He various publications here reviewed consist of works which are united by their subject-matter but they differ widely from each other in character and scope. The work of Mr Kilbride-Jones1 is a monograph strictly confined to certain objects found in a certain part of Europe; that of Mr Hallstrom, on the other hand, consists of what may be called a comprehensive monograph—that is to say, it brings together and relates several straightforward descriptions of a sin le subject (rock-art), but covers many different parts of a large archaeological region. Messrs Kühn and Adama van Scheltema have touched upon a vast subject—prehistoric and protohistoric art in Germany—so that their productions assume the form of text-books.
* This review was written about the middle of 1939, since when the term has changed its connotation. We do not know how this change affects the ‘nordic cultural organism’ and the general line of the argument.—TRANSLATOR.
† The word ‘document’ is the same as the French word used in the original, and is retained here to describe an ‘item of evidence’. A bronze axe, for instance, constitutes an archaeological ‘document’, equivalent to an original MS. in history.—TRANSLATOR.
