HISTORY, BIOGRAPHY, 6- TRAVELS. 9 Freeman (E. A.)—continued. HISTORY OF THE CATHEDRAL CHURCH OF WELLS, as illustrating the History of the Cathedral Churches of the Old Foundation. Crown 8vo. 3-f. 6d. * I have here” the author says, “ tried to treat the history of the Church of Wells as a contribution to the general history of the Church and Kingdom of England, and specially to the history of Cathedral Churches of the Old Foundation. ... I wish to point out the general principles of the original founders as the model to which the Old Foun- dations should be brought back, and the New Foundations reformed after their pattern.” “ The history assumes in Mr. Freeman? s hands a signi- ficance, and, we may add, a practical value as suggestive of what a cathe- dral ought to be, which make it well worthy of mention.”—Spectator. HISTORICAL ESSAYS. Second Edition. 8vo. ioj. 6d. The principle on which these Essays have been chosen is that of selecting papers which refer to comparatively modern times, or, at least, to the existing states and nations of Europe. By a sort of accident a number of the pieces chosen have thrown themselves into something like a continuous series bearing on the historical causes of the great events op 1870—71. Notes have been added whenever they seemed to be called for ; and whenever he could gain in accuracy of statement or in force or clear- ness of expression, the author has freely changed, added to, or left out, what he originally wrote. To many of the Essays has been added a short note of the circumstances under which they were written. It is needless to say that any product of Mr. Freeman's pen is worthy of attentive perusal; a7id it is believed that the contents of this volume will throw light on several subjects op great historical i?nportance and the widest interest. The following is a list op the subjects:—I. The Mythical and Romantic Elements in Early English History; 2. The Continuity of English History ; 3. The Relations between the Crowns of England and Scotland ; 4. Saint Thomas of Canterbury and his Biographers; 5- The Reign op Edward the Third; 6. The Holy Roman Empire; 7. The Franks and the Gauls ; 8. The Early Sieges of Paris ; 9. Frederick the First, King of Italy ; 10. The Emperor Frederick the Second ; 11. Charles the Bold; 12. Presidential Government. “He never touches a question without adding to our comprehension of it, without leaving the impression of an ample knowledge, a righteous purpose, a clear and powerful under- standing. ”—Saturday Review. A Second Series of Historical Essays in the Press.
