Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Germany Present, Vol. 1 of 2: And Past Germany, her institutions and culture, are daily attracting more attention in England, France, and Russia. In military matters the two latter are content to copy her, with alterations of their own which are not improvements. There is much in the institutions which surprises, something in the culture which shocks, a foreigner. It is impossible for him to understand the former, unjust to judge the latter, without a knowledge of the history of German civilisation. With nations, as with individuals, the features of maturity are the features stamped in childhood, but modified by circumstance. The factors of German national life are powers which must be reduced to their roots to be understood. Results without a hint of their causes are as unsatisfactory in social science as are miracles in the economy of nature. A traveller notes facts that appear strange to him.
