Podcast appearances and mentions of erich ludendorff

Volle zehn Jahre hatten die Bayreuther Festspiele seit dem Beginn des Ersten Weltkriegs im Jahr 1914 pausiert, um bei der Wiederaufnahme des Festspielbetriebs im Sommer 1924 sogleich einen mittleren Eklat zu provozieren: In Anwesenheit zahlreicher prominenter Figuren der rechts-völkischen Szene wie etwa Erich Ludendorff geriet die Premiere der Meistersinger am 22. Juli zu einem Manifest nationalistischer Gesinnung, als das versammelte Publikum die berühmt-berüchtigte Schlussansprache des Hans Sachs wider den ‘welschen Tand‘ mit dem stehend gesungenen Deutschlandlied beantwortete. Ähnliche Reaktionen waren in Hamburg natürlich nicht zu verzeichnen, als wenige Wochen später im dortigen Stadt-Theater an der Dammtorstraße, dem Vor-Vorgängerbau der heutigen Hamburgischen Staatsoper, eine ähnlich lang ersehnte Neueinstudierung des Ring des Nibelungen über die Bühne ging. Berührungspunkte mit Bayreuth gab es indes hinsichtlich der Besetzung. Walter Soomer aus Leipzig, der in Bayreuth 1924 mehrere große Basspartien gesungen hatte, etwa war in Hamburg als Wotan engagiert. Und in durchaus etwas kurios anmutender Weise widmete der Kritiker des Hamburger Fremdenblattes, bei dem es sich vermutlich um Heinrich Chevalley handelt, am 26. August 1924 fast seine gesamte Rezension des Rheingold dieser Personalie. Es liest Frank Riede.

Neden ‘meydan okuma'?.. Çünkü, emperyal Batı ile aynı telden çalan muhalefetimiz, hükûmet ağzıyla kuş tutsa, TBMM'den en ‘devrimci' yasaları geçirse bile takacak kulp arayıp, mutlaka da buluyor. Sık sık dile getirdiğimiz metaforda olduğu gibi; Sayın Cumhurbaşkanı İstanbul Boğazı'nı deniz üstünden yürüyerek geçse, “Yüzmeyi de bilmiyor!” diye eleştiriverecekler… Devlet aklı ile iletişim aklının bir kez daha kol kola girip sahaya çıkması gereken bir konuyla, Vergi düzenlemesi meselesiyle karşı karşıyayız. Nedeni çok basit… Yasal düzenleme, Meclis'ten geçmemişken sadece Teklif düzeyindeyken bile muhalefet ve trolleri yaygarayı basmaya başladılar. Whatsapp gruplarında, sosyal medyada ve meslek ilkelerini bir kenara bırakıp bunlarla aynı karakter ve tutumda davranmayı ilke edinmiş başta Saraçhane medyası olmak üzere bazı medya organlarında tezvirat aldı yürüdü: “Dağ, fare doğurdu…” “Bunların yaptığı zenginden alıp fakire vermek değil, fakirden alıp zengine vermek…” Bu iddialarını desteklemek için Nibor Dooh ismini de kullanıyorlar; zenginden alıp fakire vermesiyle meşhur Robin Hood'un tersten yazılışı… “Yurt dışı çıkış harcı için 3 bin lira diyorlardı, 500 liraya indiler. Önce eşeğini kaybettirip, sonra buldurma hikâyesi…” “Herhâlde sadece avukatlar, doktorlar ve serbest meslek mensupları için Yasa çıkarıyorlar; nerede büyük başlar?!..” Benzer durum Tasarruf Tedbirleriyle İlgili Genelge sürecinde de yaşanmıştı… O zaman da iletişimin hak ettiği şekilde yönetilmesinde sorunlar olduğunu dile getirmiştik. Korkarız, şimdi de vergi uygulamalarıyla ilgili düzenlemede aynı sorunları tecrübe etmek durumunda kalabiliriz. Peki, ne yapmak lazım? Almanya'nın ünlü komutanlarından Erich Ludendorff'un 1937 tarihli “Der totale Krieg” kitabına adını veren “topyekûn savaş” kavramı tam da burada işimize yarayabilir… Ya da başka bir deyişle; topyekûn mücadele…

