Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Medieval and Modern History In the ranks Of the great poets, three men stand conspicuous and alone. With their heads among the stars, to their serene and lonely height no others may venture to climb. By the most enduring and final of tests, a constant ly growing appreciation of their work, centuries after their times and ages have passed away, Homer, Shakespeare and Dante seem assured of a world-embracing and undying fame. NO three men can be named more utterly un like. Each, in a large measure, was the product of his age and Of his environment, acting upon a genius, heaven-born, which once perhaps in a millennium is sent among men.

Most of them are social or literary studies, sometimes suggested by passing events or by some new book of more than ordinary note; others are concerned with philosophical or religious problems in their more popular bearings, while a few are dis tinctly political. For convenience they have been grouped under headings suggested by a certain affinity of subject-matter; articles dealing with American life, some speculations upon the Women's Movement, discussions of the present and the future of British Christianity are gathered into separate com partments.

Download or read book An Outline of Modern History written by Edward Mead Earle and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-07-28 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Outline of Modern History: A Syllabus With Map Studies This syllabus represents a modest attempt to provide teachers and students with a guide to the study of modern history. The book has been so arranged as to permit of considerable elasticity in its use; it is intended to be suggestive rather than authoritative. The topical outline is planned to be neither too abbreviated to provide a compre hensive basis for study nor so elaborate as to furnish the student with a substitute for careful note - taking. It is believed that the syllabus will Offer to teachers a useful plan for collegiate courses in history, without infringing upon the individual's ideas of the relative importance of different parts of the work. Therefore, the topical outline has not been divided into lessons or assignments; no list of books for review or of topics for essays has been appended; no hard and fast rules have been laid down for the map studies. To students - particularly that rapidly growing number who study at home - it is hoped that the syllabus will prove valuable as an aid in the evaluation and co-ordination of facts, as well as in providing a general plan of study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The True Order of Studies The hierarchy of sciences adopted as the basis of this work, was first perceived by me one night about the first of February, 1843, while attempting to answer a chance question. Four years afterwards I began to use it as the basis of lectures on a revised scheme of Common School Education, nearly identical with that presented in this volume. In May, 1853, the hierarchy was first published in an address delivered before the Harvard Natural History Society. I used it in a P. B. K. address at Cambridge, in 1859; and have, since that time, used it repeatedly in addresses, lectures, and magazine articles, and especially in a series of four communications to Barnard's Journal of Education for 1859, bearing the same title as this book.

To Dr. Ward I owe a lifelong debt, which I have never forgotten. With equal gratitude I would recite another name, more widely famous, and very pleasant to me, -the name of Sir William Smith, who, from the beginning of our acquaintance in the Quarterly (which dates back to my considerations on Heinrich Heine reproduced here) down to the last moment in which he held the pen, allowed me every privilege, and gave me continual encouragement.

Download or read book The Power of Print in Modern China written by Robert Culp and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2019-05-28 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amid early twentieth-century China’s epochal shifts, a vital and prolific commercial publishing industry emerged. Recruiting late Qing literati, foreign-trained academics, and recent graduates of the modernized school system to work as authors and editors, publishers produced textbooks, reference books, book series, and reprints of classical texts in large quantities at a significant profit. Work for major publishers provided a living to many Chinese intellectuals and offered them a platform to transform Chinese cultural life. In The Power of Print in Modern China, Robert Culp explores the world of commercial publishing to offer a new perspective on modern China’s cultural transformations. Culp examines China’s largest and most influential publishing companies—Commercial Press, Zhonghua Book Company, and World Book Company—during the late Qing and Republican periods and into the early years of the People’s Republic. He reconstructs editors’ cultural activities and work lives as a lens onto the role of intellectuals in cultural change. Examining China’s distinct modes of industrial publishing, Culp explains the emergence of the modern Chinese intellectual through commercial and industrial processes rather than solely through political revolution and social movements. An original account of Chinese intellectual and cultural history as well as global book history, The Power of Print in Modern China illuminates the production of new forms of knowledge and culture in the twentieth century.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from New Literary Values: Studies in Modern Literature This is not to say that no criticism is good which does not take the form of philosophical investiga tion, but that such investigation must precede any further discussion. Criticism must assume a stable standard of values and constant points of reference, and the discovery of these must be made by each critic for himself. Otherwise there cannot even be an intelligent handling of vocabulary. What can the critic do with such words as aesthetic, form, ideal, significant, unless he has satisfied himself about their meaning by his own investigations? How often do we see quite un defined terms flung about loosely in critical writing which passes for profound! Definition of terms is no simple matter it is not the beginning of a thought-process but the end. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Studies in Modern Church History Classic Reprint written by Justin Smith and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Modern Church History In placing this book in the hands of its publishers 1 hope to be regarded as showing my appreciation of the courtesy and kindness of the successive classes to which the lectures were delivered, in calling for their publication, as well as of the very gratifying manner in which this request was so re peatedly conveyed to me. I wish also in this way to indi cate the gratification I feel in recalling the gentlemanly bear ing of each class towards one whose only claim to their consideration was a sincere desire to be of service. The lectures were first delivered while Dr. T. J. Morgan was Professor of Church History in the Seminary; but chiefly since that important chair has been occupied by Dr. E. B. Hulbert. To both these gentlemen my thanks are due for the privilege of thus sharing with them in their work. It will not be improper, I trust, for me to speak of the special attention given by Dr. Hulbert to the department of church history treated of in these pages, and of the marked interest his students show in those aspects of historical Christianity which concern the church and the world as they now are. Under the leadership of President Northrup the Seminary is adapting its course of study in many ways to the peculiar needs of the present time, and in the particular here alluded to by no means least of all.
