British writer GILBERT KEITH CHESTERTON (1874-1936) expounded prolifically about his wide-ranging philosophies-he is impossible to categorize as liberal or conservative, for instance-across a wide variety of avenues: he was a literary critic, historian, playwright, novelist, columnist, and poet. His witty, humorous style earned him the title of the prince of paradox, and his works-80 books and nearly 4,000 essays-remain among the most beloved in the English language In this collection of twenty classic essays, first published in 1905, Chesterton cleverly and wisely develops his ideas about heretics-or those who have the great misfortune not to share his moderate outlook on the world. Essays include: . On the Importance of Orthodoxy . On Mr. Rudyard Kipling and Making the World Small . Mr. Bernard Shaw . Mr. H. G. Wells and the Giants . Christmas and the Aesthetes . On Scandals and Simplicity . Science and the Savages . Celts and Celtophiles . On Smart Novelists and the Smart Set . On the Wit of [James McNeill] Whistler . and others.
