Notes
The first appearance in English of this wide-ranging work exemplifying the author's 'curious ethic-politico-theological creed—a mixture of sentimentalism, communism, and anti-sacerdotalism, supported by the most eccentric arguments, but urged with a great deal of eloquence' (Ency. Brit. 11th edn).
