Book Synopsis America of To-Morrow (Classic Reprint) by : Abbe Felix Klein
Download or read book America of To-Morrow (Classic Reprint) written by Abbe Felix Klein and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-17 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from America of to-Morrow Archbishop Ireland made me acquainted with Abbe F elix Klein, then a Professor in the Catholic In stitute at Paris, and from that day the French capital has been to me another city. The French people can understand us, and sincere Catholics there can open their hearts to sincere Protestants. The gay, gentle, delicate, and refined scholar banters us cheerfully but he really likes us. He interprets for us the inner mo tives of the leaders of the ancient Church, and he be lieves that true religion thrives best in an atmosphere of political freedom. In outer form this prophecy of To-morrow appears to be a jest, a merry notebook of a holiday recreation; in essence it is an affectionate reve lation of a man's soul who believes in liberty and the triumph of truth; it is an interpretation of momentous events which are too near us to be seen in a true per spective. Here is one who is admitted to the evening councils of Paulist fathers, to the private offices of dis tinguished bishops, to the committee rooms of mission ary priests, and American Protestants are taught what immense plans are formed and steadily developed in action.

Download or read book Fruit From the Jungle (Classic Reprint) written by M. D. Wood and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-08 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fruit From the Jungle Most of the chapters herein given are experiences from real mission life, and were intended for papers to be read by our young people in America; a few are the outlines of addresses given while on furlough. Some of them have appeared in missionary publica tions in the United States. As this matter accumulated, friends suggested the idea of printing the whole collection in book form. This I finally decided to do, hoping thus to bring these experiences before a larger number of young people, who might thereby obtain a clearer understanding of mission life among the heathen, and whose interest in this great work might thereby be increased. I have always felt that real mission life among the heathen is not so fully depicted to our youth in America as it should be; hence my plainness of speech in several instances. The refined conditions of society in the United States of America make it exceedingly difficult to explain properly real conditions in this field; but it is hoped that this little book will help to an understanding of the great need, and awaken among our young people a sympathy and soul burden for the depressed and lower classes in heathen lands.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Missionary Memorial: Including Biographical and Historical Sketches Detained lby ill health from the Gaboon Mission, West Africa, to which I was appomted, and unable to engage in the work of the ministry, I have thought that I might perform an acceptable and useful service in the cause of missions by 001 leeting the materials for the volume which is now offered to the public. If I were permitted to indulge in a poet's license, I could adopt the language of another, and say of this work, I have gathered a nosegay of culled flowers, and brought noth ing, of my own but the thread that ties them. But, though humble and laborious, this has been a most delightful work. It has been delightful to go back and trace in detail the his tory of' those plans and movements which have since resulted so gloriously to the cause of Christ. In the earlier efforts in connection with the work of foreign missions in this country, there was an ardent faith, a self-forgetting, self-consuming zeal, that were truly heroic and sublime. It has been refreshing to go back and live over again those eventful scenes. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Judson: Member of the American Mission to Burmah IT has occurred to me, in glancing over the little narrative I have prepared, that those friends of Mrs. J adson who have kindly furnished copies of her verses, may be disappointed at seeing so few of them selected for use. Readers of another class will regret that more of the minute particulars of her missionary-life are not given; as, the precise number of schools in which she was at different times engaged, her efforts for individual conversion, &c. 6m. Others again, will recollect the letters which were so interesting to them, and, forgetting that very few can read them with their eyes and hearts, will wonder that such pleasant memorials of her they loved should not be placed within the reach of all.

Book Synopsis American Problems by : James H. Baker

Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Problems: Essays and Addresses The essential problems of America are not commercial, political, military, or territorial; they are ethical, sociological, and educational, - and the solution depends upon agencies independent of government and politics. While evils are many, optimism is the only sane philosophy, and true optimism sees the worst but strives for the best and has faith in the final outcome. To teach a lesson of pessimism would be an untruth and a crime. While it is a duty to recognize evils, it is an equal duty to describe the vision of promise. The real Utopia is not the perfect State, but an unending struggle toward it. In these pages I believe I have not only pointed out the dangers of our country, but have shown the evidence of progress. The underlying character and the final judgment of the people are sound; we are coming to a consciousness of our ideals, and are learning to know the nature and mission of Americanism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Romantic America The scene in the Spanish mission typifies many a charmed spot where the Old World - doubly picturesque by contrast lives on in the New. We sometimes forget that the hoary ruins and manors of Tidewater Virginia, the half-deserted Georgian villages of New England, the Little Paris of Creole New Orleans, all belong to us as truly as Hoboken or Oshkosh. The large view of the Yosemite Valley typifies our wealth of wild nature. Last year the American people spent something like two hundred millions in seeing Switzerland. We still know next to nothing of our own more splendid Sierras. We grow enthusiastic over small French and German caverns, yet remain ignorant of the stupendous underworld of Kentucky. We make pilgrimages to the colored terraces and geysers of New Zealand, yet will not pause on the way home to see whether Wyoming does not hold in trust a more astonishing museum of natural marvels and beauties. We scramble among Himalayan gorges without realizing that deep in the bosom Of Arizona there waits the supreme vision.

Book Synopsis A True American by : Wendy Jean Katz
Download or read book A True American written by Wendy Jean Katz and published by Fordham University Press. This book was released on 2022-02-01 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that nativism, the hostility especially to Catholic immigrants that led to the organization of political parties like the Know-Nothings, affected the meaning of nineteenthcentury American art in ways that have gone unrecognized. In an era of industrialization, nativism’s erection of barriers to immigration appealed to artisans, a category that included most male artists at some stage in their careers. But as importantly, its patriotic message about the nature of the American republic also overlapped with widely shared convictions about the necessity of democratic reform. Movements directed toward improving the human condition, including anti-slavery and temperance, often consigned Catholicism, along with monarchies and slavery, to a repressive past, not the republican American future. To demonstrate the impact of this political effort by humanitarian reformers and nativists to define a Protestant character for the country, this book tracks the work and practice of artist William Walcutt. Though he is little known today, in his own time his efforts as a painter, illustrator and sculptor were acclaimed as masterly, and his art is worth reconsidering in its own right. But this book examines him as a case study of an artist whose economic and personal ties to artisanal print culture and cultural nationalists ensured that he was surrounded by and contributed to anti-Catholic publications and organizations. Walcutt was not anti immigrant himself, nor a member of a nativist party, but his kin, friends, and patrons publicly expressed warnings about Catholic and foreign political influence. And that has implications for better-known nineteenth-century historical and narrative art. Precisely because Walcutt’s profile and milieu were so typical for artists in this period, this book is able to demonstrate how central this supposedly fringe movement was to viewers and makers of American art.
