Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Cloth hardcover, 286 pages, NOT ex-library. Clean and bright with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. One small yellow mark on upper page edges externally. Issued without a dust jacket. -- 15 essays originally delivered as public lectures at the University of Munich, 1996-1999. Designed as both an academic initiative and a gesture of cultural diplomacy, the book offers a panoramic study of British foreign policy and Anglo-German relations from the revolutions of 1848 to the late 20th century. By uniting political biography with structural analysis, the contributors provide rich, historically anchored perspectives on the mutual perceptions and misperceptions that shaped one of Europe's most consequential bilateral relationships. Part I places 19th-century British policy in a continental context, featuring essays by Alan Sked and David Steele that reframe Lord Salisbury's diplomacy beyond insular imperialism. Richard Shannon's analysis situates this within Conservative party politics, contributing to ongoing reappraisals of Britain's late Victorian foreign policy. In Part II, essays by John Röhl, Keith Robbins, and Michael Howard explore the centrality of monarchs in shaping strategic worldviews - an angle that resonates with current debates on leadership and historical agency. These chapters underscore the persistent entanglement of personality, symbolism, and statecraft in Anglo-German tensions. Part III dissects diplomatic culture and strategic reception. Jonathan Wright's treatment of Stresemann, David Dilks's work on British reactions to the German resistance, and Roger Morgan's analysis of British perspectives on Brandt's Ostpolitik highlight how ideology, memory, and mistrust interplayed across decades. The final sections shift to Britain's post-imperial identity. John Darwin and Robert Holland explore the contradictions of retreat from empire, while Christopher Andrew's intelligence-focused essay adds Cold War depth. Asa Briggs, John W. Young, and Anne Deighton trace evolving attitudes toward Europe within both Conservative and Labour traditions - making this volume particularly relevant amid Brexit-era retrospection. This collection enriches scholarship on diplomacy, identity, and cross-cultural perception. It is ideal for historians of modern Europe, international relations theorists, and institutions committed to transnational memory and dialogue. -- Contents: Introduction: Personality, Image & Perception: Patterns and Problems of Anglo-German Relations in the 19th-20th Centuries / M.Brechtken; 1 Keeping the Balance - Britain and Europe in the 19th Century.
