W. S. LILLY'S WOEKS. 



THE CLAIMS OF CHRISTIANITY. By W. S. Lillv. 



Demy 8vo, 12s. 



The Tivies says :— " Mr. W. S. Lilly is a writer who brings a powerful and subtle 

 intellect trained in speculative inquiries, instinct with the liistorioal spirit, and en- 

 dowed with keen dialectical aptitudes, to the exposition of the claims of the Church 

 ofRoine on the intellectual and spiritual allegiance of mankind. . . . Pew will deny 

 cither the speculative and historical insight or the dialectical skill with which they 

 are advanced." 



ON SHIBBOLETHS. By W. S. Lilly. Demy 8vo, 12s. 



The National Observer says : — " With that unerring touch of his, Mr. Lilly probes 

 the encrustations of ' cant ' surrounding these ideas, and reveals, in that clear, 

 nervous English whereof he is now an acknowledged master, those unshakable 

 pillars of political truth which maintain the social fabric. It is a book to make the 

 reader pause and think ; and, although it deals with the most serious matters, its 

 bracing tone keeps him always on the alert. In a word, it is a book to be pondered 

 as well as read." 



ON RIGHT AND WRONG. By W. S. Lilly. Second 



Edition. Demy 8vo, 12s. 



Tlie Saturday Remew says : — "With characteristic vigour and clearness, he [Mr. 

 Lilly] sets forth the faith that is in him. His outlines of ' Hatlonal Ethics ' define 

 free will as man's distinctive endowment ; morality as the deliberate self -submission 

 to duty, and duty itself as the ethically necessary. He refers moral obligation, not 

 to experience, but to reason, and succinctly describes the rule of ethics as ' the 

 natural and permanent revelation of reason.' " 



A CENTURY OF REVOLUTION. By W. S. Lilly. 



Second Edition, revised and enlarged. Demy 8vo, 12s. 



The Mliaimmn says : — " We repeat our general conclusion that Mr. Lilly's attack 

 on the revolutionary dogmas is an eloquent and a cogent sequence of facts and 

 arguments which those who dissent ftom it are bound to weigh and to answer. . . , 

 This vigorous and timely work." 



CHAPTERS IN EUROPEAN HISTORY. With an In- 



troductory Dialogue on the Philosophy of History. By W. S. 

 Lilly. Two Vols. Demy 8vo, 21s. 



The' Times says : — " These volumes of Mr. Lilly's are delightful reading, whether 

 lie compels our ass.ent to his conclusions or provokes us to doubt and differ from 

 them. For they are full of pregnant and suggestive thoughts ; we might ijmost add 

 of subtly ingenious sophistries. He is always original, and very often brilliant. 

 There are pages of fervidly impassioned eloquence, and passages in which striMng 

 scenes are reproduced with wonderfully realistic dramatic power. We can only 

 repeat that his volumes are charming, while they should be invaluable as an incen- 

 tive to intellectual research.*' ^ 



ANCIENT RELIGION AND MODERN THOUGHT. By 



W. S. Lilly. Third Edition. Demy 8vo, 12s. 



The St. James's Gazette says: — "No intelligent reader will fail to recognize 

 the ability with which Mr. Lilly deals with the great problems he discusses, fle 

 has taken pains to appreciate the full significance of the arguments which can be 

 advanced against his own position ; and in answering them he manifests not only 

 much ingenuity and resource, but intimate acquaintance with the writings of many 

 of the most eminent philosophical writers, both of ancient and of modem times. 

 Ibe results of his thought and research he presents simply and gracefully ; and 

 there is nothing in the form of his statements to which the most vehement of 

 Agnostics could object as either intolerant or unfair."
