Synopsis
Excerpt from The Progress and Prospects of Germany: A Discourse Before the Phi Beta Kappa Society of Brown University, at Providnce, R. I., September, 1, 1847
The reformation of religion and the revival of letters mutually reacted upon each other, as cause and effect, and contributed to accelerate the improvement of the intellectual and moral nature of individual man, as well as the general happiness of society. Coinciding with the discovery of the American world by Columbus and Cabot, and its colonization by the Latin and Teutonic nations of Europe, the art of printing, the revival of letters, and the reformation of religion, combine with triple force, to mark an eventful epoch in the history of our race since which, its progress, though not always regular and by equal steps, has been constant during the three centuries which have elapsed, and enables us, from the elevation on which we are now placed, to look forth upon the promised land, and to cheer our posterity in their onward march towards that perfection which ought ever to be kept in view, as the ultimate, though unattainable aim of humanity.
