Scope and content
Letter addressed to the editors of the Swiss newspaper Die Tat on an excerpt from Romano Guardini's book "Ende der Neuzeit," published March 15, 1953. Zuckerkandl writes that Guardini's work captures the mentality of the day, but that he falls short in excluding the American perspective. Americans see the move towards mechanization as less sinister because, due to the value they place on democracy, they are more accustomed to see the possibility of freedom while functioning as a part within a mechanical whole.
