A Book of Catholic Essays
October 10, 1867 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information about the book "Essays on Religion and Literature," edited by Archbishop Manning. The essays in this volume are expository and polemical, but their spirit is singularly candid in the main, and their temper is sweet, though grave. The statement is careful, there is considerable purpose to get at the essential matters at issue, and if the tone is now and then higher than Protestants find agreeable, it is due less to the old arrogance than to the new confidence that has succeeded to it. Like the celebrated "Essays and Reviews," the volume under notice is the work of several authors, and embraces a great variety of subject and of treatment.
