Book Description
Excerpt from The Nineteenth Century, Vol. 36: A Monthly Review; July-December, 1894 This general satisfaction with exactly what exists at the date of signature, coupled with total inability to adopt any step ever so little in advance, irresistibly reminds me of the occasion on which a number of conservative-minded ladies (among whom I was numbered) pub lished in this very Review a protest against the alarming progress of women's sufl'rage. The authors of the protest screwed up courage to approve of precisely the amount of women's rights that then actually existed, including the sitting of women on County Councils. But whilst the proof was being circulated for signatures a legal decision excluded women from the latter sphere; whereupon we promptly withdrew our previous approval of the innovation A fellow-feelin g makes me wonder whether, if Mr. Asquith had been driven to further emasculate his own Factory Bill, and if Mr. Mun della had drapped his Arbitration Bill, the Duke of Devonshire and his colleagues would not have repeated our pretty manceuvre to be abreast, 'yet no whit in front, of the times, and cut out even their tiny residuum of positive recommendations.

The Rise and Decline of Anglican Idealism in the Nineteenth Century
Author: T. Gouldstone
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 0230000738
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
Scientific and historical studies in the Nineteenth-century challenged Christian believers to restate their faith in ways which took account of new knowledge. An example of this is the influence of philosophical idealism on a generation of writers and theologians, principally centred around the University of Oxford. However, these optimistic and socially-privileged men and women failed to come to terms with the mass movements and rapid changes in fin-de-siècle England. The Church moved out of touch with national life and is reaping the consequences today.
