An enquiry by Maurice Pearton
Many German thinkers have seemed to believe that their work is characterised by a special quality of ' German-ness '-a quality often referred to as ' Geist.' Does this ' Germanic spirit - still permeate the thinking of modern Germany? Maurice Pearton talked to a number of modern German thinkers about their work and its relationship to the ' Geist ' of their intellectual predecessors.
