Présentation de l'éditeur

German Empire is the most perplexing quantity in the modem world, and as unavoidable as perplexing. Those affections which grow up inde Uberately in the blood may draw us toward the quicker Celt, Latin, or Slav. But the Teuton giant will not be ignored, and offers a bold face to strangers even when he is visibly torn and tormented by a conflict of radical forces. What lies behind that appearance of supermanly strength, that steel-clad majesty an indomitable will, or a gamblers fears? What is the Secret of this Man in the Iron Mask? What is the nexus between Kaiser and conscript. Junker and Social Democrat, between the smiling South and the overbearing bulk of Prussia, between the Pole clinging desperately to his language and his fields, and the skilled workman of Essen, between Lutheran and Catho Uc, between the old ruins of the Rhineland and the fleets that Hamburg and Bremen send out to the ends of the earth? How reconcile the noble heritage of German poetry and philosophy with the spirit of its latter-day possessors, Goethe with Bismarck? Some aim must imderly the herculean efforts of the last forty-one years.
