Romain Rolland and the rejection of pacifism
Though well known as an opponent of the 19141918 war, Romain Rolland resisted the appellation of pacifist. This was largely on account on his high valuation of faith and his recognition of the inevitability of conflict among men of differing faiths. In 1914, he accepted that nationalism had been among the faiths that his pre-war works had encouraged, and his wartime writing attempted not to stop the war but to humanize its conduct. Between the wa…
Transcendental Utopias
New England Transcendentalism was a vibrant and many-sided movement whose members are probably best remembered for their utopian experiments, their attempts to reconcile the contingent world of history with what they perceived as the stable and patterned world of nature. Richard Francis has written the first book to explore in detail the ideological basis of the three famous experiments during the 1840s: Brook Farm, Fruitlands, and Henry David Th…
Métafictions (1670–1730)
By Jean-Paul Sermain. (Les Dix-huitième Siècles, 65). Paris, Champion, 2002. 462 pp. The period of fictional history covered by this study, like the contemporary Hazardian ‘crise de conscience’, is one of flux and uncertainty. Between the collapse of the baroque novel and the generation of Prévost and Marivaux, a bewildering variety of genres struggle to emerge, and Jean-Paul Sermain's merit is to have traced a unity behind this fermentation in t…

Lacking, too, are normative considerations of the impact of electronic advocacy on pluralistic democracy. High-tech lobbying tools are expensive, and lobbying strategies based on these models are not equally available to all groups. Given the costs of electronic advocacy, we address whether…

Emily Dickinson
Circumstances and Salvation
Archangel in the Pleached Garden
In April of 1846, in Elizabeth Peabody's bookstore in Boston, Emerson discovered and purchased the two volume German translation of the Divan of the Persian poet, Hafiz. Emerson, with his rudimentary German, was attracted both by the exotic subject matter and by the poet's treatment of it, which was at once highly intellectual and highly sensual. This work of the Near East does not seem to constitute a direct source for Emerson's own poems (even …
