viii, 159 p.; 22 cm. VG orig. tan cloth in vg dj. `the troubles of mankind arise chiefly from imperfections in man which are due to the appearance of self-consciousness' (27) `The physical unification of the world has increased feelings of insecurity. Formerly you could, generally speaking, only be attacked by your near neighbours; nowadays you may be threatened by people who live on the other side of the world. Moreover, the advance of technology has given men new weapons of mass-destruction--though the historian may doubt whether Hiroshima was more horrible than,say, some of the atrocities of the Mongols in the thirteenth century, the former is much nearer to ourselves. These feelings of insecurity,whether in nations or in smaller bodies politic,lead to a magnifying ofthe importance of one's own group and a belittling of the importance of other groups. The nomadic Arabs prior to Muhammad illustrate thiswiththeir two kinds of poem;in one they "boasted" ofthe glories oftheir own tribe and showed how its heroic achievements exemplified the highest human excellence (as they conceived it),while inthe other they spoke of the baseness and contemptibility of their enemies.Despite the many differences, modern war propaganda has the same basic pattern.Onthe one hand it portrays one's own side as superior in various ways--in ideals,in general conduct and in military success;and onthe other hand it suggests the inferiority of the enemy--his false ideals, his lower standards of conduct (sometimes amounting to atrocities), and his military failures. As people become more sophisticated, more subtlety is required to induce them to believe in their own superiority and their enemies' inferiority. The basic needs of average human beings, however, remain the same.' (123 f.). Binding is Hardcover.…

Reprint, stapled. Zustand: Gut. pp. 36-45. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of the ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Binding slightly bumped, light margins, paper browned, otherwise clean. - From the text: It was, I believe, in 1896 that I became a member of the distinguished professional group known to librarians everywhere by the initials A.L.A., but to others as the American Library Association. It was owing to Dr. G. E. Wire that I joined in advance of the Cleveland conference of 1896, with the serial number 1435, and I have always been peculiarly grateful to him for insisting that I become a member. The A.L.A. was only twenty years old when I joined. It was a very simple organizationno paid officers or staff, a complete absence of formality about its meetings, and a real and sincere discussion of issues raised at them. I still recall the gale of laughter that at one of the meetings at Cleveland greeted the opening words of Mr. Wing, of Scribners, I have read a great many bad books. It was some minutes before he could go on to add, But the Damnation of Theron Ware is the worst of the lot. It was his sincere manner rather than his words which caused the laughter. Real discussion marked the meetings, in sad contrast to the present day when some five thousand is not an unusual attendance. There were about three hundred present at Cleveland, if my memory serves me. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.…
