| Summary | "Germany from the Earliest Period, Volume 4" by Wolfgang Menzel is a historical account written during the mid-19th century. This volume delves into the history and cultural developments of Germany, particularly focusing on significant events during the rise of Prussia and the influence of art, fashion, and literature in shaping German identity. The opening of this volume outlines how art and architecture in Germany were affected by foreign influences, particularly from France, leading to a decline in taste during the period. Menzel discusses various artists and their contributions, noting a shift from traditional styles to more superficial and extravagant ones. He also highlights the impact of the Reformation and the subsequent French influence on German literature, detailing the evolution of poetic forms and the cultural shifts toward domesticity and sentimentality, all while positioning these changes against the backdrop of Germany's complex political landscape, particularly during the turmoil of revolutions and wars with France.
