After World War II the United States seen growth, and became more united than ever. The people of the United States didn't agree with us fighting the war. Once the pearl harbor attack hit we had no choice but to retaliate.…
Women were also largely part of the war effort, although they were not allowed to enlist as soldiers, they helped by enlisting as nurses, treating those wounded from battle, or by working the jobs men did before the war, supplying ammunition to be used. Propaganda was also used to persuade women into sending their sons or husbands to enlist in the army. The government persuaded women to take jobs in factories, creating ammunition and weapons, by saying they should ‘do their part’ while men were fighting in trenches. Propaganda aimed at recruits for nurses targeted maternal instincts and religious beliefs, for instance in the red cross ‘help’ poster. The woman in the poster has her arms outstretched, standing in front of a cross, resembling…

Before the 16th century, Spain was not recognized as a legitimate powerhouse in Europe. They were known as a very strong Catholic orientated country located in the Iberian Peninsula north of Morocco. However, in the matter of a span of little over a hundred years, Spain obtained a great amount of wealth and power through conquests and inheritance from the king. Just as they were the greatest empire in the world, it fell apart and soon declined into the status of a third-rate power in Europe.…
Literature can be an extremely powerful tool of persuasion. One man with one idea has the potential to influence hundreds, thousands, or even millions of people through writing. In fact, one particularly influential piece of literature convinced an entire population of people to ostracize, shun, and even murder their fellow citizens. Compelling texts such as Hitler’s Mein kampf allow me to believe that literature could be considered propaganda. These pieces of literature, when written to pacify a specific audience, can strongly appeal to humanity’s “passions”, as Plato suggests. I believe that authors use literature as a vehicle to demonstrate their personal beliefs and influence their audience to share those beliefs.…
Propaganda is often seen as negative, because of its use of exaggerated statistics or false statements to manipulate whomever is looking at that poster or advertisement to believe that it’s true. For example, the propaganda in Nazi Germany, they would control what the German citizens could see, read, and hear. Dr. Joseph Goebbels, was put in charge by Hitler, in order to control the propaganda that the public population had access to. Therefore, it was his job to make sure that the German citizens were only allowed contact to what made the Nazi campaign seem like the best and only opinions they had. Goebbels said “The essence of propaganda consists in winning people over to an idea so sincerely, so vitally, that in the end they succumb to…
President William McKinley once said, “Our differences are policies; our agreements, principles.” These noticeable differences clearly stand out in World War One propaganda. Subtle differences included color variation, differing fonts, and poster size; glaring differences included languages, graphics, and text used in the propaganda (Kaminski). Each country’s propaganda sparked hopes to win the Great War. Persuasive appeals, graphics, and audience-specific propaganda worked synergistically to alter people’s mindset about an aspect of the war. The Allied and Central powers had different propaganda, but one common goal. While comparing German and British propaganda, the many differences and similarities become evident.…

The way American Propaganda portrayed the Japanese was very bad. It showed them based on samurai tradition, it showed them as ruthless people who had a need to take over the world. It also showed the Germans in a bad way. It often showed Hitler as doomed. We made the Germans appear as Stupid fools. For example In one political cartoon it shows an angry German father yelling at his son saying “Germans eat countries, not food”. This is one of Dr. Seuss’s man political cartoons. As you can see on page !@# in image one how it portrays the enemy as there stereotypical racist images. In image two it shows the Germans as country eaters like mentioned before. In image three it shows the Japanese and Hitler in the ocean as a two headed Axis…
The Holocaust was a very brutal event that took place in Europe in the 20th Century. It was genocide; Adolf Hitler and the Nazis murdered about 6 million Jews. This began after Hitler was announced Chancellor of Germany on January 30, 1933. The Holocaust did not affect just Germany, but the whole world. Hitler with his convincing speeches persuaded many people to go against the Jews. He formed a political party called the Nazis and together they ruined many Jews’ lives. To get more people to join them, they created propaganda that made it seem like the Jews were bad people. The main way used to kill Jews was sending them to concentration camps. The camps were very terrible, many dead bodies were found stacked up together after the Holocaust…
The precursor to concentration and death camps were the ghettos in Poland and Hungary. Ghettos were built similar to concentration camps, except they were in an urban area and consisted of pre existing buildings. One apartment would normally house multiple families, and this cramped environment facilitated the spread of disease. Jews were intentionally allowed to only buy a small amount of food. Combined with the sheer cold, many lives were taken just by the poor living conditions.…
” It is not the purpose of propaganda to create a series of alterations in sentiment…. Its chief function is to convince the masses, whose slowness of understanding needs to be given time in order that they may absorb information; and only constant repetition will finally succeed in imprinting an idea on the memory of the crowd.” Adolph Hitler Mein Kampf Ch 6 (1)…
This poster shows a father sitting on a chair with his daughter in his lap while his son plays with toy soldiers. The daughter is asking her father, “Daddy, what did you do in the Great War?” The poster was probably designed to play on the guilt and pride of men. It accomplished this by saying that if you don't volunteer to join the war, you won't have anything to tell your children about how you helped your country. The purpose of this poster was to entice young men to volunteer for the war. What helped this was the young children looking up to their father and the fathers guilty appearance, The setting of the poster is after the war, when he can't just go back and change his mind. This is more of a positive type of propaganda because it…
