This is a series of reflective essays which pose fundamental and
deceptively simple questions about Prussia, which for over fifty
years has ceased to exist as a political entity but which continues
to exert a strong and unusual influence upon German history and
contemporary affairs. Professor von Thadden succeeds in demolishing
many of the legends which have surrounded Prussia but pays tribute
to the unique role it has played in ushering Germany into the
modern world. After dealing with comparatively straightforward
questions about periodisation and geographical location, Professor
von Thadden proceeds to examine Prussia"s social structure, its
political character, its relations with Germany, its church and
finally, its relations with Europe. Based on a series of radio
talks in 1979, the book was originally published as Fragen an
Preussen in 1981.
