Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Dublin Review, Vol. 151 There was a time, not so many years ago, when of all the names conspicuous in the Oxford Movement that of William George Ward might have seemed to be least remembered by the English public. Newman, writing his Apologia, deliberately passed it over. The once-famous volume, which fastened on its author a somewhat mirth-provoking Homeric epithet as "Ideal" Ward, was never reprinted after 1845. Controversies where the champion of a new Ultramontane theory joined battle with Liberal Catholics slumbered, after the Vatican Council, in the pages of this and other periodicals which had formerly been lit up by their smoky fires. The Metaphysical Society "died of too much love"; and its achievements were so purely negative that they left not a line of record. John Stuart Mill, with his Logic and his philosophy of experience, gave place to a deeper psychology or a bolder Monism; and the arguments by which Ward refuted him in the day of his power, though they must play their part so long as thought is assailed by sceptics, were overlooked amid the brilliancies of a showier style, as when Mr Balfour sought to establish the Foundations of Belief. Neither in the Oxford Movement nor the Catholic Revival did this undeniably keen intellect, with its great driving force, win the acknowledgment it deserved. Later contributions to biographical literature changed all this. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
