  1. With an introduction by Havelock Ellis. Varnhagen lived during the crucial period of assimilation in Germany, when it seemed imperative for Jews to escape their Jewishness. From the Preface: The following pages are not a study in literary history; no search has been made for new authorities, and no stress is laid on literal accuracy in the case of the sources that have been used. Such a work was within neither the aim nor the compass of this book. My aim has been to give a portrait of the greatest woman the Jewish race has produced; to my mind also the greatest woman Germany can call her daughter. Contents: Origin; Personality; Love; Religion; Fellow-feeling; Social Life; Goethe; Sense of Beauty; and Letters.
