Between St. Dennis and St. George: A Sketch of Three Civilizations is a book written by Ford Madox Hueffer and published in 1915. The book is a historical and cultural analysis of three civilizations, namely the French, English, and German civilizations. Through a series of essays, Hueffer explores the similarities and differences between these civilizations, their histories, and their cultural achievements. The book is divided into three parts, each of which focuses on one of the civilizations. In the first part, Hueffer examines the French civilization, its history, literature, art, and philosophy. He discusses the impact of the French Revolution on French culture and the rise of French nationalism. In the second part, Hueffer turns his attention to the English civilization, exploring its history, literature, art, and politics. He discusses the impact of the Industrial Revolution on English society and the rise of British imperialism. In the third and final part of the book, Hueffer analyzes the German civilization, its history, literature, art, and philosophy. He discusses the impact of German Romanticism on German culture and the rise of German nationalism. Hueffer also examines the relationship between Germany and the other two civilizations, particularly the rivalry between Germany and England. Overall, Between St. Dennis and St. George is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of three major civilizations of the Western world. Hueffer's writing is engaging and informative, and his analysis is still relevant today, over a century after the book was first published.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
