--Austin Bramwell's fine review of Michael Federici's Eric Voegelin (("Eschaton Redux," July 1) says that "one wonders how exactly Voegelin resisted the Nazi influence." The answer should not be left to wonder or surmise: He resisted by all scholarly means -- courageously publishing three books in German against Hitler beginning in 1933, being fired because of that from the University of Vienna after the Anschluss in 1938, and thereafter barely escaping the Gestapo with his life by fleeing to Zurich.

Details are given in his Autobiographical Reflections, which I edited; this and earlier books are now published in English and are available through www.ericvoegelin.org.

-- Steven Camarota's observation that persons from Latin America inincreasingly dominate the disturbingly large number of immigrants to the U.S. ("Too Many," July 29) confirms that what we are now witnessing is not immigration but migration.

Throughout world history, peoples have moved from one place to another, in the process displacing the former inhabitants. Whether the resulting cultural and political reality is now assimilable by the American body politic is at best uncertain: Identity is key and numbers are decisive.
