      How he sounds like to someone speaking German, is academic. Goebbels was a highly educated man, with a doctorate in philology, and a writer. He is making a point into which he has confidence. I know several German academics who speak in the same way when the topic is one within their competence.
      Compare this please with Himmler, who had a technical education. Himmler's speech is awkward, almost clumsy with the use of repetition of words.

    It´s quite interesting to hear, that neither Hitler, nor Goebbels spoke a "clean" German. While Hitler could not deny his Austrian background, Goebbels had the typical dialect of the Rhineland, where his hometown Neuss is situated. Göring speaks clearly what is called "High German". Himmler has a "sourthern drawl", rolling the "R" quite noticeable. Speer spoke with no traceable accent. None of them spoke like Hollywood pictures them!

    • @littlefluffybushbaby7256
      @littlefluffybushbaby7256 2 роки тому +98

      Thanks for that insight. I've read that Hitler would have sounded similarly to German ears as a West Country yokel would to British ears. I'm guessing that if movies portrayed the accents with their English/American equivalents (e.g. a southern drawl) they would lose the audience with it. There have been a couple of movies where they used (or just let ride) accents to approximate it.
      "The Death Of Stalin" kind of did that, although I don't think there was an attempt to make them reflect the original accent relationship. Stalin was from rural Geogia. I don't know (nor care, to be honest) about the rest of the gang.
      It seems dictators often come from the regions or even different countries.
      Hitler, Napoleon, Stalin. Musolini was a small town kid who also lived in Switzerland and Austria-Hungary. Saddam Hussein and Gaddafi were kind of outsiders. My theory breaks down with some of the military dictators though.
      I guess the insiders already have the power and wealth the outsiders want.

      @@antoniochiodi4183 I'm not sure I agree with some of what you've said there. Yes, quite a few dictators have come from less privaleged
      backgrounds but, then again, some have not. Most paint their own version of their history. Also not all people from less privileged backgrounds go on to be mass murderers.
      Don't forget that politicians can be chameleons and often portray the image that benefits them most to the particular audience. Hitler would wear a suit or a uniform depending on the audience he was trying to win over. Musolini, like Putin, took his shirt off and did 'manly' things to project an image. The way to win over an audience is to make it appear you are one of them. You share their troubles. Even if you are actually a multimillionaire and have never had to ride a bus. Hitler was not quite as poor as he liked to make out. These guys write their own backstory.
      Once they've 'made it' they have whole teams of people managing their image. They are the stars of their own movies.
      Many dictators were far from efficient, depending on how you define efficiency. Most of their strategies were centered around their own survival so they often pitted potential rivals against each other or let different groups fight it out. Stalin destroyed the agricultural economy, purged his own military of experienced officers and his early interfering with the way the war was being fought led to disaster. Later he learned
      enough to let the generals do the thinking. His nemesis went in the other direction and started to micromanage with equally disasterous results. Generally speaking the Nazis were very inefficient. They ended up with three armies controlled by different war lords (the Army, the SS, and the Luftwaffe, which had it's own field army divisions). They poured energy into what could be called vanity weapons when they were already short of resources. For purely ideological reasons instead of using trains to ship military supplies they used them to convey people to their deaths.
      Hitler slept until noon and was reputed to hold the belief of the last person who spoke to him. He often set up competing power structures, not for efficiency, but for self survival.
      Lastly if people are inspired by sociopathic mass murderers then I think that is quite worrying and maybe they should look for other role models.
      I'm afraid 'strong men' are often 'wrong men' and the longer they are in power the more mental issues they accumulate. Power corrupts.This is why the US Constitution limited how many terms a president can have and why the countries that don't have that sort of provision often end up with oppressive governments.

      Trivia-Schirach was born in Berlin, the youngest of four children of theatre director, grand ducal chamberlain and retired captain of the cavalry Carl Baily Norris von Schirach (1873-1948) and his American wife Emma Middleton Lynah Tillou (1872-1944)
      three of his four grandparents were from the United States, chiefly from Pennsylvania. Through his mother, Schirach was a descendant of Thomas Heyward Jr. and an indirect descendant of Arthur Middleton, two signatories of the United States Declaration of Independence.
      Also in 1776, Middleton and William Henry Drayton designed the Great Seal of South Carolina. Arthur Middleton's sister, Susannah Middleton, was the great-great-grandmother of Baldur von Schirach, onetime leader of the Hitler Youth and later Governor ("Gauleiter" or "Reichsstatthalter") of the Reichsgau Vienna, who was convicted of "crimes against humanity" at the Nuremberg Trials, through Baldur Von Schirach's mother Emma Middleton Lynah Tillou (1872-1944).
      The United States Navy ship USS Arthur Middleton (AP-55/APA-25) was named for him.
      English was the first language he learned at home and he did not learn to speak German until the age of five. He had two sisters, Viktoria and the opera singer Rosalind von Schirach, and a brother, Karl Benedict von Schirach. His brother committed suicide in 1919 at the age of 19.
      In 31 March 1932 Schirach married the 19-year-old Henriette Hoffmann, the daughter of Heinrich Hoffmann, Adolf Hitler's personal photographer and sometime friend. Schirach's family was vehemently opposed to this marriage, but Hitler insisted.[2] Gregor Strasser dismissively described Schirach as "a young effeminate aristocrat" upon whom Hitler bestowed both Henriette and the Hitler Youth position. Through this relationship, Schirach became part of Hitler's inner circle. The young couple were welcome guests at Hitler's "Berghof".

    A friend of mine was an American researcher for a company in Heidelberg, West Germany in the late 1970s. Albert Speer came to speak at the University in support of his book "Inside the Third Reich." My friend attended. Although WWII had ended more than thirty years earlier and Speer had been a free man for a decade, the Heidelberg University students angrily shouted him off the stage. It might not have been a surprise had they been shouting, "Nazi, Nazi, Nazi," but instead they were shouting "Versager! Versager! Versager!" (Failure! Failure! Failure!) My friend said that's when he realized he didn't understand the German people nearly as well as he had previously thought.

      There is the "Hitler and Mannerheim" recording, but also controversy about whether it is real or not. I'm guessing, even if fake, it would be in the ballpark of how he sounded in private. As you point out, even a quiet speech, is still a speech. Until all the drugs, monkey glands, and Parkinsons kicked in I'm sure he would not have talked in person like he did at a Nuremberg Rally.
      Although he might have ordered a grilled cheese sandwich that way if he was really hungry after a hard day's apocalypsing. But I think he spent half his time watching westerns and had the sleep patterns of a teenager (sorry guys 'n' gals), so a hard day was not really something he'd have recognized.
