Excerpt from An Essay on National Pride, Whether Arising From Excellencies Real or Imaginary: With an Examination of Its Advantages and Disadvantages; And Observations on Religious, Republican and Monarchical Pride
England was not without its version of the Essay on National Pride, but unfortunately, the task fell into hands that were wholly incompetent to its ereen tion, and this is undoubtedly the cause why the work is much less known in this country than it deserves t be. To rescue this portion of Zimmermann's wri. Tings from neglect, and to exhibit him in a dress more worthy of his distinguished character, has been my ambition in the present translation.
