Book American Public Addresses  Classic Reprint

Download or read book American Public Addresses Classic Reprint written by Joseph Villiers Denney and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Public Addresses American speeches have always been studied enthusiastically by Americans; not primarily because of their literary value, but because of their satisfying statement of American ideals. The words of Washington, Webster, and Lincoln express the national aspiration in ways that are forever memorable. Their phrases have passed into maxims and into the daily speech of their countrymen. The appeal they make is to the historical imagination, and that appeal is increased when the growth of the ideals presented by these men is traced in the earlier words of such patriots as Henry, Franklin, and Hamilton. It is further strengthened when the opposing ideals as set forth in the words of Douglas and Stephens are well understood. The re-statement of Americanism, made necessary by the outcome of the Civil War, and by the sudden rise of industrialism and the new democracy coincidently with the enlarged sense of world-responsibility that has latterly possessed American thinking, is best found in the words of Phillips, Grady, Cockran, and Angell. These men have put the dominant thought of the age into harmony with the traditional ideals of our republic; and each has done this in the presence of some "new occasion" that taught "new duties." This book provides a collection of speeches and papers sufficiently extensive to indicate the main line of development.

Book The Library and Society

Download or read book The Library and Society written by Arthur E. Bostwick and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Library and Society: Reprints of Papers and Addresses Recent progress in all directions - political, educational, industrial, hygienic - has been marked by the growth and strengthening of a social consciousness. It is this chiefly that has differentiated the modern library from its predecessors and has made prominent our present insistence on the reader as well as the book, as a fundamental element in what we are doing. At first evident only in a general and somewhat vague recognition, by writers and speakers, of a vital relation between libraries and the communities that they serve, it later crystallized into definite discussions of their reciprocal service - that of the community to the library, consisting of financial, material and moral support expressing itself partly in the appointment of adequate boards of trustees and their proper backing, and that of the library to the community, showing itself largely in the provision of books, the collection of information, the control and guidance of reading, and so-called "community-centre" service. These facts have guided the grouping and sequence of the papers and addresses that make up the present volume. The authors, it will be noticed, include more statesmen, publicists, and professional men, and fewer librarians, than was the case with the two previous volumes, thus reflecting the greater generality and wider interest of the subject.

Book Austin Addresses  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Austin Addresses Classic Reprint written by Rabbi Martin Zielonka and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-12 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Austin Addresses Common Ground Whoever emphasizes the particular at the expense of the common, the sectarian instead of the universal, breeds discontent and discourages unity. There may have been a time when progress demanded the literal devotion to a creed but that time has passed. He who proclaims his faith as the only one that leads to salvation, and sends to perdition all who disagree, is living in the wrong age. When the Constitutional Convention of the United States convened, no single faith was ready to give way to another and none were willing for others to gain an advantage. Brancroft wisely remarks, American law was the growth of necessity, not the wisdom of individual. And if such were the conditions in those early days, what can we expect today, when faiths are counted by the hundreds, and when each looks to a constitutional guarantee for its right to worship God according to its dictates. As thinking men and women, we cannot agree upon everything. Life would lose its zest were we to think and act alike. But we can sympathize with each others views; we can be tolerant. You and I can be the best of friends without knowing to what faith the other swears allegiance, and we-can fulfill our duties as citizens of this great republic without parading our religious beliefs.
