ANALYZING ADOLF HITLER S SPEECH
1. ANALYSIS OF ADOLF HITLER'S SPEECH
Hitler prepares his speeches meticulously and leaves no detail at random. Adopts a
dominant position (above his subjects), and shows an aggressive, emphatic and
emphatic verbal language.
It is a political discourse of a totalitarian nature, whose objective is to inspire the
listener crowd with a personalized maximalist ideology in the leader (Fรผhrer)
The foundation of the discourse focuses on the mythology of a glorious past (Rome),
comparing it with a catastrophic present (crisis, unemployment, debt of the 1st war,
communism)
The emotional psychological stimulus makes the illogical and contradictory
reasoning of Hitler's speech go unnoticed "knowledge does not lead to action, but to
feeling".
The personalization or usurpation of protagonism by the speaker, acting as a
paternalistic savior, creates a nexus between the ideology and the receiver, and
makes it identify with the leader.
A theatrical interpretation is made, and since the oral discourse can not be rationally
analyzed as the written one, the listeners are carried away by the ideological current
that absorbs all those present.
The objective is to hypnotize (kidnap) the public to liberate the collective
subconscious of a people oppressed by their circumstances and by the European
environment. The verbal language is victimizer, and defines the conflict by blaming
one of the parties, and driving the other to a liberating struggle.
Hitler is a catastrophic and apocalyptic leader; he compares the situation in
Germany with the fall of Rome, living the myth as his own. He wants his listeners to
swim in the flow of his words, and once delivered, leads them to an impasse, in which
he proposes two unique solutions: be victims or executioners (all or nothing)
The listener feels that he is part of a larger group when sharing the harangue, but
also sees that if he does not share the leader's ideas, he will be "outside" the group
and become "the enemy".
Those who do not share the ideas of the new Germany of the Reich are compared to
the diseased tissue of a patient "that has to be removed" and cured at any cost. This
disease is represented in Nazism by Jews, homosexuals, the disabled and
communists.
The most repeated words in Hitler's speeches are "Germany" and "people", which
form the union discourse against external enemies and infiltrators, calling on the
Aryan race to distinguish themselves and dominate the world.
