The Modern Aristotle
BY REV. THOMAS B. GREGORY

THE publication of Jean Bodin's
Republic" at Paris 336 years
ago win ever mark the real
beginning of modern philosophtc
thinking.
Bodin. born at Anglers in 1880,
began life as a lawyer. but taking a
dislike to that profession, turned to
literature, in which province he was
destined to do an immense amount
of good besides making for himself
an abiding fame.
Devoting himself to politica!
economy, and later on to political
science in the broadcast and most
comprehensive sense. he came to be
recognized as the Modern Aris-
totle." His Republic" has the high
and unique honor Of being the first
attempt at reproducing the great
Stagivite's ideas upon society and
government For 1000 years the
work of the mightiest thinker of
antiquity had been practically for
gotten. and It was Bodin who re-
vived it and made it once more a
power in the world.
Aristotle, Bodin, Montesquieu!
Such, according to Sir William
Hamilton, is the great triumvi-
rate" in the field of political science,
the three names that loom above
all others. Going to the immortal
old Greek as to the fountain-h head.
Bodin, inspired by what he found
there, added much that was origi-
nal, and leaving his work behind
him in his Republic" prepared the
way for the illustrious Monies
quieu, the teacher of all who since
his time have written upon the sub
jeot of political science.
Humanity's debt of gratitude to
Bodin is a large one. In more ways
than one he toiled nightly for the
mental and moral uplift of man
kind. He battled for freedom of
conscience, for justice and for