Am 26. Februar 1924 war es soweit: Vor dem bayerischen Volksgericht beim Landgericht München I begann der Hochverratsprozess gegen Adolf Hitler, Erich Ludendorff und acht Mitangeklagte wegen des versuchten Staatsstreiches gegen die Republik vom 9. November des vergangenen Jahres. Nicht angeklagt wurden der bayerische Generalstaatskommissar Gustav von Kahr, der Landeskommandant der Reichswehr in Bayern Otto von Lossow und der Chef der Bayerischen Landespolizei Hans von Seißer, die in die Putschpläne ursprünglich eingeweiht, in dessen Verlauf jedoch abgesprungen waren. Ihre Rolle war es jedoch, die an den ersten Prozesstagen im Mittelpunkt der Verhandlungen stand; wobei die überforderten oder unwilligen Laienrichter es zuließen, dass Hitler und seine Mitstreiter diese „Zeugen“ teilweise von der Anklagebank aus selbst in der Art von Anklägern verhörten. Der Gerichtsreport des Berliner Tageblattes vom 27. Februar konzentriert sich dabei vornehmlich auf die Aussagen des Angeklagten Friedrich Weber, der sich als Leiter eines Freiwilligenkorps am Hitlerputsch beteiligt hatte. Es liest Frank Riede.

Wie gestern angekündigt, kommt heute wegen des Buchdruckerstreiks eine Zeitung zu Wort, die wir selten durchforsten: die Niederbarnimer Zeitung. In ihrer Ausgabe vom 12. November 1923, die 30 Milliarden Mark kostete, widmet sie sich Erich Ludendorff, der 3 Tage zuvor zusammen mit Hitler den Marsch auf die Feldherrenhalle angeführt hatte und noch am selben Tage verhaftet worden war. Würde er im Gefängnis landen? Schon nach seiner Beteiligung am Kapp-Putsch im Jahre 1920 war er glimpflich davongekommen, zehrte von seinem Nimbus als Held des Ersten Weltkriegs. Während wir im Laufe des Novembers in anderen Zeitungen bissige und sogar vernichtende Kommentare zu Ludendorff finden, wird er hier sehr milde für seine Rolle beim Putsch kritisiert – damit hat der Artikel eine Tendenz, die sich auch bei der Justiz durchsetzen sollte, denn Ludendorff wurde auch für diese verräterische Handlung aufgrund der angeblichen großen Verdienste im Ersten Weltkrieg freigesprochen. Was es in Friedrichshagen, Rahnsdorf und Fichtenau dazu zu lesen gab, teilt uns Paula Rosa Leu mit.

Am 1. und 2. September 1923 trafen sich in Nürnberg die völkischen Wehrverbände zum „Deutschen Tag“, bei dem zehntausende unter den Augen von Adolf Hitler und Erich Ludendorff und zahlreichen geladenen Adeligen aufmarschierten. Aus den Verbänden SA und Reichsflagge und Bund Oberland wurde der „Deutsche Kampfbund“ gegründet. Die Reden ließen keine Zweifel daran, dass ein gewaltsamer Umsturz angestrebt wird und bayrische Polizeiverbände marschierten munter mit und hielten die Völkischen nicht von Gewalttaten gegen Arbeiter ab. Im Vorwärts wurde nicht nur über die Vorkommnisse in Nürnberg berichtet. In der Ausgabe vom 6. September, die 80.000 Mark kostete, wagt Hans Bauer einen leicht spöttischen und zugleich erschreckend zutreffenden Blick in die Zukunft, der die Diktatur mit ihren Gummi-Paragraphen beschreibt. Frank Riede schildert uns den Zwang zur Liebe.

