Summary/Abstract: Adolf Hitler, the leader of national-socialist Germany, was a controversial figure who reached the highest rank in the state using a mixture of unusual oratorical talent and a charismatic personality that exceeded human limitations by far. The large meetings organized by a magnificently controlled propaganda, where people crowded for a chance to touch their idol, created an aura around the Führer, an aura that only the heroes of great legends had. But, while common Germans thought that Providence gave them the leader that would take them to the Gardens of Eden, it was in fact the evil will that was going to lead them, in the end, on the fields of Armageddon.
