Excerpt from Lecture on National Character, Delivered at the Jamaica Lyceum, L. I., April 25th, 1843The Gothic ages lasted for a thousand years, during which, nations were without character, and a dreary night of ignorance and barbarism prevailed in the world. Two men, however, whose enlightened views were far in ad vance of their times, and whose achievements bear the stamp of gigantic power and commanding genius, appeared in Europe to illumine this age of barbarism. The light of their talents and services re¿ected increased lustre on their character, emanating, as it did, from surrounding darkness, and their names long stood prominent as beacon-lights for their own and for succeeding ages.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
