Excerpt from The Experimental Novel: And Other Essays After having explained the experimental considera tions common to living beings and to inanimate, Claude Bernard passes to the experimental considerations which belong specially to living beings. The great and only difference is this, that there is presented to our consideration, in the organism of livings beings, a har monious group of phenomena. He then treats of practical experiments on living beings, of vivisection, of the preparatory anatomical conditions, of the choice of animals, of the use of calculation in the study of phenomena, and lastly of the physiologist's labora tory.

Excerpt from The Rise of Great Families: Other Essays, and Stories "Wherever the distinction of birth is allowed to form a superior order in the State, education and example should always, and will often, produce among them a sentiment and propriety of conduct, which is guarded from dishonour by their own and the public esteem. If we read of some illustrious line so ancient that it has no beginning, so worthy that it ought to have no end, we sympathise in its various fortunes; nor can we blame the generous enthusiasm, or even the harmless vanity, of those who are allied to the honours of its name." - Gibbon. Popular notion prevails that it would be an invidious task to write the history of the rise of our eminent Houses, that the consequent investigation would lead to the discovery of the obscure source of their greatness, that the details would detract from the estimate in which the nobility is held, that the subject had better be left unexamined, and that, "where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise."

Excerpt from Jewish Literature and Other Essays The following essays were delivered during the last ten years, in the form of addresses, before the largest associations in the great cities of Germany. Each one is a dear and precious possession to me. As I once more pass them in review, reminiscences fill my mind Of solemn occasions and impressive scenes, of excellent men and charming women. I feel as though I were sending the best beloved child ren of my fancy out into the world, and sadness seizes me when I realize that they no longer belong to me alone - that they have become the property Of strangers. The living word falling upon the ear of the listener is one thing; quite another the word staring from the cold, printed page. Will my thoughts be accorded the same friendly welcome that greeted them when first they were uttered? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Mere Literature and Other Essays And so very whimsical things sometimes happen, because of this scientific and positivist spirit of the age, when the study of the literature of any lan guage is made part of the curriculum of our col leges. The more delicate and subtle purposes of the study are put quite out of countenance, and literature is commanded to assume the phrases and the methods of science. It would be very painful if it should turn out that schools and universities were agencies of Philistinism; but there are some things which should prepare us for such a discov ery. Our present plans for teaching everybody involve certain unpleasant things quite inevitably. It is obvious that you cannot have universal educa tion without restricting your teaching to such things as can be universally understood. It is'plain that you cannot impart university methods to thou sands, or create investigators by the score, unless you confine your university education to matters which dull men can investigate, your lab oratory training to tasks which mere plodding dili gence and submissive patience can compass. Yet, if you do so limit and constrain what you teach. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Second Person Singular and Other Essays Which had superfluous kings for messengers Not many moons gone by. Antony and Cleopatra. As the kings lag, and then pass away from the stage of the world, many men will ask what there is to regret. Assuredly nothing, if not royalty in the mind of Shakespeare. Mankind will in time probably forget or deny that there was ever anything in the life of the world answering to Shakespeare's royalty in Perdita, or to his princeliness in Arviragus and Guiderius, or to his kingliness in Lear, or to his glory in Cleopatra. It may be so, as to the world; there may have been nothing thus answerable. But there was Shakespeare. And our regrets in regard to him cover all his regalities - the hidden and hereditary and unconscious, and the conscious and braggart and manifest: Perdita's dignity among the romps, and her sportive disputes as to Art and Nature among the clowns, her unflushed composure amid the junketings, and also Lear's loud and indignant death. The splendour of Shakespeare's veneration for kings is perhaps deeper where the kingliness - the blood of it - is unrevealed, as in the shepherdess of The Winter's Tale, for here it is matter of Shakespeare's faith.
