Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Vox Clamantis My illustrious ancestor, Numa Pompilius, when he made laws for Rome, those wise laws whose influence can be traced in every modern constitution, took counsel from time to time in a secluded cave with a judicious nymph, Egeria. There he put aside the divided opinions, the jealous strife, the narrow and personal prepossessions, of his other advisers, and drew in the sublime and impartial wisdom of his faery colleague. Numa was a practical ruler of men; Egeria was a philosopher; the alliance of practical judgment with philosophic breadth of view produced then, and always will produce, the highest qualities of statesmanship. The author of these essays has retired to the philosophic cave from time to time during his thirty years of industrious life; what he has heard or dreamt of there, he has set down here in compendious form; not troubling to repeat what others have worked out before, but taking as his groundwork the doctrines of publicists, economists, and historians, so far as they have received and appear to deserve general approval.
