The Social Ideals of Alfred Tenny- 
son as Related to His Time 
By WILLIAM C. GORDON 
Et is rare that two departments of study are combined so cleverly and proftt- 
ably as literature and sociology are combined here. The reader sees at 
once that Mr. Gordon is quite at home in both fields. He reads his Tennyson 
with the discriminating sympathy and sure understanding of a scholar, and 
he handles the sociological categories with practiced ease. In a witty and orig 
nal chapter he defends the legitimacy of his attempt to employ literature asa 
corpus vile for science, and few would care to deny the right to one who himself 
possessés so pithy a style. The book will be of equal interest to sociologists 
and to students of literature.

Lodowick Carliell 
By CHARLES H. GRAY 
Assistant Professor of English in the University of Kansas 
HE author presents in a single volume an exposition of the life and 
of a dramatist heretofore little known. Lodowick Carliell was 4 sae 
and playwright of the time of the Stuarts, and flourished during deo 
Charles I. He wrote eight plays, which are of a peculiar nature and ay 
as a type as well as individually. One of them, Zhe Deserving Favou I 
reprinted from the original edition of 1629, with no changes exc ine 
pleasing typographical form. This play, with a summary ene — oat 
sion of each of the others, gives an adequate idea of their authors se 
Style. His biography is written at some length. As the plays have ee as 4 
reprinted since the lifetime of their author, and have never been sci err 
whole, and as Carliell’s biography has not been written until now, this ¥ 
affords new matter in the history of the English drama. 
“This is an interesting contribution to the history of the English —— 
Gray furnishes a full and interesting account of Carliell’s life, and an outline 0 
play-writer.”—Oxtlook,
