Ruskin the Prophet
And Other Centenary Studies By JOHN MASEFIELD, DEAN INGE,
C. F. G. MASTERMAN, and Others
Edited by J. HOWARD WHITEHOUSE

Demy 8vo. 8s. 6d. net.

An important and authoritative book on Ruskin, containing critical appreciations and essays by John Masefield, Dean Inge, J. A. Hobson, Charles Masterman, H. W. Nevinson, Laurence Binyon, and the editor, Howard Whitehouse. Among the subjects dealt with are the Influence of Ruskin in Modern Life, his social and economic teaching, his relation to Plato, and many other aspects of his teaching and influence. The book will be a fitting complement to the remarkable exhibition of Ruskin’s drawings recently held at the Royal Academy.

The Harvest of Ruskin

By Principal JOHN W. GRAHAM, M.A.

Cr. 8vo. 7s. 6d. net.

A critical but sympathetic estimate of the net result of Ruskin’s teaching in the regions of economics and social reform, education and religion, examined in the light of the present situation between Capital and Labour, the advocacy of Guild Socialism, and the widespread unsettlement about religion.

Pagan and Christian Creeds

Their Origin and Meaning

Demy 8vo. By EDWARD CARPENTER 10s. 6d. net.

“A splendid theory, and Mr. Carpenter’s exposition of it is done with an infectious enthusiasm ... like all this veteran writer’s work, a sincere contribution to the world’s stock of knowledge.”—Daily Chronicle.

“ ... A genius which is both scientific and artistic, philosophic and poetic. Such genius sees and gives the reader visions.”—Observer.

The Making of Humanity

Demy 8vo. By ROBERT S. BRIFFAULT 12s. 6d. net.

“An astonishing book ... a tour de force of rapid historical exposition. A masterly analysis of human progress. We hope Democracy will study this brace and brilliant book.”—English Review.

The History of Social
Development

By Dr.
F. MÜLLER-LYER

Translated by ELIZABETH COOTE LAKE & H. A. LAKE, B.Sc. (Econ.) With an Introduction by Professors L. T. HOBHOUSE & E. J. URWICK

Demy 8vo. 18s. net.

This translation of Dr. F. MÜller-Lyer’s famous book, “Phasen der Kultur,” will appeal to all who are interested in labour problems at the present time. It contains a series of studies of the different economic phenomena of to-day, describing the gradual evolution of each from the earliest times, with an indication of the probable trend of future developments. The inter-connection of the different conditions so described is well illustrated, and each chapter ends with a brief summary of its subject matter. The accounts of the various stages of food production, of clothing, of housing and of the use of tools contain in a brief and readable form the results of the investigations of the past century, and Part III, “The History of the Evolution of Labour,” will be read with especial interest.

The Perils of Wealth and
Poverty

By CANON S. A. BARNETT,
M.A., D.C.L.

Edited by the Rev. V. A. BOYLE, M.A. With an Introduction by Mrs. S. A. BARNETT, C.B.E.

Cr. 8vo. 2s. 6d. net.

Canon Barnett was so careful a student of social conditions, and so sane an idealist, that this little book (which he was engaged in writing just before his last illness) will be of interest to all who think, and who desire the common welfare.

The Sickness of an Acquisitive
Society

By R. H. TAWNEY
Cr. 8vo. Second Impression 2s. net.

In this booklet the author analyses the causes of the present discontents which are troubling modern society, and traces their origin to the divorce of property rights from social duties.

Co-operation and the Future
of Industry

By LEONARD S. WOOLF
Cr. 8vo. Second Edition 5s. net.

“A book of great immediate and practical importance. Every one who desires industrial reconstruction would do well to master it.”—Herald.

Government and Industry

By C. DELISLE BURNS

Author of “Political Ideals”

Demy 8vo. About 16s. net.

This is a description of the existing relations between British government and the industrial system. The present tendencies are shown to indicate the formation of an organized “economic” community, based upon the State organization but distinct from it. The dominant conception operating in this economic community is that of public service. The theory expressed in the book, however, is subordinated to a description of actual facts—the administrative treatment of labour conditions, unemployment, commerce and finance, which will be found valuable even by those who do not agree with the theory, since the description is the only one which covers contemporary post-war administration.

Problems of a New World

By J. A. HOBSON

Cr. 8vo. 7s. 6d. net.

Events of the last few years have shaken our political and economic systems to their foundations. The old guarantees of order and progress no longer suffice. The problems of 1920 are not those of 1914. Human Nature itself, as an operative force, has changed.

These chapters discuss the revelations and describe the new ideals that are struggling to get themselves realized in the new Industry, the new State, and the new World-Order.

