by the Austria-Germany border. Hitler’s mom Klara Plozl and his father Alois Hitler had six children Adolf Hitler was the 4th born and his sister Paula was the sixth born, Paula and Hitler were the only kids to survive into adult hood (The Famous People). Paula ended up living longer than Hitler. According to Adolf Hitler’s book, “I had a bad child hood” (TheFamousPeople.com).

Alois Hitler was a costumed officer on German Austria border (Phil Stokes). Hitler’s dad being an evil man Adolf was going to end up being an evil man and which...

...Adolf Hitler; a name of pure evil, known to be one of the world’s most feared villains of all time. A name that shows how powerful, dark, and despicable one human can be. Leaving one of the biggest marks in history, Hitler cloned an entire country and killed over six million men, women, and children in his attempt to make a “perfect world.” He deemed the Jewish people as “inferior” and did everything in his power to destroy them. But what could possibly lead a man to do such heinous crimes? What could drive a man to kill millions? What were the motivations behind Adolf Hitler? On September 12th, an all-American force stormed and captured German trenches close to Verdun. The Allies were in position to strike at the Hindenburg Line. On September 26th, armies attacked. Fighting with heavy artillery and new, modern tanks, the Allied army tore open the heart of the Hindenburg Line. British troops advanced, overwhelming the Germans as they retreated, fighting their pursuers every step of the way. After four long years of war, Germany’s proud military commanders finally accepted that the war was lost. With rebellious soldiers and civilians marching through the streets, demanding a new government, even the Kaiser agreed that it was time to negotiate for peace with the Allies without the disgrace of having to surrender. In October, he sent officials to propose a cease-fire, or armistice. But, even with his empire crumbling around him, the Kaiser still thought Germany could end...

...Woolf-Gurley English 1301-12123 The Life of Adolf Hitler The life of Adolf Hitler had always been a struggle since the day he was born till the very end of his life. You never really understand the situations people put themselves in and why until you really learn about them. Everyone may have their own personal opinions about someone but who is anyone to judge before they really understand the person completely. Each person has their own time line, and everything that has happened to them to make them the person they grow up to be, everyone has certain events throughout their lives that define them and help mold them into adults. Many people know of Adolf Hitler and why he was a part of history. They know of him as being responsible for the Holocaust, but very few know the reasons that led him to it. Born in Branau am Inn, Austria, on April 20, 1889, Adolf Hitler was the fourth of six children born to Alois Hitler and Klara Polzl. In 1895, at age six, two important events happened in the life of young Adolf Hitler. First, the unrestrained, carefree days he had enjoyed up to now came to an end as he entered primary school. Secondly, his father retired on a pension from the Austrian civil service. This meant a double dose of supervision, discipline and regimentation under the watchful eyes of teachers at school and his strict father at home. His father, now 58, had spent most of his life working his way up through the civil service ranks. He was used to giving orders and having them...

...ADOLF HITLER- LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT PRACTICES James Latronica Edison State College ADOLF HITLER- LEADERSHIP AND MANAGEMENT PRACTICES Even though he is famous for the wrong reasons and perhaps evil ones, Adolf Hitler will be remembered for a long time. He is one of the most famous villains of the 20th century world history. His rule over Germany and parts of Europe left a mark that is felt even today, decades after he died in the war. His rule saw Germany take over more territories than it had in its history prior to that period. For many military professionals, Hitler was a remarkably successful leader. However, his leadership led to the death of millions of people from his home country. While his followers called him a great leader, his enemies, who seem to be the majority, saw him as a threat to humanity. Hitler believed in a country of pure people; a superior race. For him, however, a superior race could not be comprised of Jews and other sickly people. He therefore put all the people he disliked in work camps while continuing to kill the rest. While the leader was relentless, it is noted that he did not have the best judgment. He thought that the superior race was composed of physically strong people. It has, however, been proven that the mind is almost all the time stronger than the body. It is important to acknowledge that, while his methods were wrong, his leadership was effective. He was able to run a country while waging wars...

Having done this, we would like to take this opportunity to thank Professor Amanjeet Kaur for giving us this project. Preface We must have all read and studied about Adolf Hitler who is perhaps one of the most hated men in the world. But when we go on and on about his evil ways, we never stop and think about his good side. Hitler is an enigma. He supported democracy and was not at all prejudiced against the Jews. But somewhere down the line, something changed and made him, compelled him to fight and fight hard and turn the tables of fortune towards Germany. He often said “The doom of a nation can be averted only by a storm of flowing passion, but only those who are passionate themselves can arouse passion in others”. And thus to prevent the doom of Germany, Hitler became what he was. There is no justifying killing millions of Jews in the name of race. There is no justifying the world war, the bloodiest war in the history of mankind, which Hitler started. But then there is no justifying human ignorance. Which brings to the question, how many of us have bothered to...

