does it have any literary value?

It's Hitler you dip. Of course it does.

>>8823849
yes it's still a top seller in many parts of the world

>>8823898
>>8823861
neither of these answer the question at all

is it good? could Hitler write?

>>8823911
No, he couldn't write. It's pointlessly meandering, at times contradictory, almost stream of consciousness.

A quote:

>If the National Socialist movement really desires to be consecrated by history to a great mission for our people, it must, penetrated by knowledge of, and filled with suffering for, her real situation on this earth, valiantly and conscious of its goal, take up the fight against the aimlessness and incompetence which have heretofore guided the German people on the course of foreign affairs.

what a spaghetti mess

No, he was a sperg and if you ctrl+f the word 'jew' it literally appears on every page

>>8823993
>almost stream of consciousness.
It was dictated you dicktaster.

How would dictating make editing impossible?

>>8824011
It wouldn't, he's an ignorant /pol/tard with no idea what he's talking about.

His next post will prove this.

>>8824002
This isn't true at all.

>t. Muh share opinions of book I've never read

Kys, my man

>The fox is always a fox, the goose a goose, the tiger a tiger, etc., and the difference can lie, at the most, in the different measure of strength, force, cleverness, skill, perseverance, etc., of the various specimens

Hitler's forced animal metaphors are the best

>>8824011
It wouldn't, I was just explaining the style. The way your quote embeds information suggests it was expounded after the fact, for example. It's still inevitably going to retain stylistic "stream of consciousness" remnants of dictation. I can't think of a single dictated book that doesn't, can you?

Definite historical value, but the book is quite a slog and lacks literary merit. The second half is particularly atrocious, and I don't fault western politicians who are castigated for not having read it.

>>8824087
Are the sections on propaganda interesting?

>>8824063
>I can't think of a single dictated book that doesn't, can you?
Of course! Paradise Lost was completely dictated since Milton was blind. There's not an inch of loose stream in that poem.

Goethe dictated many of his first drafts, as did Dostoevsky. It used to be a very common thing before the typewriter!

>>8824091
No, and I say this without making political judgement. There are far better works on propaganda out there.

>>8824091
btw you might find this archive interesting.

If you believe in multiple intelligence theory, Hitler's genius was in his speech, as is widely attested. Goebbels' was a far more persuasive propaganda writer.

no and hitler had a small penis think about hat

>>8824097
I meant specifically non-fiction written in prisons, jackass.

jk I concede my point.

>>8824132
:) No worries mate!

There's actually quite an interesting story behind Hitler's stay in prison, the German state was very 'right' back then and Hitler had it very nice. See here or a hilarious Hitler in Lederhosen: http://www.spiegel.de/international/germany/adolf-hitler-s-time-in-jail-flowers-for-the-fuehrer-in-landsberg-prison-a-702159.html

>>8824165
For some reason this reminds me of those pictures of dogs wearing people clothes with jaded looks on their faces.

>>8823849
it gives you insight into hitler. not a total one but as close as you can really get. you know guy has problems when he comes of as a twat in his own book, even after he went back few times and edited it

>>8824416
t. hasn't read it

>>8824476
why was this post removed?

>>8824507
Because he realised how cringeworthy it was and wanted to save face.

It's essential reading. Read the Ford translation.