In the early 20th century, a vast tapestry of tensions - national, political, and social - hung heavily over Europe. It was a volatile era of conflicting interests and loyalties, waiting for a spark to ignite it. This spark came with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary, setting off a chain of events that spiraled into the devastating cataclysm of the First World War. At the epicenter of this chaos stood two formidable giants - Imperial Germany and Tsarist Russia, each yearning for control, dominance, and security. In a vast theatre of battles and bloodshed, one encounter would emerge as a cornerstone, a turning point that would change the course of the war and etch itself deeply into the annals of history - the Battle of Tannenberg. In the verdant, sprawling plains of East Prussia, armies prepared for a confrontation that would test their courage, resolve, and strategic genius. The tale of Tannenberg is a compelling story of bold decisions and tactical blunders, of strategic prowess and human frailty. It is a tale of leaders like Paul von Hindenburg, Erich Ludendorff, Alexander Samsonov, and Paul von Rennenkampf, whose destinies became entwined in this critical battle, their actions reverberating across time. In the ensuing chaos, an unexpected and decisive victory would tilt the scales, sending shockwaves throughout the entire theatre of war. The repercussions of Tannenberg were felt far beyond the blood-soaked fields of East Prussia, altering strategies, affecting morale, and setting the stage for political upheavals that would reshape the world. Journey with us as we step back into the tumultuous days of 1914, tracing the events from the bustling streets of Sarajevo, through the tense war offices in Berlin and St. Petersburg, to the misty, eerie quietude of the East Prussian landscape. Together, we'll retrace the paths of soldiers and generals, monarchs and commoners, as we weave our way through the captivating, poignant, and unforgettable narrative of the Battle of Tannenberg.

In dieser Folge von "Zugehört" diskutiert Markus Pöhlmann vom Zentrum für Militärgeschichte und Sozialwissenschaften der Bundeswehr mit dem Historiker Dr. Peter Tauber über das Krisenjahr 1923 und die Nachwirkungen des Ersten Weltkrieges auf die Weimarer Republik. Im Jahr 1923 stürzte die junge Weimarer Republik in eine schwere Krise. Im Januar besetzten französische und belgische Truppen im Streit um Kriegsreparationen das Ruhrgebiet. Die Regierung reagierte darauf mit der Ausrufung des passiven Widerstands. Hyperinflation, Auseinandersetzungen zwischen Reichsregierung und den Regierungen in Thüringen, Sachsen und Bayern spitzten sich zu. Ende Oktober probte die Kommunistische Partei in Hamburg den Aufstand. Am 9. November putschen rechtsextremistische Republikgegner unter der Führung von Adolf Hitler und Erich Ludendorff in München. In diesem Podcast fragen wir danach: Wieviel Weltkrieg steckte eigentlich noch in dem Konflikt des Jahres 1923? Woher kam die Gewalt? Wie gelang die Beendigung der Krise? Die GesprächspartnerDr. habil. Markus Pöhlmann ist wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter des ZMSBw. Er leitet dort den Projektbereich "Erster Weltkrieg" und außerdem das Großprojekt "Reichswehr. Die Republik und ihre Streitkräfte, 1919 bis 1935". Dr. Peter Tauber ist Historiker und war zwischen 2009 und 2021 Mitglied des Deutschen Bundestages (CDU). Als Parlamentarischer Staatssekretär im Bundesministerium der Verteidigung von 2018 bis 2021 hat er auch die Arbeit des ZMSBw kennengelernt. Gegenwärtig arbeitet Dr. Tauber an einer Monografie zum Hitlerputsch von 1923. Mit seinem Twitter-Projekt #krisenjahr1923 berichtet er täglich von großen und kleinen Begebenheiten aus diesem historischen Jahr.

