Mr. Fifield's New List 



The Presence of the Kindly 



.Patriarch. By Raymond Taunton. Boards, zs. net, postage 3d. 



"Its plain, lively, and naturalistic narrative takes one to an English village, 

 and there persuasively brings in a queer, supernatural sort of wandering Jew 

 with a blessing instead of a curse. The tale is interesting, serious, and 

 pleasing." — Scotsman. "Written with . . . insight and humour." — Athenaum. 



The Plays of Brieux. By p. v. Thomas, 



m.a., Assistant in French at University College, London. 112 pp. 

 Cr. 8t>o, wrappers, zs. net, postage id. 



Brieux has been called almost everything from " an apostle " to 

 "the French Shaw." This study without attempting to give 

 him a name, and without intruding too much criticism, aims 

 above all at giving a straightforward chronological summary of 

 the man's work by means of analysis of the plays from Bernard 

 Palissy to Suzette, and quotations from the original texts, with a 

 brief account of his career. [Just Published. 



The Little Wicket Gate : An e x - 



perience Ex Nihilo. By Algernon Petworth. 256//., cloth gilt, 

 gilt top, 6s. 



The Little Wicket Gate leads to a finely imagined idealistic Utopia, 

 — or perhaps it is a picture of life after death. The problem of 

 love is present, but free from the factors of wealth and rank 

 commonly involved in romance. The story will attract and 

 interest many as greatly as it will repel others. The writer is 

 known ; the author is not. [Just Published. 



The Further Evolution of Man. 



A Study from Observed Phenomena. By W. Hall Calvert, m.d. 

 Cr. Svo, 328 //., cloth gilt, 5/. net, postage \d. 



In its ten chapters this book treats of " The Cannibal Habit in 

 the Male " and the " Law of Population " as modifying to a large 

 extent the struggle for existence, and so removing the horror of an 

 inevitable and perpetual conflict, and it then discusses the " Lesson 

 of History," " The Spiritual Evolution of Society," « The Ideal 

 State," and " The Final Goal." [Just Published.
