Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the life and role of one of the most significant figures in early 20th Century German history. Paul von Hindenburg (1847-1934) had been famous since 1914 as the victorious commander at the Battle of Tannenberg against Russian invaders, soon burnishing this fame on the Western Front and Hindenburg was to claim he would have won there too, if enemies at home had not 'stabbed Germany in the back'. He won Germany's Presidential election twice during the Weimar Republic, as a candidate of national unity and, while he gained his second term as a ‘stop Hitler' candidate, President Hindenburg was to appoint Hitler as Chancellor and transfer some of his charisma onto him – a move so disastrous that Germans were later to ask if the myth of Hindenburg had always been an illusion.

Der Hamburgische Correspondent war ein konservativer Vertreter seiner Zunft und stand, als solcher, in den 1920er Jahren der Deutschen Volkspartei nahe. Bei der Reichspräsidentenwahl 1925 hatte er mit der Kandidatur Paul von Hindenburgs sympathisiert und unterstützte in einem Artikel vom 31. Mai 1925 nun auch die Errichtung eines Nationaldenkmals, das im ostpreußischen Tannenberg an die dortige, mit Hindenburgs Name verbundene siegreiche Schlacht vom August 1914 gegen die russischen Truppen erinnern sollte. Tatsächlich sollte der hier besprochene Entwurf in ähnlicher Form bis 1927 realisiert und zu einem Monument deutschen Größenwahns werden. Um das Denkmal nicht in die Hände der Roten Armee fallen zu lassen, ließ Hitler die gigantomane Anlage samt der dort 1934 angelegten Hindenburg-Gruft im Januar 1945 sprengen. Während die Gebeine des Generalfeldmarschalls und seiner Frau ins hessische Marburg überführt werden konnten, gelangten die baulichen Überreste nach Warschau und fanden dort Eingang in das Gebäude des Zentralkomitees der Vereinigten Polnischen Arbeiterpartei. Rosa Leu liest einen nationalistisch bewegten Text, der von dieser Wendung der Geschichte naturgemäß nichts ahnen konnte.

Über die Zahl der Unentschlossenen gab es am 24. April 1925, zwei Tage vor dem zweiten und entscheidenden Durchgang bei den deutschen Reichspräsidentenwahlen, anders als heute, kaum belastbare Umfragedaten. Dennoch oder vielleicht gerade deswegen zogen die Leitartikler noch ein letztes Mal los, die Zweifelnden und Schwankenden von den besseren Argumenten zu überzeugen. Der Hamburger Anzeiger ging dabei weit in der Geschichte zurück, um dort eine fatale Neigung zu in Deutschland identifizieren, sich im Zweifelsfall, statt vom Verstand, von Gefühlen, und dabei allzu oft auch noch von den falschen leiten zu lassen. Wie richtig er mit dieser Ahnung lag, sollte sich 48 Stunden bestätigen. Frank Riede ist für uns noch voller Hoffnung.

In deze aflevering van De Geschiedenisreis richten we onze blik op het Oostfront tijdens de Eerste Wereldoorlog, een minder bekend, maar cruciaal strijdtoneel van 1914. Terwijl de aandacht vaak uitgaat naar het Westfront, ontvouwden zich aan de oostkant van Europa veldslagen van epische proporties die de loop van de oorlog diepgaand beïnvloedden.We bespreken de Slag bij Tannenberg, waar Duitse troepen onder leiding van Hindenburg en Ludendorff een spectaculaire overwinning behaalden tegen de Russen. Daarnaast verkennen we hoe Oostenrijk-Hongarije worstelde om stand te houden tegen Russische aanvallen en hoe miscommunicatie, strategische fouten en onverwachte successen het front constant in beweging hielden.Hoe verliep de oorlog in deze uitgestrekte en onvoorspelbare landschappen? Wat betekenden deze veldslagen voor de betrokken landen, en hoe zagen de soldaten deze strijd? Duik mee in de verhalen van moed, misleiding en geopolitieke machtsspelletjes die het Oostfront in 1914 kenmerkten.Fan Mail! Wil je iets leuks delen, doe het hier!

