"In the dust of the bibljotek and in the monuments of life and art, in the engraved stones and even in the strata of the earth, history today seeks light to illuminate man's past; as in the practical field, so in mental life there are multiplied efforts to double, intensify and multiply this light, so that with its help the researcher can penetrate through the innermost secrets of the soul of mankind and entire societies."
