Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Quarterly Church Review and Ecclesiastical Register, Vol. 20: April, 1868 Philosophy in truth was no natural growth of Roman soil. When they wanted a Philosopher, they had to import a Greek. Their language had not the distinctness, the subtlety, the dis crimination of meaning, requisite for Philosophic thought and Philosophic discussion. Their temper was utterly averse to these, their talents unadapted to them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
