For the past 140 years, Germany has been the central power in continental europe. Twenty-five years ago a new German state came into being. How much do we really understand this new Germany, and how do its people understand themselves?

Neil MacGregor argues that, uniquely for any European country, no coherent, overarching narrative of Germany's history can be constructed, for in Germany both geography and history have always been unstable. Its frontiers have constantly shifted. K nigsberg, home to the greatest German philosopher, Immanuel Kant, is now Kaliningrad, Russia; Strasbourg, in whose cathedral Wolfgang von Geothe, Germany's greatest writer, discovered the distinctiveness of his country's art and history, now lies within the borders of France. For most of the five hundred years covered by this book Germany has been composed of many separate political units, each with a distinct history. And any comfortable national story Germans might have told themselves before 1914 was destroyed by the events of the following thirty years.

German history may be inherently fragmented, but it contains a large number of widely shared memories, awarenesses, and experiences; examining some of these is the purpose of this book. MacGregor chooses objects and ideas, people and places that still resonate in the new Germany--porcelain from Dresden and rubble from its ruins, Bauhaus design and the German sausage, the crown of Charlemagne and the gates of Buchenwald--to show us something of its collective imagination. There has never been a book about Germany quite like it.

Love Hiipo brand sublimation ink!
Color: B/B/B/B
I have used Hiipo ink for a while now but I ran out and ordered this one. It’s exactly as advertised with the easy fill top. Highly recommend! All of my prints turn out perfectly. I use this with my Epson ET 15000.

Not true EcoTank-style compatibility with ET-15000 refill ports
Color: B/B/B/B, Color: B/B/B/B
I previously purchased the full Hiipoo sublimation ink set for my Epson ET-15000 and had a great experience. Those bottles included the correct EcoTank-style keyed refill tips that insert directly into the printer’s tank ports and allow clean, gravity-fed filling. Because the black tank gets used faster, I later ordered the black refill bottle separately. Unfortunately, this bottle does not include the keyed EcoTank nozzle. Instead, it comes with a pointed tip and syringes for manual transfer. The syringes also do not fit the ET-15000 refill opening, which is designed for the keyed gravity-fill system. As a result, I had to attempt a manual pour and ended up with ink spilling around the tank area. The ink itself has worked well for me in the past and I like the Hiipoo brand overall, but this refill bottle is not directly compatible with the ET-15000 the same way the original set was. Buyers expecting the same refill experience should be aware of this difference.

Great product, quality colors and vibrant prints
Color: 1BK/1C/1Y/1M
Best Sublimation Ink I have found so far. Great size bottles for the price you pay. Lasts a long time and the colors print great and when you press the print the colors come out BEAUTIFUL and VIBRANT! Dries quickly after printing so no worries on smudging but even after sitting over a month on the paper still presses like you printed it that day!
