Originally published in 1951, this book makes the original argument that the renowned English critic Matthew Arnold contributed to the climate of "racialism" current during his lifetime. Frederic Faverty shows that in his essays on national character, Arnold used anthropological concepts of race and language, albeit inconsistently.