Det var som spion för armén som Adolf Hitler först engagerade sig i det lilla högerextrema partiet DPA, senare Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (NSDAP) i det politiskt turbulenta München. Inledningsvis hade Adolf Hitler inga ambitioner att leda partiet utan såg sig själv främst som talare och propagandist.Efter ett misslyckat kuppförsök 1923 och en kort period i fängelse ledde talaren Adolf Hitler i början på 1930-talet partiet till stora valframgångar genom ett oändligt antal massmöten. Det politiska djuret Hitler hade också en instinkt för taktik som bidrog till nazisternas väg till maktövertagande.Detta är det andra av fyra avsnitt om nazistledaren Adolf Hitler som satte hela världen i brand och iscensatte folkmordet på sex miljoner judar och andra folkgrupper.Programledare Urban Lindstedt samtalar med Martin Hårdstedt, professor i Historia vid Umeå universitet utifrån historikern Ian Kershaws biografi i två volymer: Hitler 1889-1936 Hubris samt Hitler 1936-1945 Nemesis.Adolf Hitler hade som politisk utbildare för armén upptäckt att han hade en förmåga att fånga en publik som talare. Han kunde trollbinda publiken på stora ölhallar i München med en häxbrygd av antisemitism och dolkstötslegenden om att den tyska armén inte hade besegrats på slagfältet under första världskriget utan av politikerna hemma.Få individer i världshistorien har satt ett sådant negativt avtryck som nazistledaren Adolf Hitler. Andra världskriget hade kanske brutit ut utan Hitler, men frågan är om de tyska erövringarna i Öst hade fått samma karaktär av utrotningskrig utan Hitler. Det industriella folkmordet på 6 miljoner judar hade troligen inte heller skett utan Adolf Hitler som führer.Den bohemiske Adolf Hitler, som fortfarande i 30-årsåldern aldrig haft ett riktigt arbete, var ingen organisatör. Och han skydde först positionen som ledare för NSDAP, men i takt med att hans följare såg honom som ledare kom han att med tiden styra partiet med järnhand.Det var den misslyckade nazistiska ölkällarkuppen i München 1923 som gjorde den okände Adolf Hitler till en rikskändis. Han kom att utnyttja rättegången som en plattform för att sprida sitt politiska budskap. Under den mycket bekväma fängelsetiden skrev också Hitler sin politiska självbiografi Mein Kampf. Efter kuppen ändrades också strategin för maktövertagande bort från utomparlamentariska medel till valurnorna.Men Adolf Hitler hade aldrig varit möjlig utan det första världskrig och den tyska kapitulationen som också formade honom som människa. De hårda fredsvillkoren och höga krigsskadestånden gav aldrig Weimar-republiken en verklig chans. Hyperinflationen 1923-24 och senare den ekonomiska krisen efter kraschen på Wall Street i USA 1929 var en näringsrik grogrund för extremism från både höger och vänster i Tyskland. Detta tillsammans med nazisternas våldsamma hänsynslöshet mot sina motståndare öppnade vägen mot makten.Bild: Åtalade i ölhallskuppen vid rättegången, 1 april 1924.

This is the ninth installment in Eric Ludy's epic summer Daily Thunder series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW1. This episode investigates the life of Erich Ludendorff and his spectacular rise to worldwide fame in and through his exploits at the Battle of Liège in August of 1914. In a general sense, Ludendorff is not a character that Christians should emulate. But when he bangs on the gates of the Citadel in Liège on April 6, 1914, he models something that should cause every Christian to sit up and take notice.

Rather than use emotion to make decisions, we need to use facts and information to understand the history of the current situation in Ukraine. If you care to examine the facts, you will see that the West (US and Europe) instigated the current crisis in Ukraine.

Heller decision in 2008, gun control advocates have parsed every word of Justice Antonin Scalia's opinion for ways in which to continue their campaign against the Second Amendment. Relying on creative interpretations of dicta, these activists try to twist the landmark gun rights ruling into an endorsement of their anti-gun policies. An example of these efforts is on display in the NRA-supported case New York Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen. The case concerns the validity New York's discretionary carry licensing regime, where law enforcement is tasked with determining if an applicant has “proper cause” to carry a firearm for self-defense. (Click Here for Full Article)   From www.smithsonianmag.com: In July 1918, Erich Posselt wrote a poem. “It wasn't a very good poem,” he would write later, “and it was decidedly not for publication.” But it landed him in an American internment camp for 17 months. It began like this. The poem's six (presumably American) aviators bumble through Germany, each falling victim to the varied ravages of gout, Munich beer, and the well-known general Erich Ludendorff. Posselt was a young editor and translator who emigrated from Austria-Hungary in 1914. His nationality—like that of millions of German-speaking immigrants in the United States during World War I—attracted suspicion and anger from nationalistic Americans. In the course of the war, the federal government registered around half a million “enemy alien” civilians, spied on many of them, and sent approximately 6,000 men and a few women to internment camps.

Historian and author Alex Clifford talks about his recent book on Hindenburg and Ludendorff and how their Great War experience assisted in the rise of Hitler and the Nazis. He explores two of twentieth-century history's most significant figures who have been largely forgotten – Paul von Hindenburg and Erich Ludendorff, Germany's First World War leaders, […]

In the first episode of 2022, we discuss some of the topics seen in Alex's new book Hindenburg, Ludendorff & Hitler, including Erich Ludendorff's post-war writings and memoirs, which allow for a glimpse into his mental state following the harrowing defeat of World War I. As well, we examine Paul von Hindenburg's close relationship with Hitler and the Nazis after they took power, and debunk some popular thoughts about Hindenburg and the Nazis.

