There are some rattling good descriptions of fights in the book, notable among them being those between Frank Slavin and Peter Jackson, Fred Welsh and Willie Ritchie, and the dramatic contests associated with the name of Carpentier. NIETZSCHE AND THE IDEALS OF MODERN GERMANY. By HERBERT LESLIE STEWART, M.A., D.PH., PROFESSOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN DALHOUSIE UNIVERSITY, HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA; FORMALLY JOHN LOCKE SCHOLAR IN THE UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD; LATE JUNIOR FELLOW IN THE ROYAL UNIVERSITY OF IRELAND. AUTHOR OF “QUESTIONS OF THE DAY IN PHILOSOPHY AND PSYCHOLOGY.” _One Volume. Demy 8vo. Cloth._ =7s. 6d. net.= This volume is confined to those aspects of Nietzsche’s work which throw light upon the social policy and ideals of Germany as revealed in the present war. It is an effort to assist those who wish to correlate the moral outlook of Germany with one personal influence by which, beyond doubt, it has been in part directed; and for those who believe that Nietzsche, properly understood, has been a force making for cosmopolitan peace, the author sets forth in detail the grounds upon which he believes the opposite. One key to the enigma of Germany is to be found in a sinister aberration of thought on ethical questions, especially on the issues of international conduct. Nietzsche was one representative of this phase of thought: that he “made the war” would be a grotesque overstatement; but that he enforced with singular effectiveness just those doctrines of immoralism which Prussia has put into execution this book endeavours to show. He is taken, not as the originator of a policy, but as typical of a mood which has had fearful consequences for mankind. MODERN ESSAYS REPRINTED FROM LEADING ARTICLES IN “THE TIMES.” With an Introduction by DR. J. W. MACKAIL, F.R.S.L. _Crown 8vo. Cloth._ =5s. net.= This volume contains a selection from the charming series of Essays which have formed such a prominent feature among the Leading Articles in _The Times_ during the last year or two. They present admirable examples of modern English style, and deal with themes, round which the thought of all ages of literature has sparkled, in the spirit of the twentieth century. Inimitable as are the Essays of Bacon, Addison or Steele, it cannot be denied that the lapse of time has inevitably drawn a line between the intellectual atmosphere in which those famous authors moved, and the current of modern thought. The same problems are with us to-day, but their appeal to us is made under new conditions; these Essays respond to an ever-present need for the wisdom of ages, but arrayed in the guise of 1915.
