Maggiori informazioni sul libro
My observations focus not on universal aspects of human behavior, but on tribal differences. The character sketches that form the core of this book express a desire to overcome ethnic stereotypes that have long obscured the mutual perception of Europeans: the stereotype of the rude and frivolous Frenchman, the lazy and pretentious Spaniard, the boring and humorless German (including his archetype - the stubborn Prussian with saber scars on his face), and so on. If the generalizations contained in this book contribute even a little to correcting past stereotypes, they will have fulfilled their purpose.
