Five essays by a well-known German historian, variations on "the German question" which includes the question of whether the German nation can or should ever become a national state again.
The best-and most timely-essay deals with the break in 1950 of Gustav Heinemann (a leading Protestant and later president of the Federal Republic) with Konrad Adenauer over the latter's wish to rearm Germany while denying that this would seal the division of Germany.
This question has found new resonance among Germans who have come to ponder their future-and hence their past.

 Real History and Adolf Hitler's reputation
The preoccupations with German identity, as reflected in Hitler's legacy, have continued into the 21st century, but now with a new twist.
In 1969, President Gustav Heinemann obliquely confronted the taboos by wistfully declaring: "There are difficult fatherlands.
One of these is Germany." Thirty-five years later, the newly elected president, Horst Köhler, is simultaneously defiant and relaxed with his 21st-century Heinemann update: "I love our country." Just a few years ago, such a statement would have seemed unthinkable.

For the 1976 edition of Simon Wiesenthal's autobiographical story The Sunflower, thirty-two "eminent persons" gave their opinions about whether Wiesenthal should have forgiven the SS man who requested it of the young Jewish Wiesenthal as the SS man lay dying.
South African bishop Desmond Tutu, the Dalai Lama, West German President Gustav Heinemann, Nuremberg prosecutor Robert Kempner, Auschwitz survivor-author Primo Levi, novelist Cynthia Ozick, journalist Terrence Prittie, German novelist Luise Rinser, pre-Nazi Austrian chancellor Kurt von Schuschnigg, and German-French émigré author Manès Sperber are among the other respondants.
I think I would have acted the way you did, that is to say, refused the request of the dying SS man. It always seemed to me inhuman and a travesty of justice if the executioner asked the victim to forgive.
