the north. The religious interest of the north has expressed itself rather in the creation of theologies and new forms of ecclesiastical organization.

Art. Comparatively few communities have attained supreme excellence in art, and made incomparable contributions to the art treasures of the world. Greece has had no equal in the whole field. But the creators of Italian painting and of Gothic architecture were worthy successors of Greek genius.

Personality. In comparing communities one with another as creators of the highest personality, it is impossible to regard quality alone. Every nation can point to one or more men who will forever rank among the immortals. But there have been two or three places and occasions that have witnessed so marvellous a multiplication of exalted personalities as to place the communities in which they appeared far beyond all other societies in human history in this supreme result of social evolution. Such were Athens in the age of Pericles, and Florence in the days of the Medici. Such was France on the eve of the Revolution, and such was England in her noble Victorian age.