What the Workers Want

A Study in British Labour
By ARTHUR GLEASON

Demy 8vo. About 16s. net.

A record of the aims and achievements of British Labour, the result of five years’ continuous study of Labour conditions. It deals with what the workers want, who the leaders are, what the strikes mean, what the workers have won, and what they seek. There are chapters by Messrs. Smillie, Frank Hodges, C. T. Cramp and others; and the appendix contains all the important documents of the industrial revolution.

FOOTNOTES:

[1] In an article published in Macmillan’s Magazine, December 1887, I dealt with the subject of Moultrie’s Poems.

[2] Article on “Eton as it is,” in the Adventurer, No. 23, by “E. G. R.” (G. C. Macaulay).

[3] Dr. Lyttelton, when Headmaster of Eton, substituted the cane for the birch in the Upper School.

[6] The article, unsigned, appeared in No. 23.

[7] The Adventurer, No. 20.

[8] See the concluding article, “Valete Etonenses,” No. 29.

[9] The incident is a good example of the way in which the real ethics of diet are often overlooked, while stress is laid upon some quite minor and subordinate aspect of it.

[10] I was not aware of these lines having appeared in print, until they were quoted by Sir Edward Cook in his More Literary Recreations, 1919. My version of them is slightly different from his; but I think my recollection is trustworthy.

[11] My Days and Dreams, by Edward Carpenter, 1916.

[12] The two years allowed for vegetarianism have now become forty, and all of them years of hard work.

[13] “Our competitive system of industry is a vestigial institution. It is a survival from the militant ages of the past.... It is a system of cannibalism. Instead of instilling the feeling of brotherhood, it compels us to eat each other.”—Savage Survivals, by J. Howard Moore, 1916.

[14] Since the above was written, Dean Inge has added his name to the illustrious list. Is it not time, by the way, that some one collected the Gloomy Dean’s golden sayings in a volume—under the title of Ingots, perhaps?

[20] The substance of what is here said about Francis Adams is taken from my editorial note to the revised edition of the Songs of the Army of the Night, published by Mr. A. C. Fifield, 1910.

[22] It is significant that the title of Edward Carpenter’s lines to Shelley: “To a Dead Poet,” became, in later editions of Towards Democracy, “To One who is where the Eternal are.”

[23] Sonnet to Shelley, by N. Douglas Deuchar.

[24] From a letter on “Swinburne at Eton,” Times Literary Supplement, December 25, 1919.

[25] The assertion made in Mr. H. M. Hyndman’s Records of an Adventurous Life (1911) that Meredith’s vegetarianism was “almost the death of him,” and that he himself “recognized the truth,” viz. that flesh food is a necessity for those who work with mind as well as body, is directly at variance with what Meredith himself told me twenty years nearer the date of the experiment in question.

[26] Here perhaps I had better say that my own work for the League, though mostly private and anonymous, was continuous during the twenty-nine years of the League’s existence; so that in describing the various aspects of the movement I am writing of what I know. The opinions expressed are, of course, only personal, as in the remarks about the war (Chap. XV).

[34] A Member of Parliament who had charge of a Sports Bill once begged us not to get the Buckhounds abolished, because, as he said, they were the great incentive to vote for the Bill.

[35] See Dickens’s description, Forster’s Life of Dickens, iii. 146.

[36] Some years later I was enabled, by the courtesy of the owner, to visit the top of Kinderscout on a frosty afternoon in December, when it had the appearance of a great snow-clad table-land, intersected by deep ruts, and punctuated here and there by the black masonry of the tors.

[37] I have here incorporated the substance of a letter on “The Preservation of Mountain Scenery” published in The Times, April 28, 1908.

[41] See the address on “War and Sublimation,” given by Dr. L. Jones, in the subsection of Psychology, at the meetings of the British Association, September 11, 1915. In war, he pointed out, impulses were noticed which apparently did not exist in peace, except in the criminal classes. Primitive tendencies never disappeared from existence; they only vanished from view by being repressed and buried in the unconscious mind.

[42] Cf. Mr. Edward Garnett’s Papa’s War, and Other Satires, George Allen & Unwin, Ld., 1918.

[43] “We were told that the war was to end war, but it was not: it did not and it could not.” So said Field-Marshal Sir Henry Wilson, May 18, 1920; at which date it was no longer necessary to keep up the illusion.

[44] If any doubt existed as to the national insensibility caused by the war, it must have been dispelled by the comparative indifference with which the news of the Amritsar massacre—a more terrible atrocity than any for which German commanders were responsible—was received in this country.

[47] I heard a Derbyshire gamekeeper actually quote “Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord,” as if it were an injunction to the righteous to follow the example of a vengeful Deity.
