"Chesterton--TheWriterandtheMan

"Agreatpoet,andagreatman:the mostintelligentofEnglishwriters,the keenestwit."This,inreferenceto Chesterton,isreportedtohavebeen saidbyDr:,Feuc.htwanger,authorof "JewSuss,"inaninterviewwithLeonardCrocombe.Theappreciationis allthemorepleasantwhenitisrealisedthatitistardy-Englishmen,as ever,havebeenslowtorecognise geniusintheirmidst.Thatitis well-merited,fewwilldeny:andeven thesefew,howeverprejudicedand fanatical,mustbewonoverinasurveyoftheman'slifeandworks.

GilbertKeithChestertonbeganhis careerasajournalistofasortin FleetStreet,London.Thesewerethe dayswhenFabianSocialismwasfast becomingtheliterarycult,butonlyso amongstmenwhohadweariedofthe artificialitiesofWildeandWhistler. Themanwiththeglitteringepigram andbonmothad,however,notyet beenoustedfromhispositionaslion oftheliterarytables.Anartificial reticenceofspeech,atonceinimical tomotivesofhumansympathyand trueartisticexpression,wastheprevailingnote.Inaword,theliterary lifeoflateVictorianEnglandwas franklydecadent.Itwasagainstthis fashionthatChestertonlauncheda vigorouscampaign.GeorgeBernard Shaw-atthistimeahard-working dramaticcritic-hadalsoenteredthe listsagainstDecadence,butfromdifferentmotives.Pessimismstankin Shaw'scleanlynostrils,butmoreso inChesterton's.Shawhatedit,because,initsessence,itrepudiatedhis petideasonthesteadyadvanceof civilisation.Totheliteraryevangelist,withProgressashisgospel,this doctrineofDecadencewasasared ragtoabull;itarousedinhimallthe coldfuryoftheCaivinist.ButChesterton'shatredofthedoctrinehad deeperroots;itsessentialfutilityand immorality,tohismind,condemnedit straightway.Inhiswritingsofthis time,wefindhimstriking,nowand again,thepurelyCatholicnote.He wasfulloftheMiddleAges-that greatperiodinthelifeoftheChurch whenthecraftsmanwasamemberof Guildofemployersandemployed, andwhenscholarshipinthehandsof themonasterieswasmadenoblerand richerthanithadeverbeen.The Church'sconceptionof'Woman, throughtheages,asachildofone DivineMother,heupheld,intheface ofthecriticswhoclaimedthatt&y hadfoundtheirtruewomaninIbsen's "Nora."Itwasnotaveryfarcry, itcouldeasilybeseen,fromtheChestertonof1900totheChestertonof 1922.Theroadwaslongandrugged.

Forpracticalpurposes,Chesterton's philosophicalcareermayberudely treatedundertwoheadings.First,as anOptimist;secondly,asaDistributist.Itmustnotbeforgottenthat "Optimism,"asappliedtohisphilosophy,hasawidermeaningthatthe merewordmightconvey.Hisoptimismisavitalpartofhisnature.As ,aromantic,heisanoptimist.Asa humorist,heisanoptimist.Hisin. fluenceineachspheremaytherefore befittinglyincludedinhisgeneralinfluenceasanOptimist.

In1922ChestertonbecameaCatholic.Theannouncementofhisconversionwasreceivedwithoutsurprise, :ishisleaningstowardsCatholicism hadalwaysbeenmarked.IncharacteristicfashionhesettoworkandproducedhisadmirableexpositionofCatholicDogma,asagainstProtestant teachingandtheTheoryofEvolution, viz.,"TheEverlastingMan."Chestertonhasexcelledhimselfinthiswork.

