Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from German Idealism and Prussian Militarism "Uncle Theodore was the exact type of one of those Germans of the old style whose affectation it is scoffingly to repudiate the old idealism of the race, and, intoxicated by conquest, to maintain a cult of strength and success which shows that they are not accustomed to seeing them on their side. But as it is difficult at once to change the age-old nature of a people, the despised idealism sprang up again in him at every turn in language, manners, and moral habits and quotations from Goethe to fit the smallest incidents of domestic life, for he was a singular compound of conscience and self-interest. There was in him a curious effort to reconcile the honest principles of the German bourgeoisie with the cynicism of the new commercial condottieri - a compound which forever gave out a flavor of hypocrisy, forever striving to make of German strength, avarice, and self-interest the symbols of right, justice and truth."
