In The Psychiatrist's Chair - David Irving - BBC

[@dreamdiction]

Dr Anthony Clare of the Institute of Psychiatry invites the historian David Irving. controversial author of such books as The Destruction of Dresden, Hitler's War and Uprising, to reflect on the major influences that have shaped his private and professional attitudes. Producer Michael Ember. First Broadcast 07-Aug-1982 on BBC Radio 4.

[@George-nv1ri]

1982 wow, same claptrap from interviews today. Interesting how the "psychiatrist" spends the entire time trying to force guilt onto Irving rather than simply exploring his life.

[@dreamdiction]

@@George-nv1ri Agreed, he 'performs' for his audience by trying too hard to play the role of the psychiatrist who discovers 'neurosis' motivated by feelings of inferiority and shame. David Irving made honest disclosures about his early life and his marriage but the psychiatrist showed no sympathetic interest in anything good about David Irving, the psychiatrist only wanted to prove himself by 'digging for dirt'.

I don't know how to describe this man. He brings out contrary feelings. I sat very close to him at his court trial. His eyes were blue, and wicked. Yet ,at times, his face belonged to a man who looked warmish and vulnerable. His wife looks like a Moroccan peasant's daughter though he has proclaimed she is of Spanish nobility. Erudite but also uncouth (he bought a Rolls Royce with his first big pay cheque), he comes across as aspirational bourgeoise found in a classic Balzac novel. One revealing psychological fact about the man isn't his views on women, parents; and it isn't, in fact, a psychological fact at all. Dr. Clare made sure he put at the beginning of the interview that Irving attended a Minor Public School, as if to say this is the kind of man and actor we are about to interview.

[@gaiusvincent9643]

Gosh, yes, so many of the disturbed, or at least disturbing, right-wing men who revel in attention-getting eccentric views are minor public school products. What happens to them at these places, or is it the position it qualifies them for & limits it imposes, afterwards in society?

[@drott150]

The reason Irving is and will be so important in the centuries to come - is that he was alive during WWII, albeit as a child. But he was old enough to be an accomplished historian throughout 1960s and 70s and therefore was old enough to have personally met many of Hitler's inner circle while they were still alive - and he did. And he was not cowed by political correctness, he asked the right questions and drew out the honest answers. So, his personal accounts were directly obtained from first order sources and meticulously backed up and referenced with original documentation you can be sure will be erased and censored in the years to come (as Irving was during his own lifetime). 500 years from now when people read about AH or many other historical subjects, they will be getting as close to the real historical truth as humanly possible. Unlike virtually all history today, especially about people who lived centuries or millennia ago.

[@coraquaid8079]

He's right about women and I say that as one but what he fails to realise is that women give birth to life and that is in itself most fulfilling nothing can compare to this gift from God.

[@ChristianLopez-r3b]

I dont know how their relationship was, obviously not the greatest, but my guess is city life requires hardness of character in order to retain oneself and family. Irving probably belived he input enough attention into his wife, but the constant shifting of trend and happenings in the city arouse a sense of instability and a feeling of missing out, and this can wear on a relationship, especially women, because women are more sensitive and therefore aware of general mood, and they are also more succeptable to being aroused by novelty and emediate stimulous.

[@pamelacorbett8774]

I find his pronouncement upon women as having ‘achieved so little’ incredibly blinkered. We had to fight long and hard to get the vote, for years women were denied a decent education, systematically excluded from the professions, from the universities, the judiciary, the sciences, even when Marie Curie won the Nobel Prize, it was originally awarded to her husband. When Virginia Woolf turned up early to lecture at a top British university, she was refused entry to the library: no women allowed. This attitude towards women speaks clearly about the deep fear men had of intelligent, gifted, resourceful women: what a waste! It is indeed a shameful history. I’m sorry he regretted his marriage: bet he wasn’t the only one.

But Irving has said that it wasn't Deborah Lipstadt's accusation of "Holocaust denier" (whatever that means) that bothered him, but that she was part of a larger Jewish effort to pressure major book publishers to stop publishing his books, which is in fact what happened. He hoped that a successful lawsuit would check that effort.

He used the threat of defamation actions to stop cash-strapped publishers and academics from revealing the truth about his own writings, but then he came a cropper. He tried to sue Deborah Lipstadt who accused him of being a Holocaust denying fraud and, like Oscar Wilde, he came a cropper because his accuser was correct.

Despite having had no interest in Hitler or reading, I recall being struck by Irving's boldly displayed name frequently as a little boy (particularly in what may have been a seemingly sincere & authoritative plain white New Times Roman typeface), when strolling through the family library. So, this is the man, whose works my father presumably read with keen interest, being a German Luftwaffe General himself. For lack of historical education, inaccessibility to original documents, the sheer impossibility of verifying events out of reach, I can't and don't want to argue with Irving's claims about the WWII period, but the worldview uttered in this "psychiatry session" is littered with as many hard-cold facts about human existence, as it is with ideological dead-ends and fictions about "patriotism", "genius" and persons "that people can trust". What, at the very least, should have been a rich opportunity to probe deeper into the personal context of Irving's supposedly controversial claims, amounts to just another "celebrity" promo / interview on the surface, and quite possibly an unintentional piece of propaganda, not for Hitler, but for the ideological structures, that Hitler's regime shared with the rest of the world.

[@uppercut1739]

Dresden was bombed after a request from Stalin to Churchill and Roosevelt. It was to hinder any German troop movements eastwards in response to the Russians advance. It was also an important railway hub, and had many factories contributing to the German war effort. Civilian deaths were around 25,000 in total, regrettable as they were they were nothing like the exaggerated numbers of up to 10 times that amount.
