Authorship Notes Oration by Hermann Kirchner and pronounced at Marberg by his student Henry de Stangi (or Henrich von stange as Stagl spells it). The piece argues that foreign travel has made Germans more familiar with foreign lands than Germany and therefore that travels in their native lands ought to be preferred those abroad.
