"Modernism." The Jowett Lectures, 1908. ,
By Paul Sabatier, author of "The Life
of St. Francis of Assisi" Translated
by C. A. Miles. With a Preface, Notes,
and Appendices. Pp. 351. Cloth, $1.25
net. New> York: Charles Scribner's
Sons. 1908.
These are very able lectures, but hardly
satisfactory to one who desires to know
just what "Modernism" is and in wh.at
senses the word is understood in the Roman
Catholic Church, where it has figured
so much of late. The lecturer takes
too much for granted to make what he
says luminous or instructive. He presupposes
great intimacy with M. Loisy's
writings and position. He is careful,
however, to maintain that "Modernism"
is not a phase of Protestantism. It is
"neither a party nor a school, but an orientation."
He tries to argue a place for
.authority even alongside a system of
study and interpretation has for its basic
principle the rejection of authority. He
resolves Modernism into a "form of an
intense need for communion?communion
with the past by exegetical and historical
study, communion with the present
by a new apologetic and by democratic
ende?<vnd oM&saunion with the
future whir,*! are striving to prepare."
In all of whi?h is more rhetoric
than definition.

God's children are to inherit all His illimitable
kingdom, from heaven as a metropolis,
exploring and enjoying them at
will." This is a lofty, perhaps daring
theme. However far he finds the veil
lifted in the Scriptures, and a basis of
truth revealed for his anticipation, it will
be a sincere pleasure and an inspiration
