Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Essays on Various Subjects, Vol. 1 of 6: By His Eminence, Cardinal Wiseman If I owe any apology to my readers for publishing this series of unconnected papers and essays, I must be content to plead the request of many friends, and frequent applications from strangers, to have such a collection made. For, although much of what is now printed with my name originally appeared anonymously, and under the shelter of editorial responsibility, its authorship has been pretty generally known, and never disavowed. This is not uncommon in reviews; and yet there is a convenience in the advantages of such a position; for it enables the writer to speak with a confidence, and sometimes with a boldness, from which he would shrink, if he spoke in his own person, and not as the representative of certain principles, embodied in a collective responsibility. The greater part, in fact, of the essays now presented to the public, have appeared as papers in the Dublin Review and they preserve in this collection their primitive form.
