Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Towards Democracy Complete in Four Parts, Vol. 1 of 4 Edward Carpenter was born at Brighton, England, August 29, 1844. He was educated at Brighton College and a Trinity Hall, Cambridge, taking his degree - as tenth wrangler in the mathematical tripos - in 1868. For some time fellow and lecturer at Trinity Hall, he seemed contented to follow the conventional course, adapting himself quietly to the system of compromises and contradictions supposed to represent the ideals of Christianity and civilization. He was duly ordained, and held a curacy under the Rev. Frederick D. Maurice. But a nature so elemental in its need for light, air and truth could not long be confined in a mould. Carpenter began to realize that he could not do his could not do his daily living satisfactorily, either. In 1874 he relinquished his orders and fellowship, and left Cambridge. For some years he lectured in connection with the University Extension Movement in northern towns, incidentally studying social and economic conditions, and coming close to the raw human material which feeds those busy, grimy manufacturing centres. He contracted the habit of thinking, - and also the habit of dreaming. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
