“Mr Pearsall Smith explains in his preface that this book owes its genesis to his habit of copying out such passages as particularly interested him in the writings of Santayana. He came to see, however, that these extracts ‘ were bound up with, and dependent upon, a definite philosophy, a rational conception of the world and man ’ s allotted place in it, which gave them a unity of interest and an importance far beyond that of any mere utterances of miscellaneous appreciation any mere “adventures of the soul.”’ He therefore persuaded Mr Santayana to arrange these extracts in such a way as to preserve their original connection as far as possible.” Ath

SARETT, LEW R. Many many moons; a book of wilderness poems. *$1.50 Holt 811
20–6453
Of these poems on Indian themes the author says that they “ are in no sense literal translations of original utterances of aboriginal song and council-talk; they are, rather, very free, broad interpretations ... in the light of Indian symbolism and mysticism, of the mythology
and superstition involved, and of the attendant ceremonies.” (Preface) This is especially true of Parts I and III of the poems, and an appendix of expository comments has been added to make them clearer to the reader. Part II consists of nature poems giving the atmosphere of the Indian’s environment. The book has an introduction by Carl Sandburg and the three parts are: Flying moccasins; Lone fires; Chippewa monologues.
“A book of beautiful, rugged verse. ”
Booklist 16:306 Je ’20
“Mr Sarett makes one understand the Indian. We understand the Indian in relation to his thoughts, moods, his customs, his legends, his symbolism, his natural mysticism. With the poet’s full equipment, he has psychologically become an Indian and thus his interpreter to the outside world. ‘Many many moons ’ is a remarkable book!” W: S. Braithwaite

Marcelle was a typist in a London office. Her beauty attracted her employer and his charming personality easily persuaded the inexperienced girl that she loved him; also since he was married to a much older woman who would not hear of divorce that it was right for her to go away with him to India. The monotony of the life there soon palled on David and he is glad, eventually, of the summons back to England. Marcelle, left behind, suffers untold miseries and excruciating experiences, and is finally rescued by the one friend who has stood by her from the first and who takes her home as his wife. The interesting feature of the story is its description of life in India.

20–692
The author chose the winter of 1917–1918, while the Bolshevik revolution was in progress, for a study of the Russian theatre. It was a time when the theatre had not significantly survived either in England or France or even in neutral New York and war had revealed it as being only too clearly a luxury, a pastime and an industry. But the Russian theatre is one of profound introspection and inspiration. “Out of their sorrows the Russians have builded all their art. And in the days of their profoundest gloom, they return to it for the consolation which nothing else affords.” In Moscow and Petrograd, the author testifies, the modern theatre has been carried to its finest achievement. Among the contents are: Plays within a play; The world’s first theatre; The plays of Tchehoff at the Art theatre; From Turgenieff to Gorky at the Art theatre; The Russian ballet in its own home; The deeper roots of the Russian theatre; The Kamerny, a theatre of revolt; Meyerhold and the theatre theatrical; Yevreynoff and monodrama; Russian theories of the theatre.

“The book is really a pamphlet masquerading as a novel, and it offers an analysis of the state of mind and fundamental character of the large German element in the United States, and also a vision of the ideal of American democracy as it appears to a thoroughly unEnglish observer. Her hero is presented as a personification of acquired Americanism. The son of a Prussian-American father and a Nihilist Russian princess, he is conceived as a synthesis. Brought up in a wholly German environment (Hoboken is thinly disguised as
Anasquoit), the boy aspires to become a ‘real American.’ Curiously enough, and yet convincingly, he gets the strongest stimulus toward Americanism from a young Englishman. The war disillusions him as to German kultur, and he concludes that the only way out for those of German blood who truly aspire to Americanism is to ‘ go and fight Germany.’” Review

