Review of an unwritten book, in: Die kritische Tribüne. Halbmonatszeitung für Politik, literarische Kunst und Kritik (Leipzig), 2 (1913), January, p. 73-76Lightly ironic, but on the other hand quite determined to the growing "mismatch between landowning and dispossessed peoples", which is attributed to the "strong closure of the colonies against foreign trade" and even to the possibility of "providing the children of the country with worthwhile employment in colonial civil service posts". Then the "true love of the fatherland of all our great men (Lessing, Herder, ... Fichte, Arndt)" and "the new plant of German >Nationalism>" are confronted with each other - "the German mouth that punishes the German soul with lies". Bonus positive, which concerns a "Western League of Nations" according to the model of "Pangermanism in the Björnson sense". Conclusion: "That we don't want >to have a place in the sun<, but want and demand the participation clearly and clearly, not for us alone, but for all; just the open door. "very instructive; from special print collection folder "Documents. 1912-1914"2 sheets
