Description
GKC in this 1913 essay stresses that literature has broken the Victorian compromise which denied, thanks also to the moral shield offered by utilitarianism, the existence of a widespread social malaise in England in the second industrial revolution. The great writers-Dickens, surely, but especially Stevenson-react to this collective removal: each in their own way but all fully aware that something fundamental was lost in their society. The Man. GKC realizes that being obtuse research has resulted in a fall in a strange and cold atmosphere of spiritual emptiness: the Victorians-writes-believed that foreign trade would bring peace: and brought the war. They believed that internal trade were to promote prosperity: it has largely promoted poverty. But for them these were experiments; for we should be teaching. If we continue to treat the people how to use capitalist, though we will continue to serve us foreign arms as it is in the capitalist use our behavior will fall heavily on the living. The dishonor won't stay dead.
