What Has Changed in the Last Century
Collier's caught Henry Cabot Lodge in 1921 at his peak as Senate majority leader and chairman of Foreign Relations; he died in November 1924, remembered chiefly as the man whose reservations kept the United States out of the League of Nations, and his great-grandson Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. later held the same Senate seat and served as ambassador to the United Nations. Sir Oliver Lodge, praised here as an authority on "electricity and ether," lived until 1940, but the ether he defended was abandoned by physicists after Einstein's relativity took hold; his lasting scientific claim is now his pioneering work on wireless telegraphy and tuning, while "Raymond" and his spiritualist writings are read as a study in grief and credulity rather than evidence. The Elizabethan Thomas Lodge needs no revision: "Rosalynde" is still recognised as Shakespeare's source for "As You Like It," though modern scholars give more attention to his later career as a Catholic convert, practising physician and translator of Seneca and Josephus.
