To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It constantly led them to a higher ideal while the patriarchal theory, as then understood, perpetuated primitive tyranny. Something of the same character has descended from the social compact to its offspring, the implied contract of modern English law. New duties of man to man, almost numberless, have become legal- ly enf orcible by the beneficient fiction that one shall be supposed to have agreed to do whatever injustice or right he equitably should do for an- other. I have dwelt so long on t...he contrast of these two great periods that I have left myself scant time for the main purpose of my inquiry the causes of that difference. I say causes, for they are many. The great phenomena of history are too complex to be traced to a single or a simple origin. We have had indeed a pseudo philosophy of history that loves to fix attention on some trivial fact in the past, and say, Lo! if this had happened otherwise, all after history had been different! As when Sir Francis Palgrave gravely tells us that if Duke Richard, of Normandy, had not one fine morning happened to see the baker's daughter, Arlotta, washing her feet in a brook, there would have been no William the Con- queror, and therefore no Norman- Conquest, no Magna Charta, no modern England.
