Foundations Of The Nineteenth Century V2 (1912) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781166625627)

Foundations of the Nineteenth Century is a two-volume work by Houston Stewart Chamberlain, originally published in 1899 and 1912. The book is a seminal work of racial and cultural theory that argues for the superiority of the Aryan race and its role in shaping Western civilization. Chamberlain's ideas were influential in the development of Nazi ideology, and the book has been widely criticized for its racist and anti-Semitic content. In Volume 2, Chamberlain explores the history of the Aryan race, its achievements in art, science, and religion, and its relationship to other races. He also discusses the decline of Western civilization and the need for a new cultural and political order. The book is considered a controversial and divisive work, but it remains an important document in the history of racial and cultural theory.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
