Hilaire Belloc's 'The Servile State'
Book review.
http://thoughts.editthispage.com/stories/storyReader$85

Extractions: Click on title to see index Written in 1912 this book regards the post Roman Empire as the high point of social organisation and the subsequent period as a fall and a slow return to the system of slavery. The early period of history that the author refers to is little known and so it is easy to claim wonders for it and very difficult to prove such claims right or wrong. He writes that as the Roman Empire declined the large slave operated estates gradually changed from enforcing slavery to a system of payments and rights to use some of the land. The workers had a duty to work a certain amount of time or do certain duties, but they also had the right to use some of the land for their own benefit. The author regards this as a high point because everyone had some access to land. He decribes this as owning the means of production, and that, to the author, is very important. We know very little about the details of those obligations and rights and very little about the relationships and standards of living that this system produced. The author states that a worker who does not work would starve if he soley depended on working, but that a worker/landowner who does not work would be able to rent out his use of the land and thereby eat. This is an odd claim because it assumes that there are others who can make use of that land and will pay enough rent for the 'owner' to be able to eat. This would not necessarily be true. When the author gives an example of the relationship of tenant farmer to landlord he suggests that the tenant pays 40% of the proceeds to the landlord. This seems odd. As far as I am aware the return to landlords of farms has tended to be closer to 5% a year (where the tenant supplies his own operating capital). That would mean that a tenant takes 95% of the proceeds and so a worker/owner who could not work would have to try to survive on a mere 5% of his normal income. As the economy at that time was probably at subsistence level this would mean starvation.

Heresy Of Mohammed The Founder Of Islam, The Faith Of Muslims
Roman Catholic interpretation of Mohammedanism, by hilaire belloc (18701953).
http://www.trosch.org/bks/mohammed.html

Extractions: INTRODUCTION : The Great and Enduring Heresy of Mohammed Mohammed, a pagan who recognized the imperfections of paganism, founded the religion of Islam by extracting from Christianity (Catholicism) some of its doctrine. Not having the gift of faith, Mohammed, having lived among Catholics for much of his life and gaining knowledge of the established teachings of Christianity but not having an association with the reality of faith, selected from Christian teachings those aspects that he could accept that would still give him the opportunity to be seen as a great prophet and religious leader. As common with those who found their own belief system, Mohammed selectively included many beliefs that met with his own humanistic criteria, goals and desire for power while keeping an imaginary relationship with God. Index of Documents on Islam The following article is excerpted from a book entitled: "The Great Heresies," by Hilaire Belloc (1870-1953) who was one of the premier Catholic apologists of the early twentieth century. In this work Belloc analyzes the concept of heresy and examines the five greatest attacks upon the Church Arianism, Islam, Albigensianism, Protestantism and Modernism. The book is published by; Trinity Communications, Manassas, Virginia. Mohammedanism a heresy, a perversion of Christian doctrine.

Site map Born in La Celle St. Cloud, near Paris, France on the 27th July 1870, to Louis Belloc, a French Barrister, and Elizabeth Parkes Belloc (1829-1925), ( Bessie Rayner Parkes In December 1871 the family moved to Westminster in London, where young Belloc attended Mrs Case's Preparatory School in Hampstead. Six years later the family relocated again to Arundel in the South Downs. In September 1880 Belloc began studying at the Oratory School in Edgbaston, Birmingham , where he was awarded the English Prize. It was whilst here that he wrote his first work entitled Buzenval , not published until 1888. After an unsuccessful spell in the French army, in 1893 Belloc was awarded a scholarship at Balliol College, Oxford. He became a naturalised British subject in 1902, and a Liberal MP in 1906, but, disillusioned with politics, did not seek re-election in 1910. He was a close friend of G K Chesterton, who illustrated many of his books. Although he is well known for his nonsensical verse for children, becoming famous with The bad child's book of beasts (1895), he also wrote many novels, essays, travel books, several historical studies, including

Extractions: Hilaire Belloc: Defender of the Faith FREDERICK D. WILHELMSEN Had we had ten Hilaire Bellocs in the English-speaking Catholic world in the past fifty years, we might have converted the whole kit-and-caboodle and avoided the mess we find ourselves in today. Hilaire Belloc, coupled in memory always with his great friend G. K. Chesterton, made the defence of the Faith the main business of his life. He wielded a mighty sword. Had we had ten Hilaire Bellocs in the English-speaking Catholic world in the past fifty years, we might have converted the whole kit-and-caboodle and avoided the mess we find ourselves in today. With that impossible declaration behind me, I might better begin with a story told about him he was a man who collected myths about his person, and I cannot verify the truth of this. Upon being honored with a papal decoration well into his old age, Belloc refused to put out the money needed to buy the medal and grumbled: What would they say if I changed my mind? Hilaire Belloc was not built to fit any cloth fashioned by mortal man. Although he often groused about his own age (I do not mean his chronological age he always complained about that! but his moment in time), Belloc would have been impossible in any other age. Growing up as he did, in the twilight of the reign of Queen Victoria, blinking brilliantly in nonsense verse and radical politics in the time of King Edward VII, a child prodigy called by his aunt Old Thunder, Hilaire Belloc reposed upon a broad upper-middle-class English society that read him, first adored him, then good-naturedly put up with him, and finally isolated him. I was once welcome in that house, he commented wistfully when the automobile in which he was driving passed the home of an exceedingly rich man. His intransigent defense of all things Catholic first amused a literate and basically skeptical gentry looking for novelty; then offended; finally, it was considered intolerable.
