Apologia Pro Vita Sua
BEING A HISTORY OF HIS RELIGIOUS OPINIONS
By
JOHN HENRY CARDINAL NEWMAN;
edited by
MARTIN J. SVAGLIC,
Loyola University.
For a full appreciation of Newman's APOLOGIA PRO VITA
SUA, acknowledged as one of the greatest autobiographies in the English language,
it is necessary to have a knowledge of theology, ecclesiastical history and biography,
which relatively few contemporary readers are likely to possess. The present ex–
tensively annotated edition supplies this vital background, at the same time pro–
viding a kind of handbook to the Oxford Movement.

Edward Wilmot Blyden
PAN-NEGRO PATRIOT, 1832-1912
By
HOLLIS R. LYNCH,
Roosevelt Un iversity, Chicago.
New light is thrown on
West African and American Negro history of the late nineteenth century through
this study of Edward Blyden, West Indian born Liberian statesman and educator.
The author reveals the way in which Blyden became the intellectual focus of the
English speaking West Africa of his time, and explains that Pan-Africanism and
negritude and the African personality are all concepts which developed under the
stimulus of this thinking. 3

Thomas Kyd
FACTS AND PROBLEMS
By ARTHUR FREEMAN, Boston University.
This biographical and critical
study provides a broad basis for the study of Thomas Kyd's work, which has been
hitherto unavailable in English. It treats Kyd's life, literary career, and the com–
plicated events surrounding his imprisonment and death; his masterpiece,
The
Spanish Tragedy,
and his translations, lost works, and apocrypha. The approach
is scholarly in matters of determining facts, but an attempt has also been made
to assess the playwright's achievement, believed by many to rank with that of
Marlowe.