Österrike-Ungern inledde första världskriget genom att anfalla Serbien samtidigt som de ställdes mot den ryska armén i Polen och Galizien. Detta skulle visa sig ödesdigert. Rysslands numerära överlägsenhet hotade att fullständigt krossa den habsburgska armén.Räddningen blev tysk hjälp och rysk militär inkompetens. Slutfacit för Österrike-Ungerns del under världskrigets första halvår var förluster på 1,3 miljoner soldater, en förlust som dubbelmonarkin aldrig lyckades återhämta sig ifrån under krigets fortsättning.I detta avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden ger sig Martin Hårdstedt och Peter Bennesved i kast med några av första världskrigets mindre kända strider.Samtidigt som österrikarna genomförde tre misslyckade försök att besegra Serbien inleddes striderna på östfronten i Ostpreussen, Polen och Galizien på allvar i augusti 1914. Inledningsvis besegrade tyskarna två ryska arméer i slagen vid Tannenberg och de Masuriska sjöarna. I Galizien började striderna med österrikiska framgångar, som snabbt förbyttes till en allmän österrikisk reträtt. Rysslands numerära överlägsenhet blev omedelbart påtaglig.Den österrikiske överbefälhavaren Conrad hade genom att splittra sin armé bäddat för nederlag på två fronter. I september organiserade tyskarna en ny armé, den 9:e tyska armén, och inledde en offensiv mot Warszawa. Trots att offensiven stoppades endast 20 kilometer från den polska huvudstaden, avlastades österrikarna. Tyskarna visade stor operativ flexibilitet genom att snabbt omgruppera sina styrkor med hjälp av järnvägen och inleda en ny offensiv, denna gång norrifrån mot Warszawa. Österrikarna följde med i offensiven. Än en gång lyckades ryssarna stå emot, och i december ebbade striderna ut.Inför fortsättningen stod två saker klara. För det första var ryssarnas militära förmåga begränsad, trots deras till synes outsinliga tillgång på manskap. För det andra visade sig Österrike-Ungern vara i stort sett militärt inkompetenta. Särskilt ledarskapet under Conrad präglades av stora brister. Armén var inte stridstekniskt övad för krig, utan snarare för att fungera som en inrikespolitisk styrka – en sorts polistrupp som dessutom var van vid att visa upp sig på parader. Under de kommande åren tvingades tyskarna att hålla sin allierade under armarna och till slut helt ta över befälet på östfronten.Bild: Förstörelse av en rysk kavalleriavdelning nära Wieliczka, sydost om Krakow (målning av Arthur Heyer) Arthur Heyer - Der Krieg 1914/19 i Wort und Bild, 17.

Det sägs att slaget vid Tannenberg 1410 var medeltidens största slag. Den 15:e juli det året mötte Tyska orden och deras stödtrupper en polsk-litauisk här, mellan Tannenberg (idag Stebark) och Grunwald, och en blodig uppgörelse följde.Från ett samtida perspektiv var slaget bara en i raden av konfrontationer mellan de två kontingenterna, men slagets långsiktiga konsekvenser var desto större. Slaget förebådar den Tyska ordens nedgång och fall, vilket i sig kommer att bädda för bildandet av hertigdömet Preussen, och starten på över 500 år av mytbildning.I dagens avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden pratar idéhistorikern Peter Bennesved och professorn i historia Martin Hårdstedt om slaget vid Tannenberg 1410, den tyska Riddarordens sista suck.Det som gör detta slag särskilt intressant är att det är en konflikt mellan två ganska märkliga, och unika, statsbildningar. På ena sidan, den Tyska orden, eller ibland Teutoniska orden – En riddarorden med rötterna i medeltidens korståg. På andra sidan fanns polsk-litauiska alliansen, en statsbildning som i praktiken hade utvecklats från två separata kungariken till en slags tidig form av dubbelmonarki. De två parterna slogs framför allt om ett landområde i deras närhet, Samogitien.Samtidigt måste man fråga sig, hur kommer det sig att en riddarorden av det här slaget, under tidigt 1400-tal, bedriver offensiva krig mot andra kungadömen?Slaget vid Tannenberg har även en annan intressant militärhistorisk läxa i det att orsakerna till den Tyska ordens förlust här egentligen är resultatet av ett diplomatiskt spel mellan de olika prinsarna och hertigarna i området. Det var detta spel som också skulle bli början på slutet för den Tyska orden.Bild: Slaget vid Tannenberg av den polske konstnären Jan Matejkos oljemålning av daterad 1878. Wikipedia.

