Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Moral Aspects of the European War: A Lecture Delivered Under the Auspices of the Nucleu De Propaganda Pro-Alliados at the Academia De Estudos Livres on the 13th May, 1917 A Lecture delivered under the auspices of the Nucleu de Propaganda Pro-Alliados at the Academia de Estudos Livres on the 13th May, 1917, by Henrique Lopes de Mendonca, Associate Academia das Sciencias de Lisboa. Ladies and Gentlemen: Instead of the lecture I have so kindly been invited to deliver, I should have preferred to preach you a sermon on the text of the sacred words - In terra pax hominibus! On earth, peace, says the text, and it adds: bonæ voluntatis - good will toward men. That is to say, to those of good will, to right-minded men, to lovers of justice, to men who do not place their personal interests before the welfare of their country and of mankind. As to the others, these form a minority, insignificant in numbers but powerful throughout the world by the dissolvent power of their intrigue, their grasping egotism, their malevolent solidarity. I shall speak of them later on perhaps: that is to say, if time permits, and if my audience is disposed to listen.
