Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. No Jacket. 237 pages illustrations 21 cm ; LCCN: 08-26696 ; LC: CB214; Dewey: 572; OCLC: 253465 ; red cloth ; no dustjacket ; gold lettering ; top edge gilt ; Contents: Fundamental Principles; Music; Literature; Painting; Architecture and Sculpture; General Considerations; Intellectual and Emotional Characteristics; Customs and Institutions. ; "Most prominent among the Aryan races are the Graeco-Latins and Teutons: besides the ancient Greeks and Romans, the former comprise the Italians, Spaniards, Portuguese, French, and Wallachians; the latter include the Germans, English, Dutch, and Scandinavians. Though resembling one another in many respects when compared with non-Aryan peoples, these races exhibit striking differences of character and institutions when contrasted inter se. The Greeks and Latins are talkative, vivacious, and quick in their actions, the English and Germans taciturn and deliberative. The latter are passionate lovers of nature, the former evince but little enthusiasm for the glories of Pan. Southern nations have excelled in sculpture and painting, northern ones in music. Gothic cathedrals bewilder with their complexity, Greek temples are simple and of exquisite proportions. Some of the distinctions have been merged into broader ones. Graeco-Latin art may be characterised as classic, Teutonic art as romantic, a generalisation which comprises a multitude of smaller differences. On the one hand the form is said to receive more attention, on the other the significance. Teutonic modes ~Tff~thought are inclined to be religious, southern nations manifest a tendency toward worldliness and sensuality. These distinctions are good so far as they go; but they do not go far enough. Many are confined to a single field, and none endeavours to include the whole mental and artistic domain in a comprehensive definition. What has Italian impulsiveness to do with the peculiarities of Italian opera; how is German taciturnity connected with German love of counterpoint; what is the bond of union between the prevalence of assassination in southern countries and the classicism of art; what is the common element in Teutonic persistency, religiousness, and love of nature; wherein lies the relation between French lucidity of style and French worldliness?" ; "This book is a study in race psychology made with the purpose of simplifying and reducing to their lowest terms the differences revealed in the literature, art, and life of the Graeco- Latin and Teutonic peoples. A work of this kind-to come within measurable distance of accomplishing its purpose- could only have been written by an author who combined broad culture with a rare capacity for safe and sweeping generalization, psychological insight, and, last and not least, sound sense. It is the combination of such qualities that gives this book its value, and that secured for it, in advance of publication, golden opinions in high places."--Putnam's 1910 ; "This treatise on racial contrasts shows considerable power of analysis and brilliancy of illustration."-- St. John Daily Telegraph, 1910 ; ex-library, stamps, label ; one or two pencilings ; VG.