Vid slaget vid Tannenberg i slutet av augusti 1914 lyckades Paul von Hindenburgs 8:e armé lura in och slå en ring runt den ryska Samsonovs 2:a armé på östfronten. Manövern var så lyckosam att Samsonovs armé blev totalt tillintetgjord, och slaget har sedan dess blivit ett av första världskrigets mest mytomspunna.Slaget ledde omedelbart till politiska förvecklingar, och för den pensionerade officeren Hindenburg blev slaget starten på en lång politisk karriär som vi får anledning att återkomma till senare i vår serie om första världskriget.I dagens avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden berättar idéhistorikern Peter Bennesved och professorn i historia Martin Hårdstedt om Slaget vid Tannenberg 1914.Tyskland hade flyttat fram en av sina arméer på ca 200 000 man upp till den östra fronten för att där försena en rysk frammarsch i väntan på en fransk kapitulation. Denna leddes först av von Prittwitz. Ryssarna mötte upp med två arméer under Rennenkampf respektive Samsonov. Till en början var Prittwitz försiktig och beordrade ordnade reträtter västerut. Men den defensiva attityden uppskattades inte av överkommandot, och snart blev von Prittwitz ersatt av Paul von Hindenburg. Med Hindenburg hoppades man på en offensiv taktik med det yttersta målet att slå ut de ryska arméerna, trots det uppenbara numerära underläget. Erich von Ludendorff, som nyligen hade bevisat sin förmåga i slaget om Liège på västfronten blev Hindenburgs stabschef och följde med.Efter att ha anlänt på plats såg de två en möjlighet att exploatera det faktum att de ryska arméerna separerades från varandra på var sin sida om de Masuriska sjöarna. Hindenburg tog initiativet och försökte sig på en omfattning av Samsonovs 2:a armé, söder om sjöarna, medan Rennenkampf fortsatte västerut. Det var ett vågspel som hade kunnat misslyckas om Rennenkampf vädrat Hindenburgs intentioner, och fallit in i Hindenburgs rygg. Men det lyckades och resultatet blev häpnadsväckande. Hindenburgs 8:e armé tog över 90 000 krigsfångar och över 70 000 ryska soldater miste livet, i utbyte mot ca 12 000 tyska förluster.Bild: Tyskt infanteri under slaget vid Tannenberg 1914. Wikipedia.

#belgesel Kayzer Wilhelm ve Çar Nikolay arasındaki iletişim kopar. Çar, savaş kararı vermekte de tereddüt eder. Tüm tereddütlerine rağmen ordudan gelen baskıyla seferberliğe onay vermek zorunda kalır. Avrupa'yı karıştıran Temmuz Krizi, 1. Dünya Savaşına yol açar. Rus-Fransız ittifakında Ruslar, olası bir mücadelede Almanya'ya hücum edeceğini taahhüt etmiştir. Bu taahhüt sebebiyle hazır olmaktan çok uzak bir durumda düğmeye basmak zorunda kalır. Alman topraklarına ayak basan Rus orduları, kısa süreliğine kolay bir ilerleme sağlar. Otto von Prittwitz'i sıkıştırmak isteyen Ruslar, hücuma geçer. Fakat Prittwitz'in yerine atanan Paul von Hindenburg, büyük bir kumar oynar. Rus ordularına baskın veren General, Tannenberg'de Ruslara kabusu yaşatır. Önce Samsonov Tannenberg'de, ardından Rennenkampf Mazurya Göllerinde felaketle sonuçlanan muharebelere girer. Galiçya'da Avusturya-Macaristan'ı mağlup eden Ruslar, Alman baskısı karşısında zorlu günler yaşar. Savaşta sahne alacak bir diğer devlet ise Osmanlı İmparatorluğudur. Hasta adam olarak görülen Osmanlı, Rusların Kafkas seferberliğiyle zorlu günler yaşamaktadır. Tarafsızlığını açıklayan Osmanlılar, bir yandan da Almanya ile ittifak anlaşmasına imza atar. Savaşın başlamasıyla zor duruma düşen Akdeniz'deki Goeben ve Breslau, kendini Çanakkale'ye atmak zorunda kalır. Osmanlı, Rus limanlarına gerçekleştirdiği baskınla savaşa dahil olur. Doğu Cephesinde köşeye sıkışan Ruslar, Winston Churchill'e baskı uygulayarak 1915 başlarında Çanakkale Operasyonunu hazırlatır. 18 Mart 1915'te boğazı aşamayan İtilaf Devletleri, Rusya'yla bağlantı kurmayı başaramaz. Rusya'nın durumu gittikçe zorlaşır. Üzerine Almanya ve Avusturya-Macaristan Gorlice-Tarnow'da büyük bir taarruz başlatır. Bir yenilgi daha alan Ruslar, Polonya'dan çekilir. Çok ağır kayıplar veren Ruslar, son nefesiyle 1916 yılında General Brusilov'a bir taarruz planı hazırlatır. Brusilov Taarruzu, başarısız olur. Bu mücadele, Rusya'nın 1. Dünya Savaşındaki son büyük gösterisi olur. Cephe gerisinde Çariçe Alexandra ve Rasputin, başkenti kasıp kavurmaktadır. Halk, savaşın getirdiği zorlu koşullar altında ezilirken yönetimde büyük bir istikrarsızlık yaşanır. Başkentteki entrikalar, Çarlık Rusya'yı topyekun bir karışıklığa iter. Çar, tüm uyarılara rağmen gerekli adımları atmaz. Romanovlar için yolun sonu, görünmüştür. Beğenmenizi umuyor, keyifli seyirler diliyorum. Lütfen like, dislike ve yorumlarınızı esirgemeyiniz.

