Excerpt from The Hope of the Great Community

On September fourteenth 1916 Josiah Royce died, in his sixty-first year. The essays composing the present volume were written during the last year of his life and, thus representing his latest phases of thought, and being in the press at the time of his death, they become, in some sort, a memorial volume. The very title seems almost prophetic.

Some of Professor Royce"s friends have thought that no more fitting tribute to his memory could be found than the memorial verses of Miss Laura Simmons already published in the Boston Herald and the New York Times. Miss Simmons graciously permits their repetition here.
