A Modern Outlook

Excerpt from A Modern Outlook: Studies of English and American Tendencies
The Essays which comprise this volume have appeared at intervals during the last three years in the section of The Nation entitled 'Life and Letters, ' and I am indebted to the Editor for permission to republish them. Most of them are social or literary studies, sometimes suggested by passing events or by some new book of more than ordinary note; others are concerned with philosophical or religious problems in their more popular bearings, while a few are distinctly political. For convenience they have been grouped under headings suggested by a certain affinity of subject-matter; articles dealing with American life, some speculations upon the Women's Movement, discussions of the present and the future of British Christianity are gathered into separate compartments.
