Great Essays
Hatred is never good, the best thing to do with it is to get rid of it. Hitler is a great example of what hatred can do. Hitlers obsession for a great Germany, and how the effects of his obsession destroyed millions of lives in what is known as the holocaust. Hitler was born at an Inn in Austro- Hungarian (present day Austria), April 20th 1889 (Miller, “Adolf Hitler” ). His parents were Alois, and Klara, and he was the fourth sibling out of six (Miller, “Adolf Hitler” ). His father, Alois was an Austrian customs official causing his family to move around a lot (Manehiem and Abraham 4).

He served in France, and Belgium, receiving several military distinctions such as the iron cross first, and second class (Miller, “Adolf Hitler”). He displayed a lot of fearlessness in battle receiving the wounded badge for injuries he got in 1916 (Miller, “Adolf Hitler”). Then in 1918 he was admitted to the military field hospital for temporary blindness (Miller, “Adolf Hitler”). While he was in the hospital for temporary blindness, he was examined by military physicians and a psychiatric specialist who found him mentally unfit to command subordinates deeming him “dangerously psychotic” (Miller, “Adolf Hitler”). His WWI experiences greatly influenced his belief that he was Germany's “savior” (Miller, “Adolf Hitler”).

    Spencer O’Brien English 10 Juskidus October 17th, 2017 Inhumanity in Humanity In Night, Elie Wiesel shows how millions of Jewish people were taken by the Nazis, placed into concentration camps and systematically killed. As prisoners, they were beaten regularly, starved, forced to live in horrendous conditions and were even stripped of their names. Overtime, the jews began to completely forget who they once were. As for the Nazis, they would tease, torture, and kill prisoners so often that it no longer seemed inhumane to them. Elie Wiesel demonstrates how the Holocaust brought out the most inhumane and savage side of both the prisoners and the Nazis SS guards.…

    There is no brightness in the Holocaust. It is nothing more than an arrangement of deep, saddening works ranging from memoirs to novels to any other form of expression. But there is always the same feeling attached to the words and pictures surrounding World War II. The burning question of ‘how’. How can the human race be so cruel?…

    Juri Moore Mr. Nash English II-2 22 June 2017 Night Essay - Prompt #5 Dehumanization of others has presented, as well as repeated, itself countless times throughout the world’s history. One of the many records of dehumanizing tactics includes the Holocaust and the Germans’ infamous treatment of the Jews in the 1940s, as depicted and described in Jewish survivor Elie Wiesel’s Night , written in his first person perspective.

    The Holocaust, which was the systematic persecution and murder of over six million Jews during World War II, is often cited as one of the worst atrocities committed in the history of human civilization. People speak of it in hushed, mournful voices as they wonder at how the German Nazis could be so malevolent as to annihilate a whole generation of Jews. Hundreds of eminent scholars have eloquently explained the horrific nature of the Holocaust and its effects on the modern world (Gerstenfeld). Yet, it can be said that emphasis should be placed on understanding why Adolf Hitler decided to exterminate so many Jews. Only by looking through the perspective of the Nazis can one begin to understand that the Nazi Party and its leader, Hitler, brutally…

    Holocaust Research Paper The survivors of the Holocaust have painted a sympathetic, yet mournful picture in the minds of those who are eager to listen to their stories. The many horrors of the Holocaust have rendered those survivors with forlorn memories that will last a lifetime—but to what extent did the Nazis really go to inflict such terrors? Eliezer Wiesel wrote a powerful memoir called Night that recalled his very own experience throughout World War II with stirring details and emotive plots surrounding the Nazis. He wrote it with his heart and wistful mind and told his story through the deceased, who would’ve spoken of the same terrors if they hadn’t passed away.…

    Adolf Hitler AKA Trump Hitler is described as an idealist, Dictative, Radical, and persuasive person. Hitler was a very hopeful leader at the time. He was a great orator, but his ideals of what was right and what he thought was Germany's destiny were obviously misconstrued. He was very vengeful at the Jews (mother's death), and he was very Idealistic in the fact that he wanted to create a "Pure" Race, a "breed" of man that would be the ultimate in everything, he definitely brought Germany up from the ruins that it was in (one reason he became so powerful, because to most of the Germans, he was their hope, their "Savior")…

    11 million Jews, Romanians, mentally ill, disabled, and homosexuals were brutally murdered in the Holocaust during WW2. People definitely already know about the Holocaust, but it truly is hard to understand the severity of this massacre.

This led to even people of his own country returning that hatred. Throughout the resources available, it is possible to learn about the Holocaust through fiction, nonfiction, children’s books, and films.…

    Naturally, however, in German history, the wrongdoings of Hitler will always overshadow the good done during the unification of Germany years prior. Still, both leaders were harsh and stubborn in many ways, particularly Bismarck; “Although he cared for the world’s opinion, it never deterred him in his actions; criticism and denunciation left him untouched. . .”(Palmer 527). While this made Bismarck less personable, it nonetheless turned him into a great leader, one with fierce determination. From the writing of Mein Kampf in the early 20th century to his death in 1945, Hitler was never set off his path to the creation of a pure Aryan race.…
