Abstract

In 1914, Adam Politzer (1835–1920) was invited to the Viennese Toynbee Hall to give a lecture. To prepare for his lecture, Politzer wrote a manuscript of 22 pages, seven of them are particularly interesting concerning biographical information on Joseph and Arnold Toynbee. These seven pages are presented in translation from German to English. Politzer particularly emphasizes the social qualities of these two men. This manuscript is representative of his high regard for Joseph and Arnold Toynbee. It completes the few existing biographies of Joseph Toynbee.
