German spiritual history
This book is very interesting! By telling the history of Germania, the author shows how it was used by the Nazis to spread racism. I especially hate the extreme racists who misinterpret the original meaning of this book. In comparison, I prefer the author Cribbs. His research is very in-depth and gave me a more comprehensive understanding of the book. All in all, this is a thought-provoking book worth reading.
During his years of studying hard, the more than 3,000 books lined up on the wall shelves in his study provided him with an extremely rich supply of knowledge, and the various salons in Paris - such as Madame de Tencin's circle, where rhetoric, wit, elegance and affectation were more important than virtue - influenced his social style.
