Editorial context

These chapters contain nineteenth-century polemic about religions and peoples, as well as depictions of enslavement and abuse. The translation preserves the perspective of the text. In the Fourth Hour, a historical German racial slur is rendered as “Black man”. The numbered notes at the end are translated from the German project edition and are identified as editorial material. The historical accounts and allegations in the narrative and notes are reproduced as statements of their sources.
