...deficit in the nineteenth century and German 28 will bring the survey up to date, but a man not concentrating in German can ill afford to spend two and a half years getting this knowledge. German 24 is a complete survey course, but it is a study of German "Kultur," not literature alone, done in a half year. There is also no required reading in German...

As if any confirmation of the dismal aesthetic condition of Boston were necessary, after Chicago's opera company came and conquered when Boston had earlier thoroughly snubbed two trembling representatives of its own in that field, Chicago intends to ship east another carload of mid-west Kultur, in the shape of its Civic Shakespeare Company.

Like Stresemann he changed his whole political philosophy after defeat. Both men have been flayed as opportunists. Last week in strongly Royalist Munich, where Republican Mann still lives, news of the Nobel Prize was frigidly received by the newspapers, given scant space, small praise...
