by Ernest Hemingway. Short Stories of Ernest Hemingway Summary and Analysis of Fathers and Sons. The narrator, 38-year-old Nick Adams, is driving through a small town with his son and admiring the fall scenery. It is farming and timber country, and Nick speculates where he would find coveys of quail in the thickets. Thinking about quail hunting reminds him of his father, who taught him to hunt and who has recently died.
Third Reich: Meaning third regime or empire, the Nazi designation of Germany and its regime from 1933-45. Historically, the First Reich was the medieval Holy Roman Empire, which lasted until 1806. The Second Reich included the German Empire from 1871-1918.
Best Answer: Hitler was referring to the Autocratic German empire ruled by Otto Von Bismark during the first world war, which was commonly known as the Second Reich. The Holy Roman Empire was considered the First Reich. Well, it was a reference to Germans trying to get back their Glory Days when Germany was a strong country (the Weimar Republic really hurt for a lot of Germans). The first reich was the Holy Roman Empire (I know, but I didn't make the reichs). The second was the German Empire of 1871â1918. Presumably the Third Reich was going to follow in these two Empires. The history of modern German is often summarised as being 'three reichs and three democracies'.
