Book Description

Excerpt from Studies in Religion and Literature Of the Studies brought together in this volume, the first, second, fifth, sixth, and ninth appeared originally in the Fortnightly Review, the third in the Pilot, and the eighth in the Nineteenth Century. I now reclaim them by the courteous permission of the proprietors of those publications. The fourth is reprinted from my Chapters in European History, and the seventh from my Ancient Religion and Modern Thought - works which have been long out of print. All have been carefully revised, and, to some extent, rewritten. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
