Viscount John Morley's Writings: An Appraisal
Main Article Content
Abstract
Viscount John Morley was born at Blackburn on 24 December 1838 and died on 23 September 1923. He was a man of versatile genius and untiring energy which went through various fields like politics, statesmanship, journalism, and literature with notable distinction all the way. He acquired name and fame as a man of letters, particularly as a biographer. He was a British Liberal Statesman, Writer and Newspaper editor. His contribution to literature is indeed praiseworthy.1 This article is to uphold a critical evaluation of Morley's writings, since now-a-days, he is better embellished as a philosopher and contributor to literature and more political press.
