Hitler Believed Mentally Ill
918 words
Six million Jews and millions of others, including
Gypsies, Slavs, homosexuals, the mentally ill and
the infirm were murdered by the Nazis between 1933
and 1945. The magnitude of brutality, the
remorseless cruelty, and the mass murder during
the Holocaust are unique. However the root causes
of the Holocaust continue. Racial hatred, economic
crises, human psychological and moral flaws are
still ominously common. Saying this, we must have
the courage to remember the Holocaust, no matter
how distur...

From the beginning the Nazis who were being
faithful to Hitler had specifically targeted the
Jews. The Nazis relentless hatred for the Jews
rested on the view they had of the world, which
saw history as of racial struggle. They thought
the Jews goal was world domination. This made the
Nazis think that the Jews were an obstruction to
Aryan dominance. They considered it their duty to
eliminate the Jews, whom they regarded as a
threat. Other factors also contributed toward the

... realization needed to destroy the Jews (Mazian
226 - 8). Lack of awareness also proved to be a
control that failed the Jews. The Jews did not
realize the Nazis ultimate goal. Without that
information, the Jews did not understand the need
to fight back. Why then, did the Jews not
understand that they were to be killed? First,
they felt, as all people do, that it is not normal
for people to be killed for no reason. They had
done nothing wrong, so why should they worry about
being killed? Secon...

unthinkable and atrocious collective trauma. In
her work Survivor-Parents and Their Children taken
from the anthology Generations of the Holocaust,
Judith S. Kestenberg has argued that regardless of

survivors parenting. The children of survivors
receive a secondary traumatic impact by being
forced to deal with the impact the Holocaust had
directly on their parents. The novel Briar Rose by
Jane Yo...

million people is fully one fifth of the world's

In this paper I will be going over the ethical
views of the Holocaust. I have taken information
from the accounts of surviving Jews of the
Holocaust. I have also looked at information from
those who believe the Holocaust was not a big deal
and deny that many of the events even happened. I
will bring up some viewpoints that may change
peoples perception of the Holocaust. Some of these
facts were a shock to me and changed my view a
little but some are so profound they make you
think twice. The big...

Makes Witnessing Impossible Eliminates Its Own Witnesses Holocaust

The Holocaust was a tragic event that was an
attempt to wipe out the Jewish people. Even though
Hitler came close to accomplishing his goal, some
Jews were still able to survive and tell their
story. The authors Primo Levi and Dori Laub are
both survivors of the Holocaust that discuss their
narrative of the event. Levi views the Holocaust
as a unique, an unprecedented event that does not
yet have a language adequate to it. This helps us
understand Laub s idea that the Holocaust is an
event that ...

Story Of A Man Oskar Schindler
677 words
Steven Speilberg s main purpose for directing the
film Schindler s List was to tell the best story
to ever come out of the Holocaust, whilst
informing the viewer of the horrific events that
occurred during the Holocaust was his secondary
motive. Due to the fact that the movie is based
around the life of one man, it is obvious that
this is correct. Also, the development of the
characters and the importance of names in the film
suggest that is was not merely a Holocaust
documentary. Schindler s Li...
