Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Cardinal Manning: The Decay of Idealism in France; The Institute of France The reason why these essays are united in one volume, the first of them having no obvious connection with the other two, is that they are founded upon three lectures given at the Royal Institution in 1911. The lecture on Manning having been noticed in very generous terms by certain critics, Mr. Longman wrote to ask me if I were disposed to expand it into a monograph on the whole career of the Cardinal, which he offered to publish. I did not see my way to accept his obliging proposal. The work of my life, on France, having been interrupted by wasteful years of ill-health, I felt that whatever measure of strength was restored to me ought to be devoted to the continuation of the long-delayed task which had never for a moment been out of my thoughts. This suggestion however led me to think that the study of Cardinal Manning might be printed in a volume with the other two lectures, on The Decay of Idealism in France and on The French Institute.
