Abstract

The two volumes under review are part of a renewed interest in the work of Otto Hintze. The volume edited by Andreas Anter and Hinnerk Bruhns concentrates on Hintze's theory of the state while the volume edited by Hans Joas and Wolfgang Neugebauer focuses on Hintze's historical writings. Together, these two volumes help expand the view that Hintze was a historian who only focused on Prussian history and contribute to a fuller understanding of the range of Hintze's scholarship.
