It will include all those disquisitions on the in
trinsic qualities Of the Teutonic, the Latin the
Slav and the Anglo-Saxon genius, books which
are merely elaborate ways Of repeating the
old barbaric vanity Of a Chosen People. In the
years to come, when Englishmen and Germans
meet and gossip, they will think it very funny
that their learned men invented race mythol-
ogy to justify the clash of empires. They will
scott at those books which treat this war as
bred in the soul Of two traces" from the begin
ming of time. They viii remember that in the
SOS the most fashionable adjective for an
Englishman was Teutonic and the DOGGY words
were Latin and Celtic. They will see again,
what they knew before the war, that race
theories follow the flag and that race mytholo-
gies reflect the course Of diplomacy. Perhaps
