Otto Von Bismarck (SLE): Personality Type Analysis

Otto, Prince of Bismarck, Count of Bismarck-Schönhausen, Duke of Lauenburg (born Junker Otto Eduard Leopold von Bismarck ,   1815-1898) was chancellor of Prussia and later Germany. He is best known for his achievement of unifying the various German states (completed in 1871), which he continued to govern as Chancellor until his dismissal by Kaiser Wilhelm II ( EIE ) in 1890. One of the most interesting things about Bismarck was his lack of real power. As a mere chancellor, his position was completely at the mercy of his benefactor, the King of Prussia and later German Kaiser, Wilhelm I. Wilhelm always had the final say as a somewhat absolute monarch, and could override or fire his chancellor whenever he wished, and in addition to that, any specific domestic law that Bismarck wanted needed to be passed by the Reichstag. Despite this, Bismarck’s contemporaries, including his friends and enemies (of which he had many) widely considered him to be a dictator. This is because, despite h...

Napoléon Bonaparte (SLE): Personality Type Analysis

Napoléon Bonaparte (1769 - 1821) , otherwise known by the regnal name Napoleon I , was a French general, politician, and emperor, who thanks to circumstances provided by the French Revolution, rose from mild Corsican nobility through the ranks to lead Revolutionary France through wars against 5 coalitions, expanding its borders to cover most of Western Europe and parts of Eastern Europe. Widely considered to be one of the greatest military generals in history, he is also remembered for his many domestic reforms within France, his most notable being the standardization of France’s different regional legal systems into a single 'Napoleonic Code' which would go on to form the basis of most Western European legal systems. Following his defeat in the war of the 6th coalition, Napoleon was exiled to the small island of Elba, which he had been promised for him to rule as a sort of mini-emperor. However, after less than a year, with the deal not being upheld, he snuck back to France to...

Alexander the Great (SLE): Personality Type Analysis

Alexander III of Macedon (a.k.a. ' Alexander the Great' ) was a Macedonian king and one of the most successful Ancient Greek military commanders in history. During the course of his military career, he became a cavalry commander at age 18, a king at 20, conquered the Persian empire at 26 and explored the Indian frontier at 30. Alexander's defeat of the Persian empire removed the blockade that had prevented the spread of Greek settlements into the East. Although no surviving evidence suggests that Alexander himself promoted a policy of Hellenization, his influence encouraged the spread of Greek culture into western Asia as a result of his conquests. His military conquests engulfed beyond Greece until it reached the Mesopotamian frontier, becoming a part of the Greek world for the very first time. This is one of many Alexander's most certain, yet unintended, historical achievements. Alexander the Great was no doubt an inspiring leader and a brave soldier, he was very q...

Marlon Brando (SLE): Personality Type Analysis

Marlon Brando, Jr. is widely acknowledged as one of the greatest actors of the 20th century, even as having 'revolutionised' acting with his breakthrough role, Stanley Kowalski in the original theatrical production of 'A Streetcar Named Desire'. Despite stating repeatedly that acting was a 'craft' but not an 'art', Brando belonged to the school of acting where you emotionally 'become' the character - which is one manifestation of E and T . Yet, Brando said he found acting on stage enormously draining, precisely because of the toll it took on his emotions (whereas most actors feel energized by that). He said the same about his work in 'The Last Tango in Paris'. This suggests that E was a quadra value but not as a ego function (so E5 or E6 ) - yet, in person, he had easy personal charm and charisma ( E6  more likely). Brando was known as a 'bad boy' in movie sets when he felt his star power allowed him to overrule...

Cenk Uygur (SLE): Personality Type Analysis

Cenk Kadir Uygur is the co-founder and lead host of the Youtube political commentary show 'The Young Turks', versions of which also appeared on TV channels at some point. Uygur's shows alternate between fairly straightforward and factual discussions of current events (especially in the case of war or terrorism incidents) to highly opinionated analyses of the US political scene, to occasional comments on less-serious news (such as viral videos) to the "Final Judgment", where he lays down his (supposedly irrevocable) conclusions on a given subject. Uygur shares the program with co-hosts who clearly share his core political, social and religious (i.e. atheist) views, debate or "dissent" mostly occurring around secondary points, and the shared assumptions serve as basis for jokes and indignation in an atmosphere of collective emotionality, in which he actively participates. That puts Uygur, who obviously sets the tone, squarely in a Merry qua...