SCHINZ, ALBERT. French literature of the great war. *$3 (2c) Appleton 840.9
20–8608
The author distinguishes three periods in the war literature of France between 1914 and 1918. “The first was one of spontaneous, sudden and strongly emotional reaction, following immediately the first bewildering shock; the second, one of documentation on the causes of the war and on the war itself; and the third, a period of calm philosophical consideration of all that was involved in the gigantic struggle.” (Introd.) Although the lyric and satirical note predominated in the first period, memoir literature in the second, and philosophical essays and treatises in the third, no period can be said to have produced one type of literature to the exclusion of all others. The contents of the book fall into two parts, part 1 discussing in successive chapters the three periods and part 2 containing: Poetry of the war; The stage and the war; War-time fiction; Epilogue.
The appendices contain a bibliography; documents relative to the war; and a catalogue, in alphabetical order, of some of the best war diaries and recollections. There is an index.

“The French literature of the late war is very adequately discussed by Professor Schinz. The chief defect of his treatise is a tinge of partisan feeling, somewhat out of place in work of this kind, and his attack of Romain Rolland is hardly just.” C. K. H.

“The scholarly orderliness and completeness of Mr Albert Schinz’s ‘French literature in the great war ’ contrast glaringly with its temper. He prefers polemics to poetry. Instead of writing the history of a literary movement which is memorable even if not great, he still is battering the Teutonic hordes with the familiar accumulation of civilian energy unspent on any other field.”

“He is quite prodigiously well read in French war literature. But unhappily there is hardly any criticism in the book, nothing profound, nothing illuminating, nothing very thoughtful even except for a few passages and none of those fortunate phrases by which the real critic ‘gets at’ the significance, the vitals, so to speak, of the work he is discussing.”

For descriptive note see Annual for 1919.
“Dr Schleiter has given us a critique of method which not only challenges modern methods and theories but deliberately drives them all from the field, some more gently than others.... As a preparation for a methodology a destruction of methods to make way for method—Dr Schleiter’s work deserves the serious attention of all workers in the field of origins, social and religious, and may well be the most significant work of recent years. ” A.

“On page after page the false assumptions, the blundering reasoning, and the erroneous conclusions that have hitherto characterized comparative religion are laid bare with a detachment of judgment and a wealth of erudition that make the book a model of criticism. Dr Schleiter has put out of action a good many of the heavy guns that were to batter the walls of the citadel of religion.”

“Dr Schleiter, though an acute critic, is not a lucid writer, and his work is critical rather than constructive.”

“He deserves special credit for rescuing from obscurity the principle of convergence, i.e., the doctrine that like cultural results may evolve from unlike antecedents. However, it is the more original treatment of casuality that not only arrests attention but makes one hunger for more. ” R. H. L.

“The book is a signal illustration of two characteristic features of American thought the tendency to concentrate on what authorities have written about a subject rather than on the subject itself, and the neglect to cultivate any grace or clarity of literary style.”

SCHOFIELD, ALFRED TAYLOR. Modern
spiritism. pa *$1.25 Blakiston 134
“Dr Schofield, a student for over thirty years of psychological problems, and a rather copious writer upon them, especially from the medical point of view, gives an instructive review of the history of spiritism, and of its modern developments, and discusses, with many examples from his own experience and with an open mind, the strange phenomena of ‘possession,’ ‘second sight,’ etc. His own position is that, while the facts of spiritism cannot all be explained by purely human agencies, communications with ‘spirits’ are certainly not with the disembodied spirits of the dead. He regards spiritism as practised today to be full of the gravest dangers, mental and spiritual, and to be definitely anti-Christian.” The Times [London] Lit Sup

“This is primarily a discussion of the authorship of the metrical fifteenth century life of the Scottish patriot (d. 1305), which is ascribed to ‘Blind Harry.’ Mr Schofield contends that ‘Blind Harry’ is a pseudonym, and that the biographer was no quiet scholar or amiable ecclesiastic like Barbour, but ‘ a vigorous propagandist, a ferocious realpolitiker without principle when it was a question of Scotland’s place in the sun. ’ The writer diverges from this problem to chapters on ‘Blind Harry and blind Homer,’ and on Conceptions of poesy which occupy the last two chapters.”—The Times [London] Lit Sup
