Fogazzaro, A. Daniele Cortis; a novel, tr. by Mrs. I. R. Tilton.

"A work which has attracted a good deal of attention in Italy, and one which should have a great interest also for English readers, not only from the intrinsic power and ability of the writing, but also from the picture it presents to us of life and society." - Spectator, Sept. 26, 1885.

"Striking romance. Daniele Cortis is the most widely read novel of the year in Italy. A vivid, impetuous tale of modern life, full of actuality, and touching on the religious and political problems now troubling the minds of all earnest Italians. It moves with dramatic vigor, contains many pathetic scenes, much realistic dialogue, and frequent descriptive touches. It has been keenly discussed in Italy; some acute critics praise it to the skies, others condemn it, and dwelling on certain ob vious faults of style and construction, assert that its success is due to its religious tone. Meanwhile every one reads it and every literary expert has something to say of it." Linda Villari in the Academy, Jan. 26, 1886.

"The tale is singularly complicated. It is not the story of a nation; the unity which it has is artificial, created by conquest, and kept up by Greek or rather Hellenistic culture.

"At a time when so much discussion is going on in regard to the proprietorship of land, and the condition of those who till it, the last publication of the Camden Society, namely, Custumals of Battle Abbey,' will be found of special use. The manorial system does not appear from its pages to have been otherwise than a fair and equitable arrangement between capital and labor.” Church rev., May.

Blache, N. La besogne de Peymarlier.

"The work attracted much attention while it was ap pearing in the Nouvelle revue,' and in a number of Belgian and Hungarian journals. The name of a journalist which is taken for the title has been applied in France by political spite to a great journalist-politician who now holds high office, but we are certain that M. Blache had no Parisian and no Opportunist' real persons in view. M. Blache, who is president of the council general of a Southern department, draws in his book a picture of Barjols, le Tivoli de Provence'; and if M. Peymarlier is real we should be inclined to look for him not in Paris; but in the office of Le progrès du Var." - Athenæum, June 11.
