fact that, unfortunately, multiculturalism

Adolf Hitler Benito Mussolini

Adolf Hitler is known throughout the world for the
terror he caused from 1933 to 1945. Virtually
every country that offers history to its students
covers this man and his path of destruction. There
are thousands of books and articles on the Hitler
and the Nazi party. Therefore, it is redundant to
try and restate what is already well known about
Hitler. However, one of the few aspects about
Hitler that is not well known is his relationship
with Benito Mussolini and how that friendship

Hitler, leader of the German Nazi party and, from
1933 until his death, dictator of Germany. He rose
from the bottom of society to conquer first
Germany and then most of Europe. Riding on a wave
of European fascism after World War I and favored
by traditional defects in German society,
especially its lack of cohesion, he built a
Fascist regime unparalleled for barbarism and
terror. His rule resulted in the destruction of
the German nation-state and its society, in the

When the Holocaust, or the persecution of the Jews
around World War 2, is mentioned there is one name
that immediately comes to mind: Adolf Hitler of
course. And sure, he was the chief culprit, but he
had many collaborators. One of them was Karl Adolf
Eichmann. Born in 1906 in Cologne, Germany into a
middle class protestant family, as a boy he was
teased and nicknamed the little Jew by classmates,
because of his dark complexion. At age 26 he
joined the growing Austrian Nazi Party at the

... Hitler pursued his policy of territorial
expansion or not, because National-Socialism was
threatening the very existence of Western
democracies on spiritual level. Nazism is
essentially a cult of physical health, beauty, and
intelligence. Many historians refer to the rise of
Nazi party as conservative revolution as opposed
to liberal revolution with ideas of equality and
progress. This only partially is a truth. The

else but an extraordinary at...

Nazi Doctor Past Tense Amis

The Point of Reversal Martin Amiss seventh novel,
Times Arrow, or the Nature of the Offense is
filled with echoes from the work of the great
Holocaust writer Primo Levi. However from critical
point of view, jokers laughing in the dark, poised
between parody and bathos, humming with thoughts
too deep for tears as well as other literary
symbols recall Nabokov and Pynchon. For such
writers, technique is discovery, not vain display,
and their subjects are profound. In attempting a
Holocaust novel, M...

Czar Nicholas Ii Anti Semitism

A major problem in understanding World War II is
dealing with its ironies. Germans mastered most of
the military lessons of World War I, but lost;
Anglo-Americans and Russians learned little or
nothing from the earlier conflict, but won.
Germans hailed Adolf Hitler as the greatest German
in history; but had Otto von Bismarck rather than
Hitler ruled the Third Reich, there would probably
not have been a Holocaust and a German Century
might have begun after the French collapse, in
1940. Instead, N...

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 ...
