Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Life of John Henry Cardinal Newman, Vol. 2 of 2: Based on His Private Journals and Correspondence At Christmas 1863 there appeared in Macmillan´s Magazine a review by Charles Kingsley of J. A. Froude´s ´History of England.´ In it occurred the following passage: ´Truth for its own sake had never been a virtue with the Roman clergy. Father Newman informs us that it need not be, and on the whole ought not to be; - that cunning is the weapon which Heaven has given to the Saints wherewith to withstand the brute male force of the wicked world which marries and is given in marriage. Whether his notion be doctrinally correct or not, it is, at least, historically so.´ Newman wrote to the publishers, not, he said, to ask for reparation, but ´to draw their attention as gentlemen to a grave and gratuitous slander.´ Kingsley at once wrote to him as follows, acknowledging the authorship of the review: ´Reverend Sir, - I have seen a letter of yours to Mr. Macmillan in which you complain of some expressions of mine in an article in the January number of Macmillan´s Magazine. ´That my words were just, I believed from many passages of your writings; but the document to which I expressly referred was one of your sermons on "Subjects of the Day," No. XX in the volume published in 1844, and entitled "Wisdom and Innocence."
