Littell's Living Age (Classic Reprint) by Eliakim Littell Pdf

Excerpt from Littell's Living Age We said at the outset that the main feature of this book, after its scandal, was its dulness; but this is obviously a charge which we could not fully substantiate without becoming, to a degree of which our readers would complain, the author's accomplices. One specimen, however, of what he considers as wit and pleasantry will sufficiently justify our opinion; and it may find a place here, as being another of his lordship's leaden shafts against Mr. Pitt. When visiting Paris during the Consulate he enjoyed the society, among other worthies. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Littell's Living Age, 1865 (Classic Reprint) by Eliakim Littell Pdf

Excerpt from Littell's Living Age, 1865 The 'result of the different conditions under which the colonies of the nations of Europe were planted and governed is sufficiently striking. The Spaniards and Portuguese of America, of pure blood, now hardly equal in number the people of the little kingdom 'of Portugal. The French colonists hardly amount to the poor fraction of a seventieth part of the population of France, and live under a foreign rule, while the English colonists equal in number the population of the parent land that sent them forth.

Littell's Living Age, Vol. 1 by E. Littell Pdf

Excerpt from Littell's Living Age, Vol. 1: From 11 April to 3 August, 1844; With a Complete Index I must not, says Mr. Simpson, close this part of the narrative without bestowing a just encomium on the generally docile character of the natives of Great Bear Lake. They soon become attached to white men, and are fond of imitating their manners. In our little hall I have repeatedly seen the youngsters who were most about us get up from their chairs, and politely hand them to any of our people who happened to enter. Some of them even learned to take off their caps in the house, and to wash instead of greasing their faces. Their indulgent treatment Of their women, who indeed possess the mastery, was noticed by Sir J. Franklin. I wish I could speak as favorably of their honesty and veracity. - p. 243.

Littell's Living Age, Vol. 3 by E. Littell Pdf

Excerpt from Littell's Living Age, Vol. 3: From the Beginning, Volume LIX; October, November, December, 1858 The Old man sat by the chimney side His face was wrinkled and wan, And he leaned both hands on his stout oak cane, As if all his work were done. His coat was of good Old-fashioned gray, The pockets were deep and wide, Where his specks and his steel tobacco box Lay snugly side by side. The old man liked to stir the fire, So near him the tongs were kept; Sometimes he mused as he gazed at the coals, Sometimes he sat and slept. What saw he in the embers there? Ah! Pictures Of other years; And now and then they wakened smiles. But Oftener started tears. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Littell's Living Age, Vol. 58 by E. Littell Pdf

Excerpt from Littell's Living Age, Vol. 58: July, August, September, 1858 He is fond of iterating an idea, and clothing it in every imaginable form of words - piling Ossa on Pelion - and making each sentence rise in the scale of impressiveness. Some of his periods may be too long, and there is a danger lest the attention of the hearer - orper haps we ought now to say the reader - should flag while pausing for the climax of the sen tence; but there is no false grammar - no anacoluthon - no confusion of metaphor, and out of the longest sentence or succession of sentences, he winds himself with unerring accuracy.

Littell's Living Age, Vol. 190 by Robert S. Littell Pdf

Excerpt from Littell's Living Age, Vol. 190: July, August, September, 1891 It seems difficult to imagine that at an interval of time which might be covered by seven long lives the only two powers in the State were the king and the nobles; that battles between contending armies were sometimes decided by single combat; that lepers were burnt alive; that bands of robbers met in troops like armies and overran the country; that an annual trib ute was paid to the p0pe; and that the king was able at will to plunder and banish the Jews, and to appropriate so much of the money and plate of the monasteries and churches as suited his purpose. Yet such was the state of things when Geof frey le Baker took up his pen, and when Edward I. Sat on the throne as king of England and France and lord of Ireland. At that time Scotland owed no allegiance to the English crown; but on the contrary waged a perpetual war against her south ern neighbor, mainly on account of the constant interference of the English king in the matter of the Scotch successions.

Littell's Living Age, Vol. 11 (Classic Reprint) by E. Littell Pdf

Excerpt from Littell's Living Age, Vol. 11 To hold in check these estimable qualities, there existed in the first place a quite inordinate caution, which never permitted them to range freely over the domains of science. Wollaston's caution was of 'a peculiar kind. It was not the wariness of timidity or self-distrust. He was in all respects a coura geons man. And had much more self-reliance than Davy. The boldness of a speculation would not have deterred him from entertaining it. It would, in truth, have been neither a recommendation nor an objection to any suggestion. Fearlessness or timidity, as evinced in a hypothesis or theory, were qualities intangible to science, which was only con cerned with the question, was the speculation true, or was it not?

Littell's Living Age, Vol. 18 by E. Littell Pdf

Excerpt from Littell's Living Age, Vol. 18: July, August, September, 1848 Paragraphs so pungent as the above, with the conclusion appended to them, that society was in a state of utter confusion and required reorganization, naturally gave offence in high quarters; and a prosecution was instituted against the author, which, however, terminated in an acquittal. The peculiar value of a pamphlet so slight as the Parabole, as connected with the history of saint-simon is, that in it he first asserted in language level to the pop ular apprehension, the superiority of the industrial classes in society, and his idea that their interests should be the peculiar care of the political system.
