Description

Foundations of the Nineteenth Century is a two-volume work by Houston Stewart Chamberlain, first published in 1899. The book is a study of the origins and development of Western civilization, with a particular focus on the cultural and racial characteristics of the Germanic peoples. Chamberlain argues that the Germanic peoples, specifically the Nordic race, played a unique and essential role in the development of Western civilization, and that their cultural and racial characteristics are the foundation of modern European society.The second volume of the book, published in 1912, expands on Chamberlain's ideas and explores the cultural and historical developments of the nineteenth century. He examines the impact of industrialization, democracy, and scientific progress on European society, and argues that these developments have weakened the cultural and racial foundations of Western civilization. Chamberlain also explores the rise of nationalism and the role of the state in modern society.Foundations of the Nineteenth Century is a controversial work that has been criticized for its racial and nationalist views. However, it remains an important historical document that provides insight into the intellectual and cultural trends of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
