Excerpt from Outline of the Principles of History: Grundriss Der Historik I became interested in Professor Droysen as an historian so early as 1882. In real grasp upon the nature and meaning of history he seemed to me the superior of Ranke. This view I have not changed. To assist myself in comprehending his very deep thoughts I soon began a translation of the Historik. At first I had no idea of publishing, but as the value of the little work impressed me more and more deeply, I at last deter mined to English it for others. I subsequently laid the matter before Droysen, receiving his approval in the genial letter which appears upon a preceding page. I expected to finish the work in a few months from the date of this letter, but more pressing labors came and became permanent, so commanding my time that I have never since been able to devote to the translation more than now and then an hour. At last, how ever, after so many years, it is completed, and I give it to the public, appendices and all. These greatly elucidate the "Outline" proper, and may very appropriately be read first. Those who know Droysen's cumbrous yet nervous and abbreviated style of writing will not estimate the extent of my toil by the number of pages in this book.
