Excerpt
“As this paper contains nothing which deserves the name
either of
experiment or discovery, and as it is, in fact, destitute of
every
species of merit, we should have allowed it to pass among
the
multitude of those articles which must always find their way into
the
collections of a society which is pledged to publish two or
three
volumes every year. . . . We wish to raise our feeble voice
against
innovations, that can have no other effect than to check the
progress
of science, and renew all those wild phantoms of the
imagination
which Bacon and Newton put to flight from her
temple.”—Opening
Paragraph of a Review of Dr. Young’s Bakerian Lecture.
Edinburgh
Review, January 1803, p. 450.
