The authorship of even the ])lnys that bear his 122 Theology and Jfythology, name is still a matter of doubt. The acquisition of knowledge is tlie object of all inquiry. Historical re- search is attractive, because we desire to know what has preceded our own appearance upon the stage of human existence. This desire it is that lifts man above the brutes that perish. Knowledge enables him to general- ize, and to form some intelligent comprehension of his relation not only to the phenomena of the ...present, but to the vanished specter of the past, and, in some sort, permits him to cast the horoscope of the future. It is evident that, to whatever extent he allows feelings of reverence, adoration or early impressions to influence him, to the same extent will his conceptions of the men and social or political movements of antiquity deviate from the standard of rigid truth. Sallust justly remarks that the exploits of the Greeks were sutficiently great and glorious, but were not quite so magnificent as fame had reported them, and assigns as a reason that Greece had produced writers of great ability.
