Published posthumously in 1904, this collection of essays, taken largely from Butler’s work published in The Universal Review in 1890, covers a wide range of subject matter—reflective of Butler’s diverse interests. Included among the essays are “Ramblings in Cheapside, ” “Thought and Language, ” and “The Deadlock in Darwinism, ” which is a summary of Butler’s views attacking Darwinism.
Circa l’autore
Samuel Butler (1835-1902) was an English novelist, essayist, and critic. He wrote on Christian orthodoxy, evolutionary thought, and Italian art. He is best known for Erewhon (1872) and The Way of All Flesh (1903), a semiautobiographical novel, which, with ferocious wit and palpable anger, skewers the pernicious effects of religious hypocrisy.
