The article discusses the book "New Studies in Religious History," by M. Renan which is a natural sequence of his "Studies of Religious History." It is a collection of essays which are chiefly devoted to Buddhism and to some portions of middle ages. Almost all essays of the new volume concern the extraordinary religious movements of reform which filled the thirteenth century of this era and which were crushed afterward by orthodoxy in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. The article also reports on the fifth session of the Reichstag. The only practical result of the last session was the passage of the law for the workingmen's insurance against accident.
