National Unity In The German Novel Before 1870 is a comprehensive study of the role of the German novel in promoting national unity before the unification of Germany in 1870. Written by Roy Henderson Perring, the book explores the political and social context in which the German novel emerged as a powerful tool for shaping national identity and promoting unity among the various German states.The book begins with an overview of the historical and cultural factors that contributed to the emergence of the German novel as a popular literary form in the 18th and 19th centuries. Perring then examines in detail a number of key novels and authors who played a significant role in shaping the national consciousness of the German people.Among the works discussed in the book are Goethe's Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship, Theodor Fontane's Effi Briest, and Gustav Freytag's Die Ahnen. Perring analyzes these novels in terms of their portrayal of national identity, their treatment of regional differences, and their role in promoting a sense of shared history and culture among the German people.Throughout the book, Perring emphasizes the importance of the German novel in promoting national unity and argues that it played a crucial role in preparing the way for the eventual unification of Germany in 1870. National Unity In The German Novel Before 1870 is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of German literature, culture, and politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
