That is the difference that must be borne in mind if one wants to understand how this German national soul developed further. How closely it still felt connected to what was around it! How it has in a certain way brought back what had first flowed out of Central Europe! How Italian art flows back from Italianism, and one does not need to be a racial fanatic to describe this, how the spirit of Dante flows back into what is the nature of the German folk soul! How French essence flows back, how British essence flows back! It has flowed into our days in a way that I have often hinted at here. Thus we see that this peculiarity lies in the development of the German soul. It remains in Central Europe, it creates an environment for itself and interacts with this environment. Through this, I would like to say, it fertilizes that which, because of its extended character, is only visible in individual shades.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"14.

Wie strömt zurück — und man braucht kein Rassenfanatiker zu sein, wenn man dies darstellt - aus dem Italienertum die italienische Kunst, wie strömt zurück der Geist Dantes in dasjenige, was deutsches Volksseelenwesen ist! Wie strömt zurück französisches Wesen, wie strömt zurück britisches Wesen! Bis in unsere Tage herein hat es geströmt, in einer Weise, wie ich das oftmals hier angedeutet habe. So sehen wir, daß dieses Eigentümliche in der Entwickelung der deutschen Seele liegt. Sie bleibt in Mitteleuropa, sie erzeugt sich eine Umgebung und tritt mit dieser Umgebung in Wechselwirkung.
