A New Practical and Easy Method of Learning the German Language: First Course (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book is an exploration of the historical forces that framed the way Germans perceive themselves and their place on the global stage. The author argues that German identity is marked by a deep ambivalence about the nation's role and place, resulting in a 'schizophrenic' self-understanding. This ambivalence can be traced back to Germany's unification in 1871 when a newly unified German nation emerged as an industrial and military powerhouse. The author examines how Germany positioned itself as a leader in science and culture in an attempt to legitimize its newfound national identity. The book also explores the complex and often contradictory ways in which Germans have grappled with their nation's painful history, particularly the Holocaust, and the challenges of reunification. Overall, this book provides a nuanced and thought-provoking analysis of the historical, cultural, and psychological forces that have shaped German national identity.
