The Silver Cross, or The Carpenter of Nazareth (The Mysteries of the People; or History of a Proletarian Family Across the Age #4)

0/5 ( ratings)

The present story—The Silver Cross; or, The Carpenter of Nazareth—is a marvellous presentation of one of the world's leading events in a garb without which that event is stripped of its beauty and significance. As the narrative rushes onward thrillingly from start to catastrophe, it delineates one after another the leading features of the oppressors' class—their unity of action, despite hostile politico-material interests and clashing creed tenets; the hypocrisy that typifies them all; the oneness of fundamental purpose that animates pulpit, professional chair, or public office in possession of a plundering class.
Page after page holds the mirror up to the modern ruling class—its orators, pulpiteers, politicians, lawyers, together with its long train of menials of high and low degree—and, by the reflection cast, enlightens and warns.
TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE
DANIEL DE LEON.
