Mann TALKS On
A GREAT BOOK
PenSsEEs BY PASCAL, DISCUSSED
LONE OF GREATEST BOOKS
EVER GtV-N TO MANKIND
HAS HAD GREAT INFLUENCE
ON OTHER WRITERS

The students and faculty OF Fargo
college listened to a very able address
this morning by Bishop Cameron ID.
Mann The subject of the series OF
lectures which Bishop Mann will de-
liver from time to time is, Talks on
Great Books, The book on which he
spoke this morning was Pascars PEN
sees. This book, Bishop Mann said,
had had a tremendous influence on
the select minds of men who them
selves have written great books.
The early life and environment Of
Pascal we're given and his great ac-
complishments were enumerated. Be-
fore he was 26 years OF age he had
won fame as a scientist, mathematician
and inventor. Many Jaws OF science
bear his name and much OF the higher
mathematics is result OF his study.
He is accredited with the invention
of the hydraulic press and several
other minor inventions.
Bishop Mann then took up the sec
ono period OF Pascals life. At the
age of 20 Pascal, either through dis
appointment in love or sickness, gave
up scientific research and turned his
attention to religion and philosophy.
Bishop Mann said that Pascars Prov
incial Letters, written against the
| Jesuits was one Of the greatest sue
cesses in controversial literature.
A discussion of the origin Of Pas
calls thoughts was next taken up by
| Bishop Mann. Pascal had intended
to write great book, but died be-
! fore he had any more than gathered
considerable material for it. After his
| death, these fragmentary thoughts
were found in an old scrapbook and
| published. Even with all the dis
advantages of publication" said Bishop
| Mann, this book is one of the most
precious things in all literature" No
| adequate translation has get been given
| this great book. The lecturer charact-
erized Il as, zone OF those works or
genius which cannot be translated"
/ 1t is written in clear, epigrammatic
French prose and is work that Great
ed a great deal OF comment and ex-
citement wien II was first published.
/ In his concluding remarks, Bishop
Mann quoted the opinions Of several
noted men as Dean Church. ]. p.
Mosely and Gibbon on Pascals great
book. He then read and commented
on seNeFal particularly Stiohb prsSeAbvs
from the book
"A man who was the first scientist
of his century, a great inventor, a
man who was practically the founder
of French prose, and a man who left
a book that has had profound in
fiuence on the minds Of great men, II
worth knowing" said Bishop Mann In
conclusion. "and his book is entitled
to be called great book
