 | Absolute Destruction Hull argues that the routines and practices of the Imperial German Army, unchecked by effective civilian institutions, increasingly sought the absolute destruction of its enemies as the only guarantee of the nation's security. Isabel V. Hull is John Stambaugh Professor of History at Cornell University. She is the author of Sexuality, State, and Civil Society in Germany, 1700-1815 (also from Cornell) and The Entourage of Kaiser Wilhelm II, 1888-1918, and the coeditor of German Nationalism and the European Response, 1890-1945. |
