Weird how many Fin-de-Siècle and interwar American econoomists knew German and stuff

Idk if it was quite a lingua franca, maybe
@adornofthagn knows, but yeah, i think German was the plurality language of academia until like the 20th century or something -
Both german and french were at least equally important as english in academia back then afaik
-
Yeah, it sucks, I have to care what French economists think
-
And it's not fair, it feels like literally only Say cared what anyone outside France thought, and everyone else who did only cared because they cared about Say
