A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The aimless and unsettled, but also open and liberal state of our youth we must perhaps all leave and take refuge in our morality and character; but with most of us it is a melancholy passage from which we emerge shorn of so many beams that we are almost tempted to quarrel with the law of nature which imposes it on us. Letters, I, 17. MATTHEW ARNOLD is a charming but not an altogether conciliatory writer. If you disagree with him, he does not encourage you to believe that you may be in the right. When he was a middle-aged man, his favorite sister said to him that he was becoming as dogmatic as Ruskin. I told her, writes A rnold, good-humoredly reporting the incident to his mother, the difference was that Ruskin was dogmatic and wrong This is in the true critical temper gentle but firm and just a little provocative! .
