Influence
John Robert Seeley dedicated his biography of Heinrich Friedrich Karl vom und zum Stein to Pauli, stating that "Germany may boast of having put the history of every great European state as much within the reach of her public as her own history. Your countrymen can study the affairs of foreign countries not merely in translations, or hasty magazine-articles, but in elaborate works, written in their own language, with full responsibility and independence of judgment, written also by those who understand clearly the wants the public which they write. Among this group of writers you are best known in England, and I shall make my object in writing this best understood by announcing in this dedication that I belong to your school"[3]
