Description:Excerpt from Essays and AddressesSeveral of these papers have appeared in periodicals or been published in the proceedings of societies, and I have to thank the editors or the committees for the per mission to reprint. Detailed acknowledgements will be found in the table of contents. One or two besides are published in separate volumes, the Stoic Philosophy by Messrs. Watts and Co., and others by Messrs. Allen and Unwin'. As to these also the details are given elsewhere.To make a collection even on a small scale of one's occasional writings on popular subjects throughout a long period of years is, I find, a matter of some anxiety. A man has generally little confidence in his past self. There is no knowing what it may have done, or what foolish things it may have thought or written, ten or twenty years ago. I confess that when I began to look through my papers with a view to the present selection I rather expected to find embarrassing self-contradictions or indiscretions of which I should now be ashamed. In this I was agreeably disappointed, but I did find what from the reader's point of view is perhaps worse, a good deal of repetition, or rather a constant attempt, by different means and in different contexts, to say very much the same thing.This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
