Excerpt from Modern Idols: Studies in Biography and Criticism An idol is an object set up to be worshipped. The aim of this book is to examine, not to destroy or mutilate the idols under review. The sketches are not given to detail, but it is believed that certain just discriminations of char acter and genius are here made that will not be found elsewhere. And in this belief the work is modestly committed to the candid judgment of the world. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

By natural attrition and reaction there had to come something solid and grand and beautiful in human character, human faith, and human thought, but less straitened and strait-laced. Nature was in her birth-throes for a new type of man, and Robert Burns was the first-born of this agony. Then- Written for the 127th Anniversary of his Birth, Jan. 1886. Goethe, and Carlyle, and Hugo, and Emerson; till at last the heavens and the earth are full ot them. Do you wonder he set the world on fire with his star-clashings and died of his own inward flame? Place your own ear closer to the heart of nature, and learn how, in all ages and nations, it throbs and thumps till it breaks in such momentous hours.
