Summary "Outspoken Essays" by William Ralph Inge is a collection of essays written in the early 20th century. The essays delve into various topics concerning social science, religion, and political discourse, reflecting on the tumultuous events surrounding the Great War and its implications on society. Inge's work suggests a critical examination of human nature and societal structures, asserting that humanity remains unchanged despite advancements in civilization and grappling with the consequences of war. The opening of "Outspoken Essays" introduces the reader to the author's reflections on societal discontent in the aftermath of the Great War. Inge articulates his views on the speed of social change and the counter-revolutionary forces that follow, asserting that revolutions ultimately lead to self-destruction. He discusses the war's roots in the political and social structures of Europe, highlighting the complex interplay of economic motivations and romantic patriotism. Inge posits that human nature is immutable, revealing both its noble and savage aspects, as he critiques contemporary faith in democracy, capitalism, and social ideals while pondering the future's uncertain prospects for civilization.
