A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The following computer-generated description may contain errors and does not represent the quality of the book.

Introduction excepted of reprints from the Contemporary Review the old National Review and the Spectator is not like many such reprints a bundle of disconnected thoughts. All the papers are directed to one end a description of those inherent differences between JLurope and Asia which forbid one continent permanently to conquer the other. The struggle between Europe and Asia is the binding thread of history; the trade between ILurope and Asia is the foundation of commerce; the thought of Asia is the basis of all European religions: but the fusion of the Continents has never occurred and in the Authors best judgement will never occur. It is rather a saddening reflection that the thoughts of so many years are all summed up by a great poet 1 in four lines; The East bowed low before the blast, In patient deep disdain, She let the legions thunder past Then plunged in thought again.1 Matthew Arnold.
