Breuer explained: “You can certify that the author [...] has a high level of expertise and an argumentative level - and at the same time you have to criticize the fact that he obviously failed to describe his material in one way organize that allows a fair judgment about Friedrich Georg Jünger. "

The philosopher Thomas Meyer, on the other hand, rated the book as an outstanding achievement for H-Soz-u-Kult : “Ulrich Fröschle's study on Friedrich Georg Jünger, apart from Daniel Morat's book from 2007, can hardly be put aside. The works of the Dresden literary scholar on the Jünger brothers are not only far superior to earlier representations with regard to the subject of investigation, but they also set new standards for the idea-historical processing of German history since 1914 ", and contrary to Breuer, also referred to the" ' liberal 'view of Fröschle' attentively.
