Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Selections From the Wrintings of John Henry Newman John Henry, Cardinal Newman needs no introduction to the world of letters. He who never sought fame is encircled with its aureole, so compelling is the force of a master mind. But to the world at large his name is known only as the author of "Lead, Kindly Light," which in itself is an enviable distinction, yet does not convey an approximate idea of the scholarship or influence of this greatest master of English prose. To know Newman thoroughly he must be read and re-read and pondered. This is beyond the capacity of young minds. But that the excellences and charms of so impressive a genius may not be entirely lost to the young, a brief study of his works is here presented in the hope that a mere acquaintance, early formed, will grow into an intimacy in future years. The light he prayed to see has cast its vivifying beam on every page he wrote; every utterance is characteristic of his truth-loving, truth-seeking spirit. Christian education can ill afford to dispense with such an influence, and we feel confident that no author will be more heartily appreciated and enjoyed by teacher and pupil alike, than John Henry, Cardinal Newman.
