Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Proceedings of the Literary and Philosophical Society of Liverpool, Vol. 59: During the Ninety-Fifth Session, 1905-1906 Many of the papers read during the Session were of conspicuous literary merit, and the programme included a considerable variety of subjects dealt with in a manner that sustained the high reputation of the Society. It is therefore with regret that the Council is obliged to report a diminution in the attendance of members, the average, as compared with the previous Session, showing a decline, which it is hoped will be arrested in the coming year. The Society´s publications for the year were issued in eight pamphlet parts, comprising a selection of papers read, lists of members and officers of the Society, and a résumé of the meetings held during the Session. The Literary and Philosophical Society is the most venerable intellectual association in Liverpool, its origin dating from the reign of King George III, and, notwithstanding the foundation of a University in our midst, the establishment of many other societies interested in literature and science, and the development of educational advantages, still renders important services to culture of a kind that would be sought elsewhere in vain. The Council concludes with the expression of an earnest hope that all members of the Society will attend its meetings with regularity, and use their influence to increase its membership, and extend its usefulness by introducing ladies and gentlemen interested in literature and philosophy. The Treasurer´s accounts were submitted and adopted. The following officers were elected for the ensuing session: - Vice-President, Mr. James T. Foard. Hon. Treasurer - Mr. J. W. Thompson, B.A., re-elected. Hon. Librarian - Mr. A. W. Newton, M.A., re-elected. Hon. Secretary - Mr. Edward G. Narramore, L.D.S., Eng., re-elected.
