Abstract

Romanica and Teutonica
July 1, 1875 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information about the book "Wälsches und Deutsches," by Von Karl Hillebrand. Its unity, so far as it can be said to have any, consists solely in the author's style, his way of looking at men and books. The first section, entitled "Renaissance," comprises three essays on Petrarch, Lorenzo de' Medici, and the Borgias. Then follow the essays upon Italy of today. The reader who wishes to inform himself upon the oddest phase of German politics, the role-played by the professors and their satellites in 1848, and their fiasco, will find it set forth here with masterly acumen. The wave of criticism runs high, but one cannot decide as yet whether the tide is advancing or receding.