Writing in the 1920s, Winston Churchill argued that the First World War on the Eastern Front was "incomparably the greatest war in history. In its scale, in its slaughter, in the exertions of the combatants, in its military kaleidoscope, it far surpasses by magnitude and intensity all similar human episodes." It was, he concluded, "the most frightful misfortune" to fall upon mankind "since the collapse of the Roman Empire before the Barbarians." Yet Churchill was an exception, and the war in the east has long been seen as a sideshow to the brutal combat on the Western Front. Finally, with The Eastern Front: A History of the Great War, 1914-1918 (Norton, 2024)--the first major history of that arena in fifty years--the acclaimed historian Nick Lloyd corrects the record. Drawing on the latest scholarship as well as eyewitness reports, diary entries, and memoirs, Lloyd moves from the great battles of 1914 to the final collapse of the Central Powers in 1918, showing how a local struggle between Austria-Hungary and Serbia spiraled into a massive conflagration that pulled in Germany, Russia, Italy, Romania, and Bulgaria. The Eastern Front was a vast theater of war that brought about the collapse of three empires and produced almost endless suffering. As many as sixteen million soldiers and two million civilians were killed or wounded in enormous battles that took place across as much as one hundred kilometers. Unlike in the west, where stalemate ruled the day, the war in the east was fluid, with armies embarking on penetrating advances. Lloyd narrates the repeated invasions of Serbia as well as the great battles between Russian, German, and Austrian forces at Tannenberg, Komarów, Gorlice-Tarnów, and the Masurian Lakes. All along, he takes us into the strategy of the generals who decided the war's course, from the Germans Ludendorff and Hindenburg to the Austro-Hungarian chief, Conrad von Hötzendorf, to the brilliant Russian Brusilov. Perhaps the most radical aspect of the struggle in the east was that the violence was not confined to combatants. The Eastern Front witnessed calculated attacks against civilians that ripped the ethnic and religious fabric of numerous societies, paving the way for the horrors of the Holocaust. Lloyd's magisterial, definitive account of the war in the east will fundamentally alter our understanding of the cataclysmic events that reshaped Europe and the world.

The theocratic state of the Teutonic Knights had survived the devastating defeat at Tannenberg with most of its territory intact. But underneath the foundations of the edifice are crumbling. The economy is in tatters, the theological justification for their existence has disappeared and their power as a military force has failed to keep up with the changing times. The order needs a new business model for absence of a suitable term. How well or badly it did in this attempt is what we will be looking at in this episode.For the episode website with transcripts and links to maps, book recommendations etc. go here: Episode 136– 13 years of war • History of the Germans PodcastThe music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comFacebook: @HOTGPod Twitter: @germanshistoryInstagram: history_of_the_germansReddit: u/historyofthegermansPatreon: History of the Germans Podcast | a narrative history from 919 AD to 1990 in weekly episodes | Patreon

