Book Germany and Europe  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Germany and Europe Classic Reprint written by J. W. Allen and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Germany and Europe This little book is the result of a serious effort to understand the causes and the issues of a war in which, whatever we may feel about it, every man, woman and child of us is engaged. It materialised, first, in the form of public lectures given at Bedford College, last October. An honest attempt has been made to state a case for Germany. The effort to do so is a necessary part of any effort to understand what is happening. In this as in all other controversies, a right statement of the adversary's case is the beginning of under standing. Until that is done we have not even put the question and all discussion is irrelevant. If it seems to the author that, at the bar of reason and of justice, Germany has no case, that may be due to his bias or to his general incompetence: it is not due to neglect.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from England, Germany and Europe Never has there been so sudden a change in the complexion Of a nation as that which took place among us during the first days of August. One week we saw nothing but confusion, irresolution, pro crastination; party spirit enraged to an unknown degree the very foundations of the State undermined, the House of Commons, which is the mainspring in our institutions lamed, civil war imminent. For the first time within the memory of man the authority Of Parliament was Openly challenged by men in arms. The discipline of the Army had become a question of party politics and men threatened to throw into the cauldron the Crown itself. Look where one would there was no escape, no solution of the unprecedented entanglement. A few days passed and the voice of faction was dead the two Houses of Parliament'at harmony within and united with each other showed themselves to be representatives of a united nation, and for the first time since the death of Pitt we heard from the Treasury Bench in clarion tones the authentic voice of England.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of Germany The mighty Teutonic Or German race in Europe did not begin to play its part in history until the decline of the Roman Empire; but we must all of us feel the warm est interest in it when it does begin, for it represents not only the central history of Europe in the Middle Ages, but also the rise of our own forefathers in their home and birthplace of Germany. To understand something of these ancestors, we must go back to the Origin of Races in the earliest known history of the World. The Caucasian Race was divided into three branches: Caucasian I., The Aryan, or Indo European; II. T he Semitic; III., Race The Hamitic.

Book German Truth and European Facts about the War  Classic Reprint

Download or read book German Truth and European Facts about the War Classic Reprint written by Frederick Pollock and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from German "Truth" And European Facts About the War It must not be supposed that we are satisfied of the existence of any francs-theme in Belgium, nor can we accept in its full extent the German View that, on pain of death, no man without a uniform may defend his own house or his own wife and children. We have thought it needless to enter on controvertible points. As to the charges of wanton cruelty towards Germans in Bel gian cities in the first days of war, we shall only say that, as made, they are too vague to be examined, and nothing has been heard of them in Europe so far as we know. If they were true, they would not justify or excuse retaliation in cold blood. All the world knows what has been reported from the smaller places captured and occupied by German soldiery. We hope, for the credit of humanity, that much of it will prove to be false or exaggerated. But, in face of the serious attitude of the Belgian Government, we cannot assume that all German hands are clean.

Book Peace With Empire

Download or read book Peace With Empire written by Edwyn Bevan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-09 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Peace With Empire: The Problem Germany must be crushed.' To humiliate Germany would prevent any lasting peace.' SO the war of phrases goes on in our ears to-day. And it is largely a war of phrases. For if one gets the people on either side to describe what sort of resettlement of Europe they would like to see after the war, one does not find much difference, so far as recasting the European system goes. No responsible person in England has suggested that Germany should be dismembered in the sense that regions genuinely German in race and sympathies should be torn away from the Empire. No one on the other side can suppose that a settlement involving the loss of Alsace and the Polish provinces would be contemplated for a moment by Germany, except after a defeat so signal as to constitute in itself a pretty considerable humiliation.

Napoleon triumphed by exciting the enthusiasm of the so-called Great Nation, and was overthrown by the recoil of na tional feeling in Europe. Even the weakest and most severely depressed nations have imbibed 'cou rage from the indestructible vigour of nationality, which has excited them to make wonderful efforts, at times successful, at times unsuccessful, to effect their regeneration: witness latterly the deeds of the Poles and of the modern Greeks.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pomp of Power That understanding was the logical sequence of German policy and of Germany's resolution to impose her will upon Europe. It was the inevitable result of the use Germany made of her victory in the War Of 1870: which should for all time serve as a reminder to the conquerors of a day not to forget that their grandsons will pay for their errors. Bis marck alone amongst the rulers of his nation saw the danger. But von Moltke and his supporters were able to override him, and he was forced to go with the tide.

Book Germany Under Three Emperors  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Germany Under Three Emperors Classic Reprint written by Princess Catherine Radziwill and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Germany Under Three Emperors Amid all the grave preoccupations that have absorbed the world during the last three years and prevented it from thinking about the past I experienced a strong feeling of hesitation before deciding to relate the incidents of which I write. And yet, according to the eloquent remark of Catherine the Great, it is only in reading the past that one can foresee the future, so far, at least, as the historical development of nations is concerned. Perhaps, indeed, Europe would have fared better had it studied with closer attention the events that gradually transformed Prussia into the powerful war machine the great European conflict has proved her to be. The processes of Militarism spread over three reigns. In the development of these processes is embodied practically all the history which Germany has made under William I., Frederick III., and, so far, William II. Any account of Germany under these three Emperors, therefore, must perforce make that predominance the thread of the narrative, and particularly must this be so with the present volume, which deals with the political evolution of Germany in its relations with the rest of Europe. From this same cause, too, it is inevitable that, even to the limits of iteration, one name should recur. For who but Bismarck was mostly responsible, through the three reigns, for the international political situation?
