This view and the various aspects of the condition which Lamprecht describes, the relation of the materialism, the pessimism and the melancholy of such a time to the optimistic trends and the deep forward movement need a closer study than we can here give it, but may we not see in it the truth that such conditions as these are prone to cause wars as a phase of the process of the inner adjustment of national life?
Germany, says Lamprecht, was seeking, in this transition period, a new dominant, a new religion and a new philosophy.
"The Annihilation of England's World Power," Essays by twenty-three different authors, including Professors Haeckel, Eucken and Lamprecht; State Secretary Dr. Dernburg; Dr. Sven Hedin, etc. "German Misery in London," by Carl Peters. "Starvation, England's Latest Ally," by Friedrich Simon. "England and the War," by Professor Lujo Brentano. "Against France and Albion," by A. Fendrich.
The historians and philosophers, disciples of Treitschke, were taking it upon themselves to frame the rights that would justify this universal domination. And Lamprecht, the psychological historian, like the other professors, was launching the belief in the absolute superiority of the Germanic race. It was just that it should rule the world, since it only had the power to do so.
Their ambitions went no further than a continental hegemony . . . but now William II had leaped into the arena, the complex hero that the country required. "Lamprecht, my master, has pictured his greatness. It is tradition and the future, method and audacity.
The leader of the most advanced school of modern historians, Professor Karl Lamprecht, goes so far as to declare that the social studies of W.H. Riehl constitute the very corner stone of scientific Sociology. In this achievement, to which all of his scholarly endeavors were tributary, Riehl's significance as a historian of culture may be said to culminate.
