Description

First published in 1920, The Intellectual Life has been repeatedly reprinted and continues to inspire and instruct young scholars.

First Sentence

When we speak of vocation, we refer to those who intend to make intellectual work their life, whether they are entirely free to give themselves up to study, or whether, though engaged in some calling, they hold happily in reserve, as a supplement of their activity and as a reward, the development and deepening of their mind.
