II matters little where in this vol
ume the reader turns the page; there
is hardly n dull word, or a passage

his opinion. gave evidence OF the
most pronounced versatility.
1t is not given 70 every writer of
distinction to be endowed with ora
torial power. The lecturer has his
set program and is not always happy
as an impromptu speaker. Georg
Branties appears TO belong to the
comparatively few for when it is
reserved to be all-inclusive. When
in America, in the spring of 1914.
he proved delight TO the many who
heard him either as a lecturer. or
responding TO some toast when guest

had this exceptional opportunity TO

SPEECHES. by Georg Brandes.
Copenhagen: Gyidendals.
TN December OF 1876 Georg
Brandes spoke before the Stu
dents Society OF Christiania.
Norway, his topic being political and
religious liberty and freedom of
utterarce. Brandes was then 81
years old and engaged in a literary
warfare with the staii conservatives
IN his own country. 1t is long time
from that period to yesterday, when
both in Europe and America lovers
OF literature paid tribute to this
famous Danish critic on the attain
ment of his cightieth birthday. But
that speech before the Norwegian
students, the first to be included in
the present volume, in which he hit
at the Christiania University author
tiles for denying him the privilege to
address the students from any ros-
trum. in the university proper. re-
vealed the same Georg Brandes who
during the almost half n century fol-
lowing fought stupidity with pen and
word.
Many were the occasions since 1876
when Brandes made speeches in the
Norwegian capital. and the univer-
sity authorities were only too glad to
make amends for their shortsighted
ness before real fame came to the
Danish critic. But while a number
of these addresses are included in tho
book at hand, the full cosmopolitan
flavor that characteriZes Brandes's
delivery before an appreciative au-
licnce is brought home to the re-
viewer az we turn away from Scan

calls for little comment. This edition
is an exception. 1t is distinguished
