Produktbeschreibung
Germany's Swelled Head is a book written by Emil Reich in 1907. The book is a critical analysis of the political and social situation in Germany at the time, with a focus on the country's growing arrogance and sense of superiority. Reich argues that Germany's self-confidence is based on a false sense of national identity, which is rooted in a distorted view of history and a misguided belief in the superiority of German culture and civilization. The book also examines the role of the German government, military, and media in promoting this sense of superiority, and argues that this attitude is contributing to tensions and conflicts within Europe. Reich's analysis is based on extensive research and historical evidence, and he presents a compelling case for why Germany's swelled head is a dangerous phenomenon that needs to be addressed. The book is a fascinating and thought-provoking read, and provides valuable insights into the complex history and politics of Germany.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Autorenporträt
Emil Reich was a Hungarian-born historian and essayist known for his intellectually eclectic style and philosophical depth. He was born on March 24, 1854, in Pre ov, Slovakia, into a Jewish family. Reich pursued higher education in several European countries and eventually established a career that spanned France, the United States, and England. His works combined history, politics, and culture with a distinctive interpretive voice that often challenged academic conventions of his time. He was known for his wit, contrarian views, and tendency to blend narrative with philosophical reflection. Reich moved to London in his later years, where he produced some of his most original English-language writings. Often critical of overly narrow scholarly specializations, his essays sought to restore a broader, more integrative vision of history and civilization. His reputation varied, with some praising his insight and rhetorical brilliance, while others viewed his opinions as controversial. Emil Reich died on December 11, 1910, in Notting Hill, London, at the age of 56.