Chesterton'sdislikeofShawpartly proceedsfromthelatter'sstudieddisbeliefinRomance.ToShaw'smind, waswashorribleandunnecessary,and noromancecouldeverbeattachedto it.Love,farfrombeingallromance, asaveryseriousbusiness.Shaw couldneverseeanybeautyineither aCrusadeoramilitarypageant.Both inhisopinion,weredesignedtoset youngmindsafirewithawholly wrong-headedardour.TheadventuresofDonQuixotemightamuse him,butnotsotheadventuresof BayardandGeoffreydeBouillon.In thesameway,ShawwouldstripLove ofallitsglamour,untilitdegenerated intomerehusband-hunting,withWomanasthePursuer,andManasthe Pursued.Theinspirationofpoetsfor centurieswouldnolongerbeaninspiration;itwouldbeadry-as-dust psychologicalfact.Thishardmaterialisticattitudewascalculatedtobe 'utterlyrepellenttoamindofChesterton'stimbre.Forthelatter,unlike Shaw,didnotgrowtomanhoodsuddenly.Thecruditiesoftheworld couldnothardenanaturewhichhad thebuoyancyandnaturalnessofthe schoolboy.

OnthefirstHolyThursday,Our LordofferedupthefirstMass.Op thisnightalso,Heordainedthefirst priestsandconsecratedthefirstbishops."Dothisforacommemorationof Me."(Luc.22.19).

OnthefirstGoodFriday,Jesusgave HislifefortheRedemptionofthe world.TheMass,whichisofferedin ourchurchesto-day,istheself-same SacrificeasJesusofferedonMount Calvary.Themannerofofferingis different,buttheSacrificeisoneand thesame.Thismayseemdifficultof understanding,butanexamplewill makeitclear.Apersonmaysleepat night,workinthemorning,andeatin theevening.Itisoneandthesame personwhosleepsworks,andeats, andhisactionsareonlydifferent modesofhispersonality.Ifitis furtherobjectedthatOurLord's DeathonCalvarytookplacetwothousandyear'sago.andthatitisdifficulttounderstandhowtheMassofferedto-dayisthesameasOurLord's Death,itmaybeansweredthatthe Sacrificeineachcaseisthesame,but themannerofofferingisdifferent. -ThisisMyBodyWhichisgivenfor you.ThisistheChalicetheNew TestamentinMyBloodWhichshall lieshedforyou."(Luc.22.,19..20). Awarriormaydrivetheenemyfrom hiscountry,andmaketreatywithhis adversary,guaranteeingthatthelatter wouldneveragaininvadetheterritory.Thedocumentwouldbesigned andsealed.andwouldlastforall time,andwouldevenbindtheilsuccessors.DuplicatesofthisdorcMiklent mighthemade.andmightbegi,itinto allthechiefmeninthecollihtry.

At\theMass,ourprayersandour goodwillareaspowerfulasthoseof thegoodthief,orofthosewhostood roundtheCross.But,apparently, veryfewrealisethepoweroftheMass, otherwiseourchurcheswouldbe crowded,andmanymorewouldreach salvation.OnCalvary,onlyafew prayed.OurLadyprayedforthose roundtheCross,andprobably,her prayersobtainedtheconversionofthe centurionandofmanyothers,onthat day.AtMass.wehavethesameopportunityasOurLadyhadofobtainingtheconversionofsinners,byofferingthePreciousBloodforthatintention.

Ifwehaveanydoubtsaboutthe efficiencyoftheMasstoobtaingrace, letusreflectonwhattakesplaceat theessentialpartsoftheSacrifice.The priest,atthemomentofSacrifice, offersallthesufferingsofJesus;and OurLordHimselfpleadsforus,with HisOpenWounds,HisParchedTongue,HisDesolationofSpirit,andHis UnspeakableLoveforsouls.When weofferourpetitionsatMass,they arepresentedtoourHeavenlyFather withalltheefficacyoftheDeathof JesusontheCross.Thismeansthat, oneprayerofferedatMass,isworth hundredsofprayersofferedatother times.Somesaythattheycanpray aswellathomeasatMass.Yes,they mayprayaswell,butnotwiththe sameefficiacy.Couldonepennypurchaseasmuchasathousandpounds? Thepennyisgoodasfarasitgoes,but itbecomesofverylittleaccountwhen comparedwiththethousandpound note.Ourprayersathomearegood buttheyareofsmallvaluewhencomparedwiththoseofferedduringMass.
