And as a brash, often reckless champion of freedom and social justice, he challenged not only the reactionary ruling powers of Restoration Germany but also the incipient nationalist ideology that would have...

Particular stories haunt our consciousness and lead to a kind of examination and dialogue that shape notions of morality. A powerful description of a...
