Merci pour tous ces liens. Ça me tient occuper !
Ici, je ne fais que mettre le lien actif puisqu'il était collé sur : donc rendu ainsi inactif.

Pas mal sur la coche!

Je cite des extraits :

«On the other hand she did some real harm. Nobody is well served by getting the raw facts wrong. Many a gullible young atheist will have been confirmed in his newly-minted obscurantism by her work, and led just a step or two further from the light of knowledge into the darkness of ignorance and intellectual self-destruction.»

«She was not an educated woman. This fact lay at the root of all the mistakes of historical judgement that filled her books. I never detected the slightest interest in history for its own sake. If she had had this, it might have given her the education she lacked. As far as I can tell, she never understood that history must start by compiling the primary sources and seeing what they say. To the end, a book by some writer of the 19th or 20th century was “authority” – so long as he said what she wanted to hear! In fairness she used better sources in her later books. Acharya S wanted, wanted very badly, to be learned; but only, one sensed, to bolster the cause.»