A hero of the Imperial German Army (by his own account), an architect of the rise of two dictatorships, a co-creator of a mystical neo-pagan religion, and an author, General Erich Ludendorff was a force to be reckoned with. A BETTER PEACE welcomes Jay Lockenour to the virtual studio to discuss his most recent look at the persona of Ludendorff as one of the most prominent Germans of the 21st century. Jay joins podcast editor Ron Granieri to talk about Ludendorff's relationship with Hindenburg, Hitler, his wife Mathilde and his behavior in the Interwar Years. TRANSCRIPT: https://warroom.armywarcollege.edu/wp-content/uploads/21-110-TOO-WEIRD-FOR-THE-NAZIS-ERICH-LUDENDORFF-Transcript.pdf

Wer hat nicht alles schon Ehrendoktorwürden verliehen bekommen. Mal passen Titel und Person besser mal schlechter zusammen. Als dem General a.D. Erich Ludendorff ein Ehrendoktor der medizinischen Fakultät verliehen wurde, kommentierte der Vorwärts am 24. August 1921 amüsiert. Es liest Frank Riede.

Erich Ludendorff is a contentious figure in military history. Focused, energetic, and hailing from humble origins, Ludendorff rose through the ranks of the largely aristocratic late-nineteenth century German officer corps to play a leading role in the First World War. As a field officer at Liège and Tannenberg, as a driving force behind the development of the Siegfried Line, and as the architect of the 1918 German Spring Offensive, Ludendorff consistently demonstrated a formidable military acumen and a penchant for tactical, if not always strategic, innovation. Over the past century, that wartime record garnered more than its fair share of respect—and not an insignificant amount of awe—from numerous First World War scholars. Those who look upon Ludendorff’s martial prowess with admiration, however, face a dilemma: how to reconcile Ludendorff’s military achievements with his abhorrent post war activities and beliefs. The one-time Quartermaster General of the German Army did not acquit himself well in the post war world. Germany’s surrender in November 1918 strongly contradicted Ludendorff’s reputation as a Feldherr or “Battle Lord.” Trying to comprehend that disconnect led Ludendorff down a path of antisemitism, conspiratorial thinking, right wing nationalist politics, fringe spirituality, personal and professional conflict, and flirtation with Adolf Hitler and the Nazi regime. Overwhelmingly, Ludendorff’s biographers have explained away these sordid details by attributing them to a nervous breakdown Ludendorff suffered in August 1918. But, writing in his most recent work, Dragonslayer: The Legend of Erich Ludendorff in the Weimar Republic and Third Reich (Cornell University Press, 2021), historian Jay Lockenour argues that questions of Ludendorff’s sanity are besides the point. Whether sane or not, Ludendorff was an influential figure in Weimar and Nazi Germany—a position he maintained, Louckenour contends, through the conscious construction of a mythic identity that personified far right politics, pagan spirituality, and the German public’s thirst for revenge. Meticulously researched and lucidly argued, Dragonslayer reveals the true extent of Erich Ludendorff’s impact on the political cultures of the Weimar Republic and the Third Reich. It is a must read for scholars of the First World War and for curious readers interested in understanding the evolution of Germany from nascent republic to Fascist dictatorship in the lead up to the Second World War. Jay Lockenour is Associate Professor of History at Temple University. He is author of Soldiers as Citizens and former host of the New Books in Military History podcast.

Germany’s surrender in November 1918 strongly contradicted Ludendorff’s reputation as a Feldherr or “Battle Lord.” Trying to comprehend that disconnect led Ludendorff down a path of antisemitism, conspiratorial thinking, right wing nationalist politics, fringe spirituality, personal and professional conflict, and flirtation with Adolf Hitler and the Nazi regime. Overwhelmingly, Ludendorff’s biographers have explained away these sordid details by attributing them to a nervous breakdown Ludendorff suffered in August 1918. But, writing in his most recent work, Dragonslayer: The Legend of Erich Ludendorff in the Weimar Republic and Third Reich (Cornell University Press, 2021), historian Jay Lockenour argues that questions of Ludendorff’s sanity are besides the point. Whether sane or not, Ludendorff was an influential figure in Weimar and Nazi Germany—a position he maintained, Louckenour contends, through the conscious construction of a mythic identity that personified far right politics, pagan spirituality, and the German public’s thirst for revenge. Meticulously researched and lucidly argued, Dragonslayer reveals the true extent of Erich Ludendorff’s impact on the political cultures of the Weimar Republic and the Third Reich. It is a must read for scholars of the First World War and for curious readers interested in understanding the evolution of Germany from nascent republic to Fascist dictatorship in the lead up to the Second World War.