Last week we ended with the famous battle of Tannenberg or as the Poles would call it Grunwald. This battle is not just famous for its outcome but also for the various accounts of what happened. There is a Polish version there is a Lithuanian version and there's obviously a German version, actually 2 German versions. Though the one German version that blames the defeat on betrayal by Polish vassals is now debunked. With that exception I find it rarely matters who did what during the battle but what the outcome was and what happened afterwards.The Grand Master Ulrich von Jungingen and all his major officers were dead as well as hundreds of Knights brothers and thousands of secular knights, crusaders, squires and mercenaries. What was also lying there prostrate on the battlefield was the notion of the invincibility off the Teutonic Order. As the Polish and Lithuanian troops pursued what remained of the order's forces, the Prussian cities and castles opened their gates to the winners. A complete victory? Well as it happened it would take another nearly 60 years before Poland would regain control of Pomerelia and its capital Gdansk. And even that wasn't the end of the Teutonic Knights. Despite the devastating defeat, the loss of its purpose, and the fundamentally changed political structure inside their state, the Teutonic order soldiered on, how they managed is what we will explore in this episode.
Last week we ended with the famous battle of Tannenberg or as the Poles would call it Grunwald and the Lithuanians Zalgiris. This battle is not just famous for its outcome but also for the various accounts of what happened. There is a Polish version there is a Lithuanian version and there's obviously a German version, actually 2 German versions. Though the one German version that blames the defeat on betrayal by Polish vassals is now debunked. With that exception I find it rarely matters who did what during the battle but what the outcome was and what happened afterwards.And afterwards the Grand Master Ulrich von Jungingen and all his major officers were dead as well as hundreds of Knights brothers and thousands of secular knights, crusaders, squires and mercenaries. What was also lying there prostrate on the battlefield was the notion of the invincibility off the Teutonic Order. As the Polish and Lithuanian troops pursued what remained of the order's forces, the Prussian cities and castles opened their gates to the winners. A complete victory? Well as it happened it would take another nearly 60 years before Poland would regain control of Pomerelia and its capital Gdansk. And even that wasn't the end of the Teutonic Knights.

This week we look at the reasons the golden age of the Teutonic knights came to an abrupt end at the beginning of the 15th century. It is a sequence of events that involve some remarkable Polish and Lithuanian princes, the Templars, and of course – The brothers of the house of St. Mary of the Germans in Jerusalem. Ah, and a very famous battle.The music for the show is Flute Sonata in E-flat major, H.545 by Carl Phillip Emmanuel Bach (or some claim it as BWV 1031 Johann Sebastian Bach) performed and arranged by Michel Rondeau under Common Creative Licence 3.0.As always:Homepage with maps, photos, transcripts and blog: www.historyofthegermans.comFacebook: @HOTGPod Twitter: @germanshistoryInstagram: history_of_the_germansReddit: u/historyofthegermansPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/HistoryofthegermansPodcasts on Poland:BBC Radio 4 - In Our Time, The Polish-Lithuanian CommonwealthPoland Is Not Yet Lost — WDFpodcast.comThe History of Poland Podcast (libsyn.com)

Russia invades Germany and loses badly at Tannenberg. Austria-Hungary fights Serbia. The Russian losses in 1914 force a reevaluation of the whole strategy pursued by the Russia-France-England alliance, and before long will cause even bigger changes than that.

The Battle of Tannenberg was one of the first major battles of World War I, fought between Russia and Germany in East Prussia. The early decisions of German leadership in World War I, and consequently the Eastern Front, resulted from the German war plan of 1914. However, Eighth Army's operations in East Prussia did not adhere to the plan's original course of action. Although outnumbered, the Imperial German Army successfully and overwhelmingly outperformed the Russian First and Second Armies in mobilization, strategic and tactical execution, logistics, and reconnaissance. The Battle of Tannenberg was one of Germany's earliest, most decisive tactical victories.

The Russians strike hard against their most powerful enemy, Germany. Austro-Hungary help their German ally although their military forces are under-resourced, in large part because through the years the Hungarian parliament had restricted military finding by using it as a bargaining chip for political concessions.While the Austrians attack Serbia, the Germans achieve a significant victory against Russia at the Battle of Tannenberg.www.patreon.com/historyeuropewww.historyeurope.netMusic composed by Alexander Scriabin - Etude in C Sharp MinorPicture - Tannenberg Bundesarchiv, East Prussian German InfantryTheme tune for the podcast by Nico Vettese, www.wetalkofdreams.com Hosted on Acast.

Do not adjust your podcast player, this is a new style of episode! We are introducing an episode called Tangent Time, because we have finally snapped and gone off on a long tangent about something only vaguely related to the main narrative... We cover the pivotal Battle of Grunwald (or Battle of Tannenberg) between the Teutonic Knights and the forces of Poland and Lithuania. We mentioned this briefly in the latest regular episode (number 75) but felt that the story deserved the full Flatpack treatment. It is Jogaila and Vytautas versus Ulrich von Jungingen and it is going to be momentous! We suggest listening to episode 75 first, but it isn't mandatory!
