History of Nordicism?

[Hrvoje Vukčić Hrvatinić]

Roots of nordicism is actually Anglo-Saxon world, US and England, it arrived to Germany later.

It probably started when one subhuman inferior-complex german peasant alpine couldn't stand his reflection on the mirror and he started looking around for "better" examples(in his disordered mind) so he figured "Hmm ,I may not look like them but we wuz born in the same geographical area,we relate,let me measure their skullz..what great long head unlike mine,we wuz superiorz!" and then his ideas started spreading slowly like virus to other disordered people like him even to this day.

He wasn't Alpine at all.

I'm just talking figuratively about an hypothetical archetype,someone else's ideas sparked the curiosity in the first anthropologists until you get to one unknown guy who was the original.

Don't know what the below guy is phenotypically:
The first prominent physical anthropologist, the German physician Johann Friedrich Blumenbach (1752–1840) of Göttingen, amassed a large collection of human skulls.
He was one of the first to explore the study of the human being as an aspect of natural history.

I apologize if this type of thread has been done to death a gazillion times over. I just haven't been able to find any scholarly works painstakingly tracing the idea of Nordicism back to its original source and it's driving me crazy. If this thread could function as a kind of repository of links to literature discussing the topic, that would be really helpful. I'm even considering writing my own book-length work on the history of Nordicism at some point.

His face was too long, he cannot be just alpinid

Nordicism is very closely linked to anglo-saxon, german, dutch, Habsburg and other germanic imperialism. Germanic countries dominated the world in the 18-20. century.

We never had much of a Nordic movement here, to be honest (only during the 1930s and 1940s), and scientific racism was never a thing here either.

Don't worry, i have never seen a thread like this opened before, it's new.

Writing your own book sounds like a good idea.

Like it or not the modern world and modern science were invented by mostly germanic peoples, countries like USA, England, Germany. The nordicism, nordic master race theories etc are all based on this world domination in 18-21 century.

But this component was certainly lacking here (although public attitudes would have been no different) Maybe it had something to do with our own colonial adventures that the Dutch, at the time, came up with the so-called Ethical Policy.
