Kann Geschichte objektiv sein?

Thomas Nipperdey is widely regarded as one of the great historians. His three volumes on German history from 1800 to 1918 are primarily responsible for this acclaim. Not as well-known as his main work are his brilliant historical essays, often published in venues accessible only to specialists. Paul Nolte has compiled a selection of these essays, which once again demonstrate Nipperdey's masterful ability to analyze complex historical constellations with striking clarity while also presenting them in a compelling literary style. Nolte's afterword introduces us to this exceptional historian, whose essays are, above all, a pleasure to read for anyone with an interest in history.
