Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Justice in War Time The following essays, of which all except the last two have appeared in various magazines, were written at different times during the course of the war, and are not perhaps wholly consistent in their expectations as to the future, or in their view as to the attitude of the ordinary citizen towards war. In such matters, the development of events inevitably somewhat modifies first impressions. The view that the bulk of the population is naturally pacific, and is only incited to war by politicians and journalists, is widely held among pacifists, but is vehemently rejected by the more bellicose, who point out that men have an instinct of pugnacity, which demands war from time to time. I think it is true that many men have an instinct towards war, but unless it is roused by its appropriate stimulus it may well remain completely latent. The instinct, and the machinations of warmongers, are both needed to bring about war; if either were coped with, the other would be no longer operative for evil. In the following essays I have dealt sometimes with the one, sometimes with the other; but both are essential factors in the problem, and neither can be neglected by any prudent friend of peace. The first of these essays, which was written before the Bryce Report appeared, deals in part with the question of atrocities. Nothing in that report tends to invalidate the conclusion reached in the article, namely: "No doubt both German and Russian atrocities have occurred.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Justice of the Mexican War: A Review of the Causes and Results of the War In this volume I have aimed, by a review correcting the misapprehensions of historians relative to the involved and contradictory movements of the period of the Mexican War, to vindicate the justice of that war; to acquit the United States, as a nation, of the most serious, if not the only, charge ever laid against her honor; and to remove the cloud from her just title to her largest possession. I feel sure that I have stated grave reasons for impeachment of the methods and some of the conclusions of many prominent historians.

Book excerpt: Justice in War-time, first published in 1916, is a collection of Bertrand Russell's essays on war. He claims that humans have an instinct toward war, but that this instinct needs to be sufficiently roused in order to spark conflict. He analyzes British foreign policy during the ten years before the First World War in an effort to discover how England may have contributed to the problem. The essays included in this volume are: . "An Appeal to the Intellectuals of Europe" . "The Ethics of War" . "War and Non-Resistance" . "Why Nations Love War" . "The Future of Anglo-German Rivalry" . "Is Permanent Peace Possible?" . "The Danger to Civilization" . "The Entente Policy, 1904-1915. A Reply to Professor Gilbert Murray" British philosopher and mathematician BERTRAND ARTHUR WILLIAM RUSSELL (1872-1970) won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1950. Among his many works are Why I Am Not a Christian (1927), Power: A New Social Analysis (1938), and My Philosophical Development (1959).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greek Prose Composition Part I contains, in graded lessons, the principal points of Greek syntax, the unusual and non-essential being purposely omitted. These lessons are designed for use at the beginning of the second year's study of Greek, thereby serving as a partial review of the first year's work and as an introduction to the composition work in connection with the reading of Xenophon's Anabasis. Part II contains short, simple English sentences, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. These should be used daily in connection with the reading of the text. Part III contains connected English prose, based on Books I - IV of the Anabasis. This is carefully graded, so that the stu dent who performs faithfully the work outlined here will be able to pass the entrance examination of any of the American colleges. The method of writing Greek at sight used in this book needs a word of explanation. It is the outgrowth of the author's personal experience in the classroom, and his belief that the best results can be obtained only by systematic practice in connection with the regular work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from In Quest of Truth and Justice: De-Bunking the War Guilt Myth In other words, the writer possesses the training to enable him to pursue independent research in this field and to estimate the validity of the researches of others and he has thoroughly studied the sources and monographs bearing on the crisis of 1914. He has chosen, how ever, for two very definite reasons, to act in addition as an organizer and interpreter of the facts gathered by others. The first is that there are many more men working on contemporary diplomatic history as specialists, uninterested in and unqualified for general ex position of the body of facts as a whole, than there are who are de voting themselves to the task of expounding the significance of the work the specialists are doing or who have talent for this sort of edu cational endeavor. In the second place the writer believes that at the present stage of the work there is more need for popular exposition than there is for esoteric research and he regards himself as relatively better adapted to general synthesis and controversy than to abstruse and detailed research. There is a desirable division of labor here which requires mutual esteem and in no sense calls for depreciation. Research without potent exposition is essentially futile; while argu mentation without information is little more than congressional de bating or political campaigning.

This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Government Organization in War Time and After: A Survey of the Federal Civil Agencies Created for the Prosecution of the War A feature distinguishing the Great War from all other wars in which the United States has been engaged is that it necessitated the mobilization of practically the entire resources of the country for its successful proseou tion. By mobilization is meant that the National Government was compelled, not merely to draft into its service all the manhood of the nation suitable for mili tary operations, but to call upon, take over, direct, or control almost every element of the life of the people, industrial, commercial, scientific, and educational, to the end that all these activities might be brought to bear directly upon the prosecution of the war. To effect this mobilization the Congress had to pass a great body of special legislation extending the powers of the Govern ment over these subjects and creating or making pro vision for the creation of a large number of special ser vices through which these powers might be exercised. The present volume has for its purpose to attempt a methodical statement and description of these special war agencies and their operations. It has been neces sary to restrict our attention to those agencies which represent distinct services specially created for the handling of matters connected with the prosecution of the war or the meeting of conditions engendered by the war. Only in an incidental way has an effort been made to consider the work done by the regular Departments and services of the Government. No account is thus given of the activities of the two most important war services of all, the War and Navy Departments. To have attempted such an account would have required another volume longer than the present one. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Culturgeschichtliche Novellen It is as in some sort an introduction to such a study of German as I have endeavoured to indicate, so far as this is possible under the limitations of a commentary on a given text, that the present volume has been prepared. The notes are numerous and copious, but I trust they will commend themselves as not of the kind that paralyse the student's own mental activity by superseding the necessity for it; but rather as stimulating it by presenting suitable material in a workable form, and furnishing guidance in such a way as to lead to future independence. The material has of course been supplied in the first place by the text itself. This has been to a small extent supplemented, but chiefly elucidated and illustrated, by matter drawn from sources many of them inaccessible to the English reader. A not inconsiderable element may lay some claim to origi nality, and perhaps this will be the most valuable part of the book to the real student, because treating from the objective standpoint of the foreigner, specially of the Englishman, matters of idiomatic difficulty upon which only scattered hints are to be found in sources English or German. I may refer particularly to the notes on the particles, on the exact force, as felt in the original, of words like erst, z'ibrzlgms, vol lends, &c., and of certain familiar but peculiar modes of con ception and expression which are too completely ingrained in the consciousness of a native for him easily to make them the objects of analysis or of explanation to others.
