About this book
Major Prophets of To-Day is a book by Edwin E. Slosson. The preface says each age has its own prophets, men who bring to it distinctive messages and present them in such effective form as to sway the currents of contemporary thought. The volume is dedicated to May Preston Slosson, called the companion of the author's pilgrimage to the Old World in search of new prophets.
The text says Pasteur was a chemist, an inorganic chemist at that, and was running down the cause of asymmetry in crystals when he found himself over in the field of biology. The text says the imprisoned sisterhood, the anæmic heroines of Maeterlinck's earlier period, refuse to follow Ariane to freedom. The text says of Haeckel that he picks up his church history from infidel pamphleteers and recklessly caricatures Christian beliefs.