Erich Ludendorff is a contentious figure in military history. Focused, energetic, and hailing from humble origins, Ludendorff rose through the ranks of the largely aristocratic late-nineteenth century German officer corps to play a leading role in the First World War. As a field officer at Liège and Tannenberg, as a driving force behind the development of the Siegfried Line, and as the architect of the 1918 German Spring Offensive, Ludendorff consistently demonstrated a formidable military acumen and a penchant for tactical, if not always strategic, innovation. Over the past century, that wartime record garnered more than its fair share of respect—and not an insignificant amount of awe—from numerous First World War scholars. Those who look upon Ludendorff’s martial prowess with admiration, however, face a dilemma: how to reconcile Ludendorff’s military achievements with his abhorrent post war activities and beliefs. The one-time Quartermaster General of the German Army did not acquit himself well in the post war world. Germany’s surrender in November 1918 strongly contradicted Ludendorff’s reputation as a Feldherr or “Battle Lord.” Trying to comprehend that disconnect led Ludendorff down a path of antisemitism, conspiratorial thinking, right wing nationalist politics, fringe spirituality, personal and professional conflict, and flirtation with Adolf Hitler and the Nazi regime. Overwhelmingly, Ludendorff’s biographers have explained away these sordid details by attributing them to a nervous breakdown Ludendorff suffered in August 1918. But, writing in his most recent work, Dragonslayer: The Legend of Erich Ludendorff in the Weimar Republic and Third Reich (Cornell University Press, 2021), historian Jay Lockenour argues that questions of Ludendorff’s sanity are besides the point.

Today, we are joined by Professor, Historian, and Author Jay Lockenour to discuss a man we talked about all the way back in Episode 1 of History's Most: Erich Ludendorff. We discuss his post-war life, including his mental breakdown (and whether it should be considered relevant), close association (and then disassociation) with the Nazis, the creation of the Tannenberg League, how his wife impacted his political beliefs, and much more.

Our first episode investigates Erich Ludendorff, Germany's World War One general. We examine his fascinating life, and explore the fateful decisions he made which had dire consequences for European history. We discuss his accountability for unleashing the Bolshevik Revolution, unnecessarily prolonging WWI, undermining German democracy and aiding the fledgling Nazi movement. Ludendorff's story takes us on a 20th Century odyssey of war, plots, conspiracy theories, political extremism and mental health.

