About this product
Product Information
English summary: Frederick wanted to make an impact on history- and he has done it since his attempt to flee from the court of his father at 18 years old in 1730. He wanted to be recognized as "Greater" by both his contemporaries and posterity: as a field commander, poet, philosopher and supporter of the arts. Contemporaries already noted these achievements but they puzzled over who Frederick was, and asked about the man's personal and moral character but Frederick made a secret out of them. He left people in the dark about his character and presented himself as something else, was always difficult to predict, but always ingeniously staged and gave concern for his personal glory. The New Palace is the architectural representation of his aspiration. The castle was conceived in detail by Frederick and is should be a triumphant monument of his "greatness." The exhibition with expressive original documents and the accompanying book permit a view behind the masks of the kings. The exhibition reveals in twelve thematic section, Frederick's personality and character, his ideas, his thoughts and actions. That after 300 years new information about Frederick the Great are still being discovered, is also clarified in the volume. The book gathers cross-sections of the research results, the results of the 2007-founded international conference on Prussia's great king. German description: Friedrich wollte auffallen in der Geschichte - und er tat es! Erstmals mit 18 Jahren durch seinen Fluchtversuch 1730. Er wollte von seinen Zeitgenossen und der Nachwelt als Grosser anerkannt werden: als Feldherr, Dichter, Philosoph und Kunstfreund. Dies war schon den Zeitgenossen aufgefallen, doch ratselten sie, wer denn der Mensch Friedrich sei, fragten nach seinem Charakter, seiner Moral. Denn Friedrich machte daraus ein Geheimnis. Er liess die Menschen im Unklaren uber sich, prasentierte sich jedem anders, stets schwer durchschaubar, aber immer ingenios inszeniert und auf seinen Ruhm bedacht. Architektonischer Ausdruck seines Strebens ist das Neue Palais. Das Schloss ist von ihm bis ins Detail durchdacht. Es sollte ein Triumphdenkmal seiner Grosse sein. Die Ausstellung mit aussagestarken Originalzeugnissen und das Begleitbuch erlauben den Blick hinter die Maske des Konigs. Sie offenbaren in zwolf Themenkomplexen Friedrichs Personlichkeit und Charakter, seine Ideen, sein Denken und Handeln. Dass sich auch nach 300 Jahren noch Neues uber Friedrich den Grossen herausfinden lasst, verdeutlicht auch der Essayband. Er versammelt einen Querschnitt der Forschungsergebnisse, Fruchte der seit 2007 von der Stiftung veranstalteten internationalen Konferenzen zu Preussens grossem Konig.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
