Summary: "Kulturgeschichte der Deutschen im Mittelalter" by Georg Steinhausen is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work delves into the development of German culture during the Middle Ages, emphasizing the interplay between native German traditions and the influences of the broader world culture. The narrative seeks to illuminate how these dynamics shaped the unique identity of the German people and their cultural evolution. The opening of the book lays a foundational understanding of how a national cultural history must prioritize the relationship between culture and ethnicity. Steinhausen discusses the challenges faced by the German people in integrating elements of higher culture while retaining their distinct Volkstum, or folk identity. He points out that the history of German culture cannot be comprehended without considering the inherent qualities of the Germanic people, the vast social and historical contexts, and the interference of foreign cultures that have impacted their development over time. The detailed introduction sets the stage for a thorough exploration of subsequent chapters, which promise to delve into specific cultural encounters and transformations throughout the medieval period.
