Description
The power of the spoken word has been a driving force behind some of history's most significant movements. In the case of the National Socialist Party, from 1919 to 1945, public oratory played a pivotal role in generating and sustaining its vitality. This collection of thirteen key speeches, including Hitler's announcement of the party's reestablishment in 1925, provides a unique insight into the movement's rhetoric and its impact on the German population. The speeches gathered here were a crucial part of the National Socialist movement's media strategy, which included mass addresses broadcast live on radio, taped for re-broadcast, and filmed for play on theater newsreels. This collection sheds light on the movement's use of media to mobilize support and presents a range of perspectives on the role of rhetoric in politics. By examining these speeches, readers can gain a deeper understanding of the National Socialist movement and its use of public oratory to shape public opinion.
