Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Dublin Review, Vol. 27 Art. I. - Essays on Subjects Connected with the Reformation in England, By S. R. Maitland, D.D. 8vo. London, Rivingtons, 1849. Father Feyjoo, in his Teatro Critico, has preserved a quaint old Spanish proverb about people who "steal a sheep, and give away the trotters for God´s sake." There is a class of writers, who, in their dealings with Popery, often remind us of this amusing proverb; who consider a very small grain of praise an equivalent for whole pages of abuse and invective; and, after coolly making away with the fair fame of the entire popish system, imagine that they have satisfied every obligation of justice, by throwing us back a few minor points, as not utterly and hopelessly unredeemed. The learned author of the "Essays on the Reformation in England," stands in honourable contrast with this unamiable class of writers. Few men of our time have done more to break up the mass of prejudice in which the history of Europe before the Reformation had been industriously involved, and to secure for the historical student the means of a calm and dispassionate investigation of the religious and social character of that important period.
