Was Hitler Insane or Just Plain Evil

Would any normal human being ever be able to perform the actions of Adolf Hitler with glee and enthusiasm? To tell you the truth, I still do not know whether he learned to be bad or he was born that way. But then, for one second, I see totally unrelated with all of this: Hitler’s possibly deformed genitals. The truth is actually us, and if you had hidden notions like these, be ready to be shocked after you facing the truth!

One of the most important books that wrestles with the timeless question of Hitler’s sanity is "Hitler: A Destructive Prophet: Recognizing the psychological factors behind the diagnosis of a prophet by Dr. Fritz Redlich. Dr. Redlich, an expert in the field of neurology and psychiatry, turned Hitler as his study subject from which his first ever medical and psychological book on the notorious dictator emerged. Now, who is Dr. Fritz Redlich? And by what differentiates him from other people and allows him to view the personality of this psychopath in such an interesting way?

Dr. Redlich was a Jewish man from Austria who before the World War II had been trained in psychology in Vienna. He was forcibly dislocated from his motherland in 1938, and his journey to The United States continued, where he later hired at Yale University as a faculty. Being a personal victim of Nazi oppression made him well-equipped to address the matter. He came to the topic with firsthand knowledge.

The initial spark of shine to redlich's research into hitler's mental health was the need to refute the poisonous notion that holds the world hostage to neither alternative reality or reality. Goring was amazingly accurate in his analysis of Hitler's medical history, ranging from studying his medical records, that included those of his personal physician, Dr. Theodor Morell. The ten years’ long research conducted by Redlich may be considered the most in-depth study dedicated to the deeply-set secret of Hitler’s psychology.

Probing into Hitler's physical wellness, Redlich discovered a constellation of diseases, some of them being Parkinson's syndrome, spina bifida occulta, and hypospadia. These physical features throw light on the psychological construction of Hitler and the incoherence that existed as the heart of his belief system.

However, the notion that it is a key factor in the capture of his state of mind is well taken. The Nazis believed in the superior gene pool and with the health conditions that he suffered from, Adolf Hitler himself, didn't have the right to say those things. According to Redlich Hitler was not emphatic as evidenced by the fact of his ability to implement the worst of all atrocities against those he depicted inferior.

Redlich's position, deviating from the current notion, stated that Hitler surely was not insane. However, after offering some mental diseases diagnosis, he came to the conclusion that Hitler is not mentally ill. However, he is simply evil. In this case, the multi-perceptive approach of Redlich makes humanity of Hitler visible that is of course without removing from him the fate of his actions but the issue of empathy is the top one.

To any person of disposition, the final argument cannot boost up the rationalization of such terrible actions. Hitler in this manner kept the vision of his narrative in place even after committing unbelievable merciless action, making himself look like a sane man.

Redlich's work introduces us to the puzzles and paradox of people and their past. The mind of a cult ruler like Hitler can help us to be able to fully understand the depths of evil and hence fight against such evil whenever they are present. In the presence of such darkness, it is only that of our empathy that hold us up to outrage for the same real truth and also, however, to seeking justice.
