  • Author : Friedrich von Holstein

  • ISBN : 9780521179614
  • Pages : 250 pages

Download or read book The Holstein Papers written by Friedrich von Holstein and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-02-17 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Friedrich von Holstein (1837-1909) was Bismarck's subordinate at the German Foreign Office. Since his death historians have combined to make him a monster of sinister and self-seeking policy. At various times von Holstein kept diaries, began memoirs, and wrote and received letters, and many of these survive. A selection of this Nachlass, which was first published in volume form between 1955 and 1963, is presented here. The original effect of this publication prompted an entire re-judgement of Bismarck, of German foreign policy at that time and since, and naturally of Holstein himself. The memoirs in this first volume were written in 1883, 1898 and 1906-1909. They include accounts of von Holstein's own career, essays on political subjects and personal impressions. There are fascinating sections on Bismarck, the Franco-Prussian war, and particularly the deterioration of German-British relations. These memoirs were his most formal compositions of this kind.

Volume 3 is the first of two large volumes of correspondence from and to Holstein. These two volumes are an unusually rich source of primary material on German foreign policy of the period. This volume begins with letters written to him at the very beginning of his diplomatic career by his father, and continues to the end of 1896.

Download or read book His Excellency the Spectre written by Joachim von Kürenberg and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a biography of Friedrich August Karl Ferdinand Julius von Holstein (1837-1909), a civil servant of the German Empire who served as the head of the political department of the German Foreign Office for more than thirty years, and who played a major role in shaping foreign policy after Bismarck was dismissed in 1890. It was first published in its English translation in 1933. “FOR close on forty years Baron Friedrich von Holstein exercised an immeasurable influence on Germany’s foreign policy, but to the German people he was completely unknown. He lived the life of a hermit. He went nowhere. He took no public part in anything. He had no use for outward ‘honours.’ “Bismarck, Caprivi, Hohenlohe, Bülow, with one voice proclaimed him ‘indispensable,’ yet he remains a legend to our generation. His contemporaries admired him, hated, feared him. They nicknamed him ‘the Mole,’ ‘Hyena-Eyes,’ ‘His Excellency the Spectre.’ His policy may have been baleful, the means he used may not always have been fair according to our standards, yet no one can deny his great ability, his outstanding efficiency, his passionate love of country. “The Life of Fritz von Holstein is based on historic events or episodes which took place in the circles surrounding the recluse, so selected as to throw his unique personality into relief.”—Joachim von Kürenberg
