PEEFAOE. This volume, as its title indicates, is designed as a guide in the treatment of eases of emergency occurring in medi- cal, surgical, or obstetrical practice. I have endeavored to combine, in a narrow compass, all the important subjects, giving special prominence to points of practical import in preference to theoretical considerations, and, with the re- sults of my own personal observation, uniting the latest views of European and American authorities.

We stammered that we had worked for a new heaven and a new earth, and they thanked us kindly and made their peace. When we are their age no doubt we shall serve our children so.” T. E.

I wrote as an historian’s attempt to retell the story of those events — forgotten in the press and clamour of con- temporary news — which after 1918 set the course of mankind for a second time down the fatal and ever- steepening incline towards a second Armageddon. I did so with a full realisation that much that I had to relate ran counter to the prevailing view held both in this country and in Germany. I knew that many would blame me for reminding them of what they preferred to forget.

CULTURE AND DESTINY 29 1 AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATED TO WARWICK G. POWYS INTRODUCTION It will quickly become clear to readers of this volume that it was written by an Englishman domiciled in the United States. This qualifying and conditioning fact does not, however, affect to any appreciable degree the general trend of the discussion. The nature of this evasive thing that has come to be known as 'culture' must, the writer feels, be pretty much the same from China to Peru; and while certain social, psychological, and economic conditions render its attainment more difficult in many particulars in a young civilization, it can hardly be denied that other conditions, no less powerful, handicap its harmonious growth in the countries of the old world. The aim of this book is to narrow down a vague and somewhat evasive conception, which hitherto, like 'aristocracy' or 'liberty,' has come to imply a number of contra­ dictory and even paradoxical elements, and to give it, not, of course, a purely logical form, but a concrete, particular, recognizable form, malleable and yielding enough and relative enough, but with a definite and quite unambiguous temper, tone, quality, atmosphere, of its own.

D Date _____________________________________ ________________ Carrie Rothstein-Fisch, Ph.D., Chair Date California State University, Northridge ii DEDICATION The work done for this thesis would not have been possible without the positive support and encouragement I received throughout my entire career as a graduate student. The sincere gratitude and love I have for these special people in my life have brought me farther than they could ever know. First, to my wonderful boyfriend, Chris, you have kept me sane throughout this entire process. Thank you for feeding me when I did not want to take a break, for making me laugh when I needed it the most, and for knowing when I needed to be left alone in order to get work done. You are my best friend and I could not have gotten through this without your support and love. Second, to my parents: Mom, you have set such an incredible example of a strong and independent woman. You have always selflessly given to your children and allowed us to explore who we wanted to be in life. Dad, you have taught me empathy and I believe that is why I have found myself in this field.
