About this book
Begun at Oxford while war raged from 1914 to 1918, these short essays by George Santayana grew out of walks along the Thames and reflections on England. The first group, Soliloquies in England, treats the British character, dons, snobs, Dickens, English architecture and the Church; the Later Soliloquies of 1918 to 1921 turn to liberty, masks, comedy and tragedy, and British philosophy, with pieces on Occam's Razor and the British Hegelians. Scribner issued the collection in New York in 1922, and several essays had appeared in The Athenaeum.
