The Rights of Women by Anthony Trollope 1862
Просмотров 104Год назад
We all know that the subject which appears above as the title of this chapter is a very favourite subject in America. It is, I hope, a very favourite subject in England also, and I am inclined to think has been so for many years past. The rights of women, as contradistinguished from the wrongs of women, has perhaps been the most precious of the legacies left to us by the feudal ages. How amidst...

Rabbi Ben Ezra by Robert Browning 1812-1889
Montaigne’s faith is so confusing. But I understand there is heavy bias behind his culture for certainty’s. So I give him the benefit of the doubt for that.
thanks for the comment. Montaigne wrote very many essays.
Esteban de Durantes is an equally, if not more, fascinating member of the party.

Absolutely beautiful. Great reading.
Thanks Wizard.
This makes so much sense 😊
By stating this as a "bill" is misleading since the bill was rectified by by congress by a 2/3 majority over the veto of then President Johnson.
Well that's news. I thought it passed and was law. Thanks.
@@craigcampbell4910 It is law...congress made sure of it...
@@ahayahshouse5344 Why would one of Lincoln's successors veto the bill?
@@craigcampbell4910 Because his vice President was a stanch racist who didn't believe in equity and wish to maintain the status quo...

That was a great dissent; very clear, and you can tell he followed the Constitution.
Wonderful reading. Thank you for this.
Sorry woman monosyllabic get it off.
If Meslier is on one extreme and Hobbes on the other, Montesquieu is surely in the middle. Brilliant man.
From 10,000 BCE until about 1750 AD, world human population hovered between 100 million and 500 million. Suddenly, in the years before this essay, written in 1798, it began to creep up in an exponential fashion. Using math and the burgeoning sciences of the era along with critical thinking, Malthus tried to fashion a description of what was happening and predict, given the knowledge of the times, what might happen in the future. I read this in 1963 at age 13 but it deserves another look as I enter my final years.
It's pronounced preh fuss NOT pree face.
