Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biographical and Critical Miscellanies, Vol. 2 The vast amount of similar contributions in France during the last century, which, in the shape of letters and anecdotes, as well as memoirs, have made us as intimately acquainted with the internal movements of society in Paris, under all its aspects, literary, fashionable, and political, as if they had passed in review before our own eyes. The French have been remarked for their excel lence in narrative ever since the times of the fabliaux and the old Norman romances. Some what of their success in this way may be imputed to the structure of their language, whose general currency, and whose peculiar fitness for prose composition, have been noticed from a very early period. Brunetto Latini, the master of Dante, wrote his Tesoro in French, in preference to his own tongue, as far back as the middle of the thirteenth century, on the ground that its speech was the most universal and most delectable of all the dialects of Europe. And Dante asserts in his treatise on Vulgar Eloquence that the superiority of the French consists in its adaptation, by means of its facility and agreeableness, to narratives in prose. Much of the wild, artless grace, the naivete, which characterized it in its infancy, has been gradually polished away by fastidious critics, and can scarcely be said to have survived Marot and Montaigne. But the lan guage has gained considerably in perspicuity, pre cision, and simplicity of construction, to which the jealous labors of the French Academy must be admitted to have contributed essentially.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Miscellanies, Vol. 1 of 2 There are, of course, higher and lower degrees of this faith; its object is one more or less worthy: but it is in all cases the belief in certain unseen eternal facts, by keeping true to which a man must in the long run succeed. Must; because he is more or less in harmony with heaven, and earth, and the Maker thereof, and has therefore fighting on his side a great portion of the universe perhaps the Whole for as he who breaks one commandment of the law is guilty of the whole, because he denies the fount of all law, so he who with his whole Soul keeps one commandment of it is likely to be in harmony with the whole, because he testifies of the fount of all law. I shall devote a few pages to the story of an old hero, of a man of like passions with ourselves of one who had the most intense and awful sense of the un seen laws, and succeeded mightily thereby of one who had hard struggles with a flesh and blood which made him at times forget those laws, and failed mightily thereby: of one Whom God so loved that He caused each slightest sin, as with David, to bring its own punishment with it, that While the flesh was delivered over to Satan, the man himself might be saved in the Day of the Lord; of one, finally, of whom nine hun dred and ninety-nine men out of a thousand may say, I have done worse deeds than he: but I have never done as good ones.'

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Critical Miscellanies: First Series NE of the most important phases of French thought in the great century of its illumination is only thoroughly intel ligible, on condition that in studying it we keep constantly in mind the eloquence, force, and genius of Pascal. He was the greatest and most influential representative of that way of viewing human nature and its circumstances, which it was one of the characteristic glories of the eighteenth century to have rebelled against and rejected. More than a hundred years after the publication of the Pense'es, Condorcet thought it worth while to prepare a new edition of them, with annotations pro testing, not without a certain unwonted deference of tone, against Pascal's doctrine of the base and desperate estate of man. Voltaire also had them reprinted with notes of his own, written in the same spirit of vivacious deprecation, which we may be sure would have been even more vivacious, if Voltaire had not remembered that he. Was speaking of the mightiest of the enemies of the Jesuits. Apart from formal and specific dissents like these, all the writers who had drunk most deeply of the spirit of the eighteenth century, lived in a constant ferment of revolt against the clear witted and vigorous thinker of the century before, who had clothed mere theological mys teries with the force and importance of strongly entrenched propositions in a consistent philosophy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Miscellanies, Critical, Imaginative, and Juridical, Vol. 2 of 2: Contributed to Blackwood's Magazine On the ensuing Saturday, however, the Examiner re printed its two articles of the 27th June and the 11th July 1840, containing the original charges, professing deliberately to te-afirm them; accusing Mr Phillips of having done his best to evade every charge specifically brought against him by the Ermniner and offering conclusive evidence of the truth of those charges, in the shape of extracts from the Times newspaper, which had reported the proceedings out of which the accusation against Mr Phillips originated. The Examiner, doubtless irritated by the vehement and scornful tone of Mr Phillips' letter, expressed its re aflirmed charges in very bitter terms; and also in the ensuing two numbers inserted extracts from several other newspapers; complaining also of the precipitancy of fellow-j ournalists in authenticating a charge of calumny against it, without having paused for its rejoinder, but presumed Mr Phillips' answer complete.

After the cloth was removed and the tea was brought up, they settled down to a regular evening at back-gammon, while I was left to amuse myself in a distant corner with my box of paints; and I did so by drawing highly-coloured caricatures of my aunt and her adorer.

They were intended to be fully clothed, orally, by the lecturer at the moment of delivery. Some readers may find fault with the editor because he has not expanded these outlines. His reply to all such is: his efforts to develop the author's meaning would have taken space from the author himself.
