The letters published here to Meinecke from Hans Rothfels, Dietrich Gerhard, Hajo Holborn, Felix Gilbert, Hans Rosenberg, and others show these scholars' deep respect for their old teacher, but also their growing distance from his historical interests and methods. In a period of struggle between democracy and Nazi dictatorship, the letters address the problems of emigration and remigration, German-Jewish and German-American identity, and historiography in both Germany and the United States.Studies in Central European histories ;v. 49.HistoriansGermanyCorrespondenceHistoriansGermanyArchivesHistory teachersGermanyCorrespondenceHistoriansUnited StatesCorrespondenceHistoriansUnited StatesArchivesHistoriographyGermanyHistory20th centurySourcesHistoriographyUnited StatesHistory20th centurySourcesElectronic books.HistoriansHistoriansHistory teachersHistoriansHistoriansHistoriographyHistoryHistoriographyHistory907.2/02Meinecke Friedrich1862-1954.125986Ritter Gerhard Albert127803MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910459730103321German refugee historians and Friedrich Meinecke2254308UNINA
