Synopsis

Excerpt from Essays: Chiefly Literary Ethical The Essays in this volume were, with few exceptions, contributed to the periodicals named in the advertisement to my preceding Essays. One appeared in the Spectator, and one in the National Review. "Literature in its Social Aspects" belongs to a series of lectures on literature delivered at the request of Cardinal Newman when Rector of the Catholic University of Ireland. "Church Property and Secularisation" is included because, though it is now too late to recall that secularisation of Ireland's Church Property unhappily preferred to a just distribution of it, which last measure would have laid the foundation for a constructive not a destructive policy in Ireland, yet the arguments used by me against secularisation in this Essay and several Pamphlets - arguments which elicited but slight response in that country - are, for the most part, applicable not less in the case of England.
