Home Life In Germany PDF Download

Excerpt from Home Life in Germany Germans often maintain that their country is more diverse than any other, and on that account more difficult to describe: a country Of many races and various rules held loosely together by language and more tightly of late years by the bond Of empire. But the truth probably is, that in our country we see and understand varieties, while in a foreign one we chiefly perceive what is unlike ourselves and common to the people we are Observing. For from the flux and welter Of qualities that form a modern nation certain traits survive peculiar to that nation: specialities Of feature, character, and habit, some seen at first sight, others only discovered after long and intimate acquaint ance. It is undoubtedly true that no one person can be at home in every corner Of the German Empire, or of any other empire.
