Excerpt from The Revolutions, Insurrections and Conspiracies of Europe, Vol. 1
It has been the writer's object in these volumes to trace out the Revolutions by which modern society was framed out of the ruins of ancient civilization; the imperfections which attached to these new systems, and the resistance which these imperfections provoked. M. Girardin justly observes that "the history of the Middle Ages belongs to ourselves;" - all the great questions, political and religious, which still divide mankind came into existence during that period of intellectual darkness, but also of great mental activity. All the inferior powers of the mind were engaged in discussing; none of the superior faculties were summoned to decide. Just as a man groping in the dark will lay hold of many objects which he would not venture to touch in broad day; so men in an age of ignorance, and ignorant men in all ages, will raise questions of momentous importance, decide them with flippant dogmatism, and claim for their crude guesses the attributes of infallibility.
