Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heroines of Freethought To-day we stand at the opening of a grand vista of civil and religious liberty. Science has sealed as the truth many of the hitherto vague questionings of those who, in honest search Of the truth, had long ago come to doubt creeds and dogmas. In time to come they who first dared to pioneer the way to perfect freedom of thought will be looked upon as the benefactors of those whom at first they only shocked. Among these bene factors must be counted the isolated women whose life-sketches make up this little volume. In selecting the subjects for these sketches, regard was had only to the thor ough Radicalism of the views they held. There are many noble women of Liberal tendencies of thought, whose names are well known, who have done good and effective work for Freethought so far as they under stood it; but the most of these have only succeeded in throwing aside creeds and all sectarianism, as belittling and cramping to the human mind, while still clinging to all.

Download or read book The Renaissance and Welsh Literature written by William Meredith Morris and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-11 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Renaissance and Welsh Literature: Being a Review of Some of the Welsh Classics in the Light of the Humanistic Movement These Simple reflections upon some of the more notable of our Welsh classics are put in print for the benefit Of the intelligent laity among whom I labour, and are intended as a stimulus to further and deeper reading of the books discussed. They pretend to be no more than they really are - Simple reflections. The line of thought adopted starts from the assumption that in investigating the history of literature the best method of procedure is to extract general history from the life-story Of individuals and their books. The more marked characteristics of any period of literature are revealed in certain authors who may be taken as types Of that period. The seers of any age are few as compared with the visionless multitude, but it is to them we must go for an interpretation of the writing upon the wall. In the works of master-minds, the spirit of the age in which these minds lived is incarnate, - is clothed with literary flesh and blood. Great men may not be able to grasp the whole of any truth, or see the ultimate issue Of the part of it which they discover; but what they do see and grasp they handle with the dexterity begotten of intellectual and Spiritual superiority.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Four Great Humanists, Vol. 9 There is one master problem of the ages; - a problem at which have toiled all generations of men, all races, all conditions, all times, all societies; - a problem which includes all others, summing up in its own vast synthesis everything that elsewhere is separately worked out as religion, philosophy, social order, art, science, or mastery of the material world. It is the human problem, as one of its latest students has called it: - how to make man truly human; how to bring him into the inheritance which is plainly his; how to realize for him the kingly destiny which all augury foretells; how to crown him - individually and socially, with that perfection of strength, beauty, and happiness in himself and in his surroundings, without which his. life, however splendid in outward circumstance, must ever seem forlorn and tragic. The ages have toiled at this problem; but for the most part merely on some special element or factor in it, without any adequate vision of its vast scope - without clear consciousness even of what they were doing. Only twice, so far as we know, in the history of the race has the problem as a whole come clearly into view, and received the conscious consideration it calls for: - once in Plato's time, and once again in ours.
