Sinossi
Una figura in chiaroscuro, che spicca in armi, lampeggiante, da uno sfondo di penombra: Bismarck è simile alle visioni pittoriche di Rembrandt e così dev'essere raffigurato. Un uomo che ha attirato l'odio dei partiti per ottant'anni e che, dopo la morte, irrigidito a statua, è diventato un granitico Rolando per il suo popolo. Questo libro ci restituisce l'immagine del lottatore errante e vittorioso, dal carattere pieno di orgoglio e di coraggio, nella consapevolezza che un personaggio storico è sempre più organico del suo sistema e sempre più complesso del suo monumento.
