    Die letzten Tage Adolf Hitlers --- Eine Darstellung für das 21. Jahrhundert in Oliver HIRSCHBIEGEL s Der Untergang by Stefanie Krüger A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in German Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2006 © Stefanie Krüger 2006 Author’s declaration for electronic submission of a thesis I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. iii Abstract The film Der Untergang (2004), directed by Oliver HIRSCHBIEGEL and written and produced by Bernd EICHINGER , is based on Joachim FEST ’s historical monograph Der Untergang (2002) and Traudl JUNGE ’s and Melissa MÜLLER ’s Bis zur letzten Stunde (2003). Taking place in April, 1945, the movie depicts the last days of Adolf Hitler and his staff in the ‘Führerbunker’. The appearance of the film sparked wide-spread controversy concerning the propriety of Germans illuminating this most controversial aspect of their history. Specifically, the debate centred on the historical accuracy of the film and the dangers associated with the filmmakers’ goal of portraying Hitler not as a caricature or one-sided figure but rather as a complete human being whose troubles and human qualities might well earn the sympathy of the viewers. After surveying a variety of films that portray Adolf Hitler, the thesis analyses Der Untergang by focusing first on the cinematic and narrative aspects of the film itself and then on the figure of Hitler.

The Buddha lived and taught in the northeastern Indian subcontinent some time between the 6th and 4th centuries BCE.[2] He is recognized by adherents as an awakened teacher who shared his insights to help sentient beings end suffering (or dukkha), achieve nirvana, and escape what is seen as a cycle of suffering and rebirth. Two major branches of Buddhism are recognized: Theravada ("The School of the Elders") and Mahayana ("The Great Vehicle"). Theravada—the oldest surviving branch—has a widespread following in Sri Lanka and Southeast Asia, and Mahayana is found throughout East Asia and includes the traditions of Pure Land, Zen, Nichiren Buddhism, Tibetan Buddhism, Shingon, Tendai and Shinnyo-en. In some classifications Vajrayana, a subcategory of Mahayana, is recognized as a third branch.

  • Hitlers Nervenkrankheit. Eine Neurologisch-Psychiatrische Studie
    ELLEN GIBBELS HITLERS NERVENKRANKHEIT Eine neurologisch-psychiatrische Studie 1. Zielsetzung, Quellenlage, Auswertungsmodus Die historische Hitlerforschung hat bisher von dem Problem einer möglichen Nerven­ krankheit Adolf Hitlers mit nicht nur körperlichen, sondern vielleicht auch psychi­ schen Beeinträchtigungen kaum Notiz genommen. Dieses Faktum ist für den Medizi­ ner erstaunlich. Wahrscheinlich erklärt es sich mit der immer wieder bemerkenswerten Unkenntnis auch des gebildeten medizinischen Laien, wenn es um Fragen der Neuro­ logie und Psychiatrie geht. Dementsprechend wurde von den Historikern eine unter Hitlers Ärzten bestehende retrospektive Kontroverse kaum beachtet: War ein bei Hit­ ler in den letzten Lebensjahren zu beobachtendes Zittern ein „hysterisches" Symptom oder die Folge einer Parkinsonschen Krankheit? Percy Ernst Schramm hat sich mit dieser Frage und den zu implizierenden Folgerungen zumindest am Rande auseinan­ dergesetzt. Er schrieb 1963: „Ist es möglich, hier nachträglich noch Klarheit zu schaf­ fen? Es müßte alles versucht werden, dieses große Fragezeichen in Hitlers Biographie auszumerzen. Denn eine Folge der Parkinsonschen Krankheit sind Verkrampfungen im Gehirn, die dessen Tätigkeit negativ beeinflussen."1 Abgesehen von dem Passus „Verkrampfungen im Gehirn", ist dieser Formulierung von neurologisch-psychiatri­ scher Seite beizupflichten. Die Parkinsonsche Erkrankung ist nämlich durchaus in der Lage, die Gehirntätigkeit durch komplizierte Stoffwechselveränderungen und Ner­ venzelldegenerationen sogar entscheidend

  • Der Untergang
    www.kirkeogfilm.dk Der Untergang Den totalitære tankes fallit Af Peter Skov-Jakobsen Den omdiskuterede film om livet i Hitlers førerbunker i de sidste dage op til det tredje riges fald giver et kig lukt ind i forkrøblede, umenneskelige og forbandede sind. Virkeligheden har det med at være skræmmende. På baggrund af Traudl Junges beretning som Hitlers privatsekretær og Joachim Fests store biografi om Hitler har Oliver Hirschbirgel drejet denne film om de sidste dage i Berlin. Vi følger livet i den såkaldte Førerbunker. I ny og næ får vi et kig ud i det Berlin hvor der bliver kæmpet fra hus til hus og hvor destruktionen æder byen op. De fleste af os har aldrig oplevet kanontorden under andre omstændigheder end i den planlagte militære øvelse. Denne film byder sin seer en oplevelse hvordan det er at leve når granaterne falder tæt. Fra begyndelsen af filmen sidder man anspændt og ser døden fortære mennesker og bygninger. Det er så rystende, pludseligt og brutalt som det må være i virkeligheden. Beskyttet af jord og beton vandrer den tyske ledelse rundt. Regeringsapparatet er tilsyneladende intakt. Man får dog i et -1- www.kirkeogfilm.dk tilbageblik Hitler at se da han i begyndelsen af krigen ansatte privatsekretæren. Den nervøse piger stiller op foran Føreren og aner ikke hvordan de skal gebærde sig over for den gudelignende skikkelse. Han optræder som hyggelig og bedstefaragtigt. Han udvælger sig en sekretær, og man får mere det indtryk at det drejer sig om et sentimentalt valg end om et sagligt. Hun er fra München – hans elskede by hvor alt begyndte.

  • Fabricating the Death of Adolf Hitler Part 3
    The Soviets' futile search for the real Hitler corpse he evidence I have discussed so far establishes that, during the last days of the Third Reich, multiple cremations were carried out in the Reich Chancellery grounds in front of sundry witnesses who had been persuaded to believe that the Tbodies they saw being cremated were those of Adolf and Eva Hitler. It would also appear that Heusemann and Echtmann, the two dental workers associated with Hitler's dentist, Professor Blaschke, deceived themselves into thinking that they possessed The Hitler suicide sufficient expertise to identify the human remains recovered by the Soviets as those of story was used by Adolf and Eva Hitler. The progress of the Soviet investigation was so rapid, however, that it had begun to fall apart even before the problems with Heusemann's and Echtmann's the British as a evidence could have been detected. The Soviets' problems began on 8 May—the day the autopsy of the putative Hitler remains weapon of was carried out—when a "bullet-torn and battered body of a man identified as Hitler" was found in the ruins of the bunker.1 An American war correspondent, Joseph ("Joe") W. Grigg, psychological Jr, proudly announced from Berlin that Hitler's body had almost certainly been found. Grigg was soon forced to retract his scoop, however. On 10 May, he reported that "[f]our bodies, warfare to discredit blackened and charred, that seem to answer to Hitler's general appearance have been dragged out of the [Chancellery] ruins". He observed that "none has been identified as being National Socialism definitely that of the Nazi Fu e h r e r ".
