Appendix contains "Papers read by Sidgwick to the Synthetic Society,"
and a "List of Flenry Sidgwick's published writings."
The memoir of Henry Sidgwick [1838-1900J is a labor of love by the
brother and the widow of the late professor of moral philosophy in
Cambridge University. To many persons, ail over the civilized world,
his name will recall the work of one of the most profound and
suggestive philosophers of our time, the author of treatises on ethics,
economics and politics, prominent in the cause of university reform,
of the higher education of women, and of psychical research. To a
smaller number, chiefly in England, he will be remembered as the
keenest, liveliest, most accurate and most candid of talkers. From
a smaller number still, this memoir chiefly composed of his own letters
will draw out not painful tears in memory of a heart as warm as his
head was strong, a sweetness as irresistible as his intellect, and an
elevation of soul that never tottered under the hardest questions of
life. Condensed from review by William Everett in Atlantic monthly,
1906.
