Name: The Foundations of the Nineteenth Century
Author: Houston Stewart Chamberlain

Houston Stewart Chamberlain Original title Die Grundlagen des 19. Jahrhunderts (German, 1899)

The Foundations of the Nineteenth Century is a book by British-born Germanophile Houston Stewart Chamberlain. In the book, Chamberlain advances various racialist and especially völkisch antisemitic theories on how he saw the Aryan race as superior to others, and the Teutonic peoples as a positive force in European civilization and the Jews as a negative one. The book was his best-selling work.

“Though it were proved that there was never an Aryan race in the past, yet we desire that in the future there may be one. This is the decisive standpoint for men of action.”
