W. W. STRICKLAND
The Smuggler’s Dog
and other Essays
in Literature and Science
The title-sketch of this volume is a pathetic story of life on the Italo-Swiss frontier, and won the approval of so good a judge as the late Bishop of Durham, Dr. Westcott. The remaining essays are wide in their range in literature, science, religion, and politics, including amongst others: “A New Theory about Shakespeare”; a satirical essay, “On Some Moral and Literary Beauties of the British Hymnal”, “Food and Morals”, “The Limits of Applied Science”, “World Empire without War”, “The Extinction of Mankind” and a striking sketch entitled “The Convent of the Abruzzi”.

This volume comprises a translation of Karel Erben’s collection of popular Slavonic Fairy Stories. Mr. Strickland has added illustrative diagrams, tables, and supplementary notes, essays, and introductions, in which he explains and develops the theory that these fairy stories have been derived from an Arctic annual myth.
