Summary "Deutschlands europäische Sendung" by Friedrich Lienhard is a collection of philosophical reflections and wartime thoughts written during the early 20th century, specifically around the time of World War I. This work delves into the concept of Germany's purpose in Europe, exploring themes of national identity, sacrifice, and the role of intellect and spirit in the context of conflict. The book appears to be an ideological exploration rather than a narrative story, with a focus on the collective German experience during a tumultuous historical period. In the text, Lienhard expresses a vision of Germany as a central force in Europe, asserting that the nation is destined to fulfill a crucial spiritual and moral role. He emphasizes the importance of a profound internal transformation for the German people, suggesting that the war is not merely a fight for land but an existential struggle for the nation's soul. Throughout the chapters, he reflects on Germany’s past, the valor of its soldiers, and the need for a unifying ideal that transcends immediate material concerns. Lienhard calls for a rejuvenation of German identity, combining pride and a sense of duty to elevate the nation as a leader of thought and development in Europe. He articulates a powerful hope that the aftermath of the war will usher in a new cultural and spiritual awakening, solidifying Germany's position as a guiding light for humanity.
