Originally published in 1924 and available here in English for the
first time, The Enemy's House Divided is Charles de Gaulle's
analysis of the major errors that led the Germans to disaster in
World War I. Based partly on observations made during his
internment as a prisoner of war from 1916 to 1918, it can be seen
as the foundation for everything he wrote in the 1920s and 1930s in
the shadow of German resurgence and for much of what he said and
did after the Nazi victory in June of 1940. To de Gaulle, the
German conduct of the Great War and the debacle of 1918 was the
greatest moral disaster ever to befall a modern civilized political
community. He seeks to identify the internecine causes of the
collapse of the German war effort in 1918 and of the subsequent
dissolution of the German Empire. His diagnosis of the profound
moral crisis that unfolded in Germany during World War I points
forward to 1940, for de Gaulle understood the fall of France, above
all, as a moral catastrophe for the French. His first book, it is
also a key document of de Gaulle's ""philosophy of action,""
introducing his statesmanship to the world with its deliberate and
studied critique of the perils of Nietzsche's philosophical
initiative.

Jacob's blessing. And so from Adam to Moses we find a continual
superiority of the father over his children, and the firstborn
above his brethren, approved and established by God himself in the
regiment of his church, and not any precept or precedent for
equality0. CHAP. II. The Iirri it-til and national regiment of the

extend the true knowledge of himself to the whole seed of Jacob,

from the rest the tribe of Levi, to attend the ark and offerings
which be commanded, and to teach their brethren the judgments and
statutes of their God. For the church being enlarged and spread
over the whole nation, the domestical discipline that was before

household j and therefore out of twelve tribes God chose one to
retain the priesthood, and have the oversight of all holy things,
and execution of all sacred service. In which tribe, according to
the number and order of the first fathers and families descended
from Levi the son of Jacob, God did proportion and establish divers
superiorities and dignities as well in answering the sentence of
the law to the people, as in serving him at his altar; and those
not only of priests above Levites, but of priests above priests,
and of Levites among themselves. The first distinction was of
priests above Levites; that is, of Aaron and his sons above the
rest of the same tribe: who were restrained from touching or seeing
the holy things committed to the priests' charge, and ministered in
