The essays offer a detailed analysis of Chesterton's writing style and themes, as well as his impact on modern literature and thought. Overall, Chesterton and Other Essays is a thought-provoking read that provides an insightful look into the works of one of the most influential writers of the 20th century.1912. Scott's original intent for these essays was to link together literary temperaments as dissimilar as those which are included in this volume and to trace the moral and religious teachings of the various writers, however, his rambling spirit took him far afield and rather than keep strictly to a sermonic theme he has done so in an incidental fashion. Contents: Chesterton as Writer and Critic; Chesterton as a Religious Writer; William De Morgan; The Paradox in the Life and Writings of Tolstoi; Ruskin; The Lost Art of Reading; Hawthorne; and George Eliot.
