Abstract
NOTHING is so significant of the power of the old classical traditions the extent to which the literature of fiction remains comparatively unmoved under the shock of scientific discovery. For the intellectual revolutions which have, been effected during this past century by a mere handful of blandly inquiring scientists can be matched only by the socialand industrialtransformations to which they have unconsciously contributed in no small measure.
