JOHN JAY CHAPMAN AND HIS
LETTERS. BY M. A. De Wolfe
Howe. Boston: Houghton Miffiin
Co.
John JAY CHAPMAN wrote more
than 20 books. He was q vivid,
positive person and, above all, the
most opinionated of men. Born to
wealth, his life was his own. He
spent it writing his precious essays,
translating Greek plays, writing fine,
fulsome letters and crusading. 1t is
hard to define exactly what this in
telligent. perceptive man meant to his
times. His books are of interest as
literary and social criticism, yet his
scope was highly limited. Undoubt-
edly he meant more as a personality
than as writer.
His reactions to the world about
him were fresh and completely un-
inhibited. He sneered at Big Busi-
ness in an era when that was rankest
heresy. He turned ferociously upon
Harvard which had nurtured him.
He scorned Stevenson's thinness when
that writer was setting the fashion
for all others. A mystic, he engaged
William James and other masters of
philosophy in provocative debate. He
dabbled in political reform, but he
seems to have been the purest kind
OF dilettante in politics. He covered,
then, almost every field OF intellectual
activity. Certainly he was mile
wide.
Chapman was a born autobiogra-
pher and 1t is a great pity he never
finished his life story. But falling
