Intellectuals and the Nation: Collective Identity in a German Axial Age - Cambridge Cultural Social Studies
Giesen, Bernhard (Justus-Liebig-Universitat Giessen, Germany)
This book proposes a theory of collective and national identity based on culture and language rather than power and politics. A study also of Germany before 1871, it shows how the codes of nineteenth-century German identity in turn became those of the divided Germany between 1945 and 1989.
