“An examination of a few of the documents in connection with originals bears out the contention of the translator, although it must be admitted that faithfulness to the letter of the law has sometimes produced an unnecessary awkwardness and an occasional obscurity. Unfortunately the editor does not anywhere state the authoritative text on which he has founded his translation—a serious omission in a scholarly work of this character.” C: A. Beard.

=Dole, Charles Fletcher.=^{[9]} Ethics of progress: or, The theory and
the practice by which civilization proceeds. **$1.50. Crowell.

9–24682.

A discussion whose aim is “to set forth a simple, philosophical, and inspiring vital principle, which governs all ethical questions, and ensures the development of noble, useful, happy character. The treatment touches the great issues of human life, the significance of conscience, the problem of evil, the supposed antagonism between freedom and necessity. The effort is made to treat such questions without any theological or metaphysical prepossessions, but simply from the study of the facts of consciousness.” (Preface.)

“Calls attention to the extreme scantiness, as he thinks, of our trustworthy knowledge of Jesus, yet he finds sufficient evidence to prove that Jesus should not be given any position of supreme uniqueness among other good men of the past. Some of his deeds and words when judged by a true standard seem to be thought actually immoral, the more worthy side of his work was not new, and it was not he but Paul who was principally responsible for the founding of Christianity. The synoptic gospels, or at least so much of them as suit the author’s purpose, are used to illustrate inconsistencies in Jesus’ life and teaching, which are thought to bring him quite to the common level.”—Am.

“If we regard the amount of space devoted to a subject as indicating to a certain extent the importance of the subject, then this volume shows some rather remarkable conceptions.

9–35332.

“Few have dealt more suggestively with the romance of religion than Miss Dougall without deviating from a reverent sympathy with its highest aims. From this point of view, ‘The paths of the righteous’ demands attention as a powerful, and eloquent plea for comprehension and toleration in regard to the question of religious education. But the story is very far from being a mere theological pamphlet. It certainly is a novel with a purpose, but it is singularly free from partisanship. The case of the Nonconformists is at least as fully stated as that of the Anglicans, and though the writer practices an artistic self-effacement, there can be no doubt of her earnest desire to render faithful justice to sincere extremists, while advocating the ‘via media’ as the true solution.”—Spec.

“While her work in its essentials is an eirenicon, Miss Dougall does not discard the use of wit and satire—satire none the less mordant for its delicacy—to reinforce her argument. The book can be read with pleasure even by those who may be indifferent to its guiding purpose. Miss Dougall’s eloquence and distinction of style, have never been more happily displayed than in these pages.”

In the introductory chapter he gives a brief history of the American Indians in New England, which will stimulate the reader’s interest: curiosity is fully aroused by descriptions of these aborigines.

“In this volume Professor W. E. B. Du Bois, the editor, continues his interesting and valuable studies of negro life. The present volume is rather fragmentary in character, and covers a wide range of topics, beginning with an introductory chapter on the economic development of the negro in Africa and tracing his history through slavery and emancipation to the present time. This is followed by extensive quotations of the statistics of the material wealth and development of the church, school, benefit, insurance and secret societies, banks, and co-operative businesses conducted by negroes.”—Ann. Am. Acad.

“This issue, therefore, presents to the student a multitude of facts whose value of course depends largely upon their accuracy. We must probably assume that the majority of them are correct but it so happens that the only comparison made of statistics of church membership shows that they are widely at variance with those given in an earlier publication.
