Hitler was orphaned at a young age, rejected by others, left to take care of himself on the streets, and taught to persecute the Jews. Influences in his early life, good and bad, helped shape Adolf Hitler from the young artist to the cruel adolescent who became the dictator we all know today. Adolf Hitler was a mostly average kid growing up, but events in his life molded him. He started off as a mainly normal kid with normal problems.
The name Adolf Hitler is associated with an image of a madman in command; a man of incomprehensible “evil” who was responsible for the unimaginable suffering and death of millions of innocent people. When the German people were celebrating Hitler’s Birthday, a man in a Nazi uniform delivered a speech, ‘“The immoral! The Kommunisten!” … “Die Juden—the Jews!” (Zusak, p. 33)
Later, he would write in his autobiography that the roots of his lifelong hatred of the Jews were planted during these years in Vienna. He gradually became aware, he said, of what he saw as their evil influence on the city’s political, economic, and cultural life. (Giblin 14)” This illustrates that Hitler did indeed have his predispositions before he rose to power. And even at a very young age, Hitler had started to believe that a whole race of people was responsible for all the problems of his life and his city.
Born on the fourth of April, 1889, a boy by the name of Adolf Hitler would one day be known around the world as one of the most evil dictators to have ever lived. Adolf’s early youth seemed to have been highly influenced by his father until his death in 1903, after which he began to exhibit rebellious behavior. He started to fail in school and eventually quit formal education all together in 1905 and started exploring the depths of his artistic levels. In 1907, when his mother died, he moved to Vienna, planning to enrol in a famed academy of fine arts. He was rejected admission that year and the next thus leading him to a deep depression as he began to drift away from his friends.
During the 1950’s there were several breakthroughs that African Americans were able to succeed in accomplishing. Some of these successes consist of President Truman ordering the desegregation of the armed forces in 1948, although this process was not completed until 1954. The next breakthrough was in 1954 when the Brown vs. the Board of Education case was heard within the court system and won. They stated that the separation of black and white schools did not prove equality.
How did Hitler, a young innocent Austrian boy, become the evilest man in history? It all started with Hitler’s dream of being an artist. Hitler didn’t want to do any art he wanted to become a commercial artist. Hitler would submit his art to a museum but the museum would reject his art. After being rejected, Hitler joined the Nazis.
Hitler was from a broken home and with the death of his mother in december of 1907 and father in january of 1903. He then

He then moved to Vienna between 1908 and 1913 to try and gain access to the academy once again but failed. Adolf made very little money during this period and had to live in homeless shelters until 1909 when he started to paint watercolors for a business partner. While Hitler resided in Vienna, he was influenced by a man named Lueger who actively imposed anti-Jewish stereotypes forming Jews as the adversary to Germany. It wasn’t until 1913 that Hitler decided to leave Vienna for Munich which is where he was when World War I started (Gurian). While Hitler was an Austrian citizen, he still became a corporal in the German army.
As people grow and mature some of their motives stay the same but it is their tactics, their way of getting what they want, that is what changes. And in this case Hitler had grown into so much power and had sunk his roots into the people when they were in a time of need after world war one, and they found refuge in him. They saw him as a very powerful individual who seemed to know what he wanted ad how he was going to get it. So in short they trusted him with their lives. And Hitler got so power hungry that he was willing to do whatever to create a master race, one that he saw fit to rule and populate the earth.
His father wanted him to enter the Habsburg Civil Service, but Adolf wanted to become an artist. After his father 's death, Hitler pursued his dream and took an entrance exam to the Vienna Academy of the Arts. He failed to gain acceptance. After his mother dies, Adolf moved to Vienna, hoping to win acceptance into the Academy of Arts. Adolf would run into money problems and start painting watercolor paintings of Vienna.
Hitler was a German soldier in World War I. Germany’s economy blew up, and he believed that Jews were to blame for Germany’s loss in that war and for their economy to blow up. That is when Hitler wanted to begin what he did. Anti-semitism had been a belief, but Hitler took it to an extreme. Hitler wanted everyone to believe in anti-semitism. Hitler believed that Jews should no longer live during any time.
Many historians are not certain when Hitler became ant-Semitic. Epstein (2003, p. 48) states that in Hitler’s book chapter 2 of Mein Kampf, he relates to how he became “an anti-Semite”. At first the allegations against the Jews in Vienna shocked Hitler but after careful observation, “that the gross charges against Jews were all true” (Epstein, 2003, p. 48). Hitler then states in his book that Jews are both communists and capitalists, that they are “traffickers in the white slave trade, that they were responsible for Germany’s surrender in the First World War, if not stopped, they will destroy the civilized world”
Adolf Hitler was born in Austria, on April 20, 1889. He was an officer who fought in the army in World War I. After World War I, Hitler returned to Munich and worked as an intelligence officer, where he monitored the activities of the German Workers’ Party, also known as the Nazi Party. Hitler adopted many of the anti-Semitic, nationalist, and anti-Marxist ideas during this period of his life. He rose to power in German politics after joining the party which he was monitoring as an army officer, and became its leader. Hitler became chancellor of Germany in 1933, and served as a dictator from 1934 to 1945.
