THE 

 GROWTH OF MODERN NATIONS. 



B 1bi£itorB of tbc iparticulari^t jform of Society. 



Translated from the French of HENRI de TOURVILLE 

 by M. G. LOCH. 



Demy Svo. 12s. 6d. net. 



The articles which are here presented in the form of a volume 

 were contributed by the author to the French periodical La Science 

 Sociale over a period of six years ending in February, 1903. His 

 •death occurred within a few days of his completing the work. 

 M. de Tourville, after showing that the transformation of the 

 ■communal into the particularist family took place in Scandinavia, 

 and was largely due to the peculiar geographical character of the 

 Western slope, traces the development of modern Europe from the 

 action of the particularist type of society upon the fabric of Roman 

 •civilization. 



OUT OF CHAOS. 



H personal Stor^ of tbc TRcvolution in IRussia. 



By PRINCE MICHAEL TRUBETZKOI. 



Crown Svo. 6s. 



Succeeding at the age of twenty-three to considerable position and 

 •wealth. Prince Trubetzkoi was early impressed by the desperate 

 <;ondition of the Russian lower classes, and began to interest himself 

 in schemes of reform. He quickly discovered that open methods 

 had no chance of success, and it was not long before an experience 

 of prison and exile led him to abandon his social career and fling 

 himself with all his heart into the arms of the re\olutionary party. 

 Throughout his unceasing straggles on behalf of liberty Prince 

 Trubetzkoi has ever held up the ideal of Peaceful Regeneration as 

 the result of education and self-sacrifice, and has opposed the anar- 

 chical violence which can only impede the cause of reform. His book, 

 which is a nightmare of spies and passports, of underground printing 

 presses and smuggled literature, of hideous anxieties and hairbreadth 

 escapes, gives a lurid picture of modern Russia from the reformer's 

 point of view.