...Paper Adolf Hitler was a famous individual from the 20th century; his story has been well known for many years and will continue to spread through time as it was a memorable part of our history. He was the founder and leader of the Nazi party from 1933-1945 (Wistrich, 1997). His father was Alois Hitler, who was an authoritarian disciplinarian. He was strongly attached to his mother Klara Poelzl, she was a strong woman and a very hard worker. Once she passed away from cancer, Adolf Hitler began to show signs of moodiness, temperamental, and not willing to work (Wistrich, 1997). He moved to Vienna in 1907 and applied to Viennese Academy of Fine Arts, which he was rejected. This was the final turning point for Adolf Hitler. According to the Holocaust Education & Archive Research Team; in 1913, Hitler moved to Munich to join the Sixteenth Bavarian Infantry Regiment, serving as a despatch runner. He was badly wounded and placed in gas chambers for four weeks. Once he was released, he had to recuperate in a hospital for three months (C.W. and CL Heart, 2007). Hitler believed this would be his fate; to punish those that had embarrassed him in front of his nation; the Jewish and the Bolsheviks. In 1919, Hitler started out with 40 members by his side and used the swastika and the “Heil” sign at greetings (C.W., at,el, 2007). In the year 1921, the Nazi Party had grown to over 3,000 members; this only fuelled his self-esteem, power, and personal growth. Hitler seemed to...

Adolf Hitler is considered to be perhaps the most villainous man of the twentieth century. His vile and ruthless deeds are common knowledge. In fact, the name Hitler has now become synonymous with evil. What many often forget, however, is that Hitler was not only a coldblooded tyrant but that also a brilliant persuader of men. He personally oversaw the deaths of millions of people, including the near extermination of the Jewish race while maintaining the full support of the German people. The entire German population was certainly not as heartless and cruel as Hitler was, so it stands to reason that Hitler must have been a masterful propagandist in order to persuade the Germans that his policies were necessary and just. However, one must remember that Hitler was not born the cruel, vicious tyrant that he became. His life was governed by both his choices and his life experiences, so it is important to examine these along with his persuasive method to gain a comprehensive understanding of why he used his gift of persuasion in the way that he did.

It can have different meanings to different people. “Leadership is a process whereby an individual influences a group of individuals to achieve a common goal” (Northouse, 2012, pg. 5). The process by which a person influences others to accomplish a goal or objective is carried out by applying their leadership attributes. A leader has a variety of attributes that affect how they accomplish their goal. These attributes include beliefs, values, ethics, character, knowledge, and skills. Leaders often are charismatic, good communicators, and have the ability to motivate (Northouse, 2012). Leadership normally combines a goal that coincides with the leader’s beliefs. Leaders are usually perceived in positive light, although just because you are a leader does not mean it is for a virtuous cause. The objective of some leaders can be immoral. This type of leader is referred to as a pseudo- transformational leader. This type of leader is “self-consumed, exploitive, and power oriented, with warped moral values” (Northouse, 2012, pg. 187). Adolf Hitler was the leader of the Nazi Party and the Chancellor of Germany but the ramifications of his leadership had a devastating impact on Eastern...

...Adolf Hitler: The Man or the Monster PSY 300 Adolf Hitler: The Man and his Demons Introduction “One blood demands one Reich!” (Hitler, 1999). Adolf Hitler was not the man that everyone believes him to be. This paper will explain how Sigmund Freud’s theory and Carl Rogers Humanistic theory relate to Adolf Hitler and will shed light on how the two theories may have shaped him into the infamous man in history today. This paper will also hold the element of surprise and enlightenment due to information that is not regularly discussed whenever an individual hears the name Adolf Hitler. Discussion Background Information Adolf Hitler was born on April 20th, 1899 to Alois Hitler and Klara Polzi. He was the second youngest child out of his five siblings. Both Alois and Klara had known poverty but had strived for a better way to live. The Hitler’s led a fairly comfortable middle- class life but family dynamics left much to be desired. As a father Alois was stern, distant, and irritable and as a husband he expected full obedience from his wife. (cite hitler book) He enjoyed spending outside over spending time with his family, leaving them to their own devices. Luckily for the children Klara did her best to combat how their father treated them and showered them with affection. Klara developed a strong bond with Adolf that was returned with fervor. In his autobiography, Mein Kampf, Hitler wrote “I had honored my father but loved my mother.” (Hitler, 1999). Hitler was the...

His success in World War II was short and when it became evident that his government would fail, he committed suicide. Adolf Hitler was born in Austria in a small town close to the German border.

He was the powerful leader of the Nazi’s during World War II. Time has passed since his ruling, but researchers and historians are still studying him to the last bit to find any source of information. His dictatorship caused the death of 6 million Jews before he was killed. This was two thirds the Jewish population in Europe at the time (Adolf Hitler). Growing Up As a child, Hitler was the fourth of six children. His childhood became very detached after his younger brother died. He often got into fights with his father Alois Hitler. He did not approve that Adolf wanted to go into a career in fine arts. Adolf Hitler was a very talented painter. However, he got rejected from the school of fine arts two times (Adolf Hitler). Then to make matters worse, his father passed away this led his mother to let him drop out of school. From then, he stayed in homeless shelters and sold postcards. Hitler later said these were the years that created his fascism feelings toward the Jews....
