Summary "Am Rhein" by Heinrich Hubert Kerp is a geographical monograph written in the early 20th century. The work focuses on the Rhine River and its surrounding regions, exploring the cultural, historical, and natural significance of this iconic waterway in Germany. As a homage to the beauty and importance of the Rhine, it paints a vivid picture of the landscapes, towns, and peoples found along its banks. At the start of the text, the author evokes a deep sense of affection and reverence for the Rhine, describing the myriad emotions and perceptions it inspires in people. It opens with a reflection on a gathering at the International Geologists Congress in 1897, where attendees were enchanted by stories of the Rhine, a river intertwined with notions of beauty, history, and national pride. Kerp shares his enthusiasm for the regions along the Rhine, including stunning landscapes, historic castles, and vibrant towns, while setting the stage for a deeper exploration of the area's geology and cultural heritage that will unfold in the subsequent chapters.
