German Freedom and the Greek Ideal: The Cultural Legacy from Goethe to Mann - Palgrave Studies in Cultural and Intellectual History
W. McGrath
This book traces this German idea of freedom from the late Enlightenment through the early twentieth century. McGrath shows how German intellectual and artists invoked the ancient Greeks in order to inspire Germans to cultural renewal and to enrich their understanding of freedom as something deeper and more urgent that political life could offer.
