| | The Antislavery Alliance of Gerrit Smith and Beriah Green - New York History Net |
 | | Green's theory that God-appointed rulers were somehow to be innately recognized and then obeyed by the general populace was "impractible" [sic] and "perilous". | | | His misanthropy was, Green claimed, born of an intense hatred of all who in the least way supported slavery or gave credence to a political system which tolerated it. | | | When Green was selected as Gale's successor in 1833, he already had a reputation as an uncompromising foe of the American Colonization Society and an ardent advocate of immediate emancipation. |

| | Bryn Mawr Classical Review 1999.01.13 |
| | Green's readers will be amused by his recollections of the British public schoolboy's twin discoveries about the world of the sexual paranormal and the tools of philological inquiry as he chases to ground portions of Juvenal his teachers wanted to keep from him. | | | Green's determined resistance to Fontenrose's ruthless categorization of Delphic oracles testifies to this, so too does his The Laughter of Aphrodite an exploration of Sappho's psyche for which Green claims genuine historical value, though the novel obviously breaks free of the chains of historical evidence. | | | This aim explains Green's distrust of theory and ideology; it seems also to determine his historical predilections. |

| | Ecofascism / Fascist Ideology: The Green Wing of the Nazi Party and its Historical Antecedents by Peter Staudenmaier |
| | The "green wing" of the NSDAP was not a group of innocents, confused and manipulated idealists, or reformers from within; they were conscious promoters and executors of a vile program explicitly dedicated to inhuman racist violence, massive political repression and worldwide military domination. | | | Still, it was largely Darré's influence in the Nazi apparatus which yielded, in practice, a level of government support for ecologically sound farming methods and land use planning unmatched by any state before or since. | | | The "Green Wing" of the Nazi Party and its Historical Antecedents |

| | Historical_Revisionism |
| | Green's stance as a "passionate liberal humanist" and sharp-eyed revisionist, a fimm believer in the revisionist creed of necessary re-interpretation of history, has consistently involved him in an open challenge to existing academic opinion. | | | As we have seen, skeptical attitudes toward objectivity in history and a general acceptance of the relative nature of truth have led some historians to consider all questions of morality in history as relative. | | | If our own political predilections cannot allow us to approve of what he stood for, we must acknowledge his right to stand for it, and we cannot but applaud the virtues or principle, thought and action which he brought to the championship of his right. |
