In this commencement address for the students of Harvard University, Helmut Kohl, former Chancellor of Germany, eloquently presents his philosophy of global cooperation, stressing the importance preserving nature, supporting countries still in the early stages of development, and being open to other peoples. Kohl speaks of people's responsibility to "leave behind a world in which you feel at ease, a world in which more freedom prevails, peace is more secure and natural resources are conserved and protected more effectively," and he believes that by getting to know and understand people from other nations, and by maintaining a cooperative mindset, these things can be accomplished.
This book was set in Monotype Dante by Michael and Winifred Bixler in Skaneateles, New York. Dante was designed by the printer and typographer, Giovanni Marderstieg, and cut for Monotype by Charles Malin of Paris in 1953. The text was printed letterpress on one hundred percent rag, acid-free paper from the Arches paper mills in France. It was printed by Larry Welch on a Heidelberg flatbed press. The tritone of the Brandenburg Gate was printed by permission of the German Information Center. It was reproduced using a three hundred-line screen by Michael Arsenault and printed offset on a Heidelberg press by Thomas Arsenault. All of the printing was done at the Meriden-Stinehour Press in Lunenberg, Vermont.