The most important task at the 1919 Paris Peace Conference was the drafting of peace terms for the losers of the war. Germany and Austria assumed Woodrow Wilson would insist on a fair, respectful compromise peace based on the Fourteen Points. So they were shocked when the Treaty of Versailles demanded territory, demilitarization, and reparations. Is this what caused World War II? Show Notes The story about the police horse in Vienna is recounted by author Margaret MacMillan, author of the book Paris 1919: Six Months That Changed the World, in a 2007 speech to the National World War I Museum. MacMillan's speech, like her book, is fantastic--you can see it here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7iXNZJsa6s&t=797s). This map depicts the hunger levels of Europe in December 1918. It was created by the US Food Administration in cooperation with the Department of Agriculture and the Bureau of Education. Germany and Austria-Hungary (which, in fact, no longer existed) were labeled "Unclassified" because when this map was prepared, two two countries were still classified as enemies and the food blockade was still in effect. Austria, at least, would have fallen into the black zone. Food riots became common across the Central Powers countries. This photo depicts a delicatessan in Berlin that has been looted by a mob. This cartoon, published in 1917 in the Österreichische Volkszeitung, is about the food conflict between Austria and Hungary. The Austrian part of the Habsburg Empire ("Cis") is represented by the Viennese Mayor Richard Weiskirchner (1861-1926) and the Federal Minister of Food Anton Höfer begging for food deliveries. On the other side of the river Leitha, the Hungarian part ("Trans") is shown as a fat man stone-heartedly withholding his herd of animals and boxes of supplies. This cartoon reflects Viennese popular sentiment toward Hungarians, who they believed were selfishly withholding critical supplies. In fact, Hungary did restrict shipments to Austria in order to safeguard food for its own people. However, the attitude of paranoia extended to numerous ethnic groups and poisoned relations between the multiple nationalities of the Austro-Hungarian empire. German Quartermaster General Erich Ludendorff fully understood that his troops had been defeated in late September 1918. This diary entry (http://germanhistorydocs.ghi-dc.org/sub_document.cfm?document_id=814) by a German General Staff officer makes it clear that Ludendorff had no illusions about Germany's ability to go on fighting. However, by the spring of 1919, Ludendorff had convinced himself that the army had never been truly defeated in battle. Instead, the military had been betrayed by sinister forces at home, most likely Communists and Jews. The Fry and Laurie sketch on the Treaty of Westphalia is pure fantasy--no, Luxembourg was not divided between Sweden and France--but it accurately depicts the attitude of diplomats for most of European history. To the winners of war went the spoils, and never mind what the people who actually lived there thought about the matter. You can watch the entire sketch (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-WO73Dh7rY), which was originally broadcast on BBC 1 in January 2000, on YouTube. The Allied leaders at the Paris Peace Conference argued heatedly and at length about the fate of Germany and Austria. French Premier Georges Clemenceau (second from right) believed Germany would inevitably rise again and seek revenge for its defeat; he wanted the country to be stripped of land and resources, its industry destroyed, and its economy crippled. American President Woodrow Wilson (far right) on the other hand, argued for a more just and fair peace, based on the Fourteen Points, that would prevent future conflicts--although he held more resentment and animosity against Germany than he liked to admit. British Prime Minister David Lloyd-George (far left) fell in the middle; he was in favor of reparations but also wanted Germany to recover and again trade with Britain. Italian Premier Vittorio Orlando had little input on real decision-making. Germany lost about 13 percent of its territory after World War I. Alsace-Lorraine, at the far western edge of Germany, was returned to France; Germany had seized the provinces in 1871. The Rhineland was occupied after the war by the Allies, but despite Clemenceau's vehement arguments, it remained German territory. The Polish Corridor runs along the eastern edge of the country. You can see that it allowed the new nation of Poland access to the Baltic Sea but separated East Prussia from the rest of Germany. This map is among the resources on the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum website (https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/map/german-territorial-losses-treaty-of-versailles-1919), German Foreign Minister Ulrich von Brockdorff-Rantzau made a terrible first impression on the Allies when he began by complaining that Germany was being treated unfairly. His stern and cold personality didn't help. The Treaty of Versailles was signed in the Hall of Mirrors at the Palace of Versailles. The room was packed with diplomats, delegates, academic advisors, journalists, soldiers, and smattering of spies. The signing was captured by a film crew. You can watch some of the original footage (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMwKnM8j6co) on YouTube. British economist John Maynard Keynes wrote the blockbuster bestseller The Economic Consequences of Peace in a rage after the Paris Peace Conference. He argued that the Treaty of Versailles was unjust and vindictive and would ruin the economy of Europe. Keynes' book helped convince the public that Germany had been mistreated in 1919 and deserved justice in the 1930s. Keynes went on to become one of the most influential economists of the 20th century, with an entire school of economics bearing his name.

En el programa de esta semana veremos como se conocieron todos los jerarcas del Partido Nazi y consiguieron que un partido residual de Munich se convirtiese en 1932 en la mayor fuerza política del país. ¿Cómo es posible que un simple cabo de la I Guerra Mundial llegue a cotas tan altas?¿Cómo un partido dirigido a los obreros pudo convencer también a las élites comerciales del país?¿Cómo pudo ganar la batalla en las calles a las fuerzas comunistas?¿Cómo consiguió una campaña comercial tan imponente? Adolf Hitler consiguió todo esto con el apoyo de sus camaradas: Alfred Rosenberg, Ernst Röhm, Rudolf Hess, Hermann Goering, Erich Ludendorff, Heinrich Himmler y Joseph Goebbels. Acompañanos en este viaje por la historia.
