ABSTRACT
The remaining lectures are: I, 'The Art of the People,' which has so close a relationship to the preceding lecture that it demands no separate criticism, although it is in no respect inferior; 2, 'The Beauty of Life'; 3, 'Making the Best of It'; 4, 'The Prospects of Architecture in Civilization,' which is not encouraging, although it is not hopeless. As to the style of these discourses, Mr. Morris would do well to rid himselfofhis taste for false archaisms and affected roughness ofexpression, which at the best are but whims unworthy of his powers.
