Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Men, Women, and Books, Vol. 2 of 2: A Selection of Sketches, Essays, and Critical Memoirs, From His Uncollected Prose Writings It is curious to see the opinion entertained in every successive age respecting the unimprovability or unalterableness of its prevailing theory of morals, compared with their actual fluctuation. The "philosopher owns with a sigh" (as Gibbon would have phrased it, - for we believe there is an ultimate preferment for mankind in this tendency to follow a fashion), that a court, a king, the example of a single ruling individual, can effect the virtues of an age far beyond the whole mass of their ordinary practisers, - at least, so as to give the moral color to the period, and throw the bias in favor of this or that tendency.
