.... authoritarian ideologues marching from the death camps of Nazi Germany into the parlors of Reagan's White House.

.... on two tours of America to do Lectures. He later died of a heart attack, in Liverpool, in 1888. Matthew Arnold lived during the Victorian period. For much of this century the term Victorian, which literally describes things and events in the reign of Queen Victoria (1837-1901), conveyed connotations of "prudish," "repressed," and "old fashioned." Although such associations have some basis in fact, they do not adequately indicate the nature of this complex, paradoxical age that was a second English Renaissance. In science and technology, the Victorians invented the modern idea of invention -- the notion that one can create solutions to problems, that man can create new means ....
