【51】"Humanism" has used to mean too many thing to be a very satisfactory term. 【52】 Nevertheless, and in the lack of a better word, 【53】 I shall use it here to explain for the complex of attitudes which this discussion has undertaken to defend.
【54】 In this sense a humanist is anyone who rejects the attempt to describe or account of man wholly on the basis of physics, chemistry, and animal behavior. 【55】 He is anyone who believes that will, reason, and purpose are real and significant: that value and justice are aspects of a reality called good and evil and rests upon some foundation other than custom; 【56】 that consciousness is so far from a mere epiphenomenon that it is the most tremendous of actualities. 【57】 that the unmeasure, may be significant; or to sum it all up; 【58】 that those human realities which sometimes seem to exist only in human mind are the perceptions of the mind.
【59】 He is, in other words, anyone who says that there are more things in heaven and earth than those dreamed of in the positivist philosophy.
【60】 Originally, to be sure, the term humanist meant simply anyone who thonght the study of ancient literature his chief concern. Obviously it means, as I use it, very much more. 【61】 But there remains nevertheless a certain connection between the aboriginal meaning and that I am attempting to give it, 【62】 because those whom I describe as humanists usually recognize that literature and the arts have been pretty consistently "on its side" and 【63】because it is often to literature that they turn to renew their faith in the whole class of truths which the modem world has so consistently tended, to dismiss as the mere figments of a wishful thinking imagination.
【64】 Insofar as this modern world gives less and less attention to its literary past, insofar as it dismisses that past as something outgrow and 【65】 to be discarded as much as the imperfect technology contemporary with it has been discarded, 【66】 just to that extent it facilitate the surrender of humanism to technology. 【67】 The literature is to be found, directly expressed or 【68】 more often, indirectly implied, the most effective correction to the views now most prevalent among the thinking and unthinking.
【69】 The great imaginative writers present a picture of human nature and of human life which carries conviction and thus giving the lie to all attempts to reduce man to a mechanism. Novels and poems, and dramas are so persistently concerned with the values which relativism rejects that one might even define literature as the attempt to pass value judgments upon representations of human life, 【70】 More often than not those of its imaginative persons who fail to achieve power and wealth are more successful than those who do not--by standards which the imaginative writer persuades us to accept as valid.

In the long period from 1500 to 1800, western European nation-states were all influenced by a set of ideas. known as mercantilism. (111) Mercantilist doctrine and institutions were important because they were held by practical businesspeople and heads of stare who strongly influenced public policy and institutional change.
The primary aim of mercantilists was to achieve power and wealth for the state. To generate an inflow of gold or silver through trade, the value of exports should exceed the value of imports. And the state could attain great power only if political and economic unity became a fact. (112) If all the materials necessary to foster domestic industry were not available they could best be obtained by establishing colonies or friendly foreign trading posts from which such goods could be imported. And a strong merchant marine could carry foreign goods, thereby helping to secure favorable trade balances. (113) Mercantilists believed that these means of achieving national power could be made effective by the passage and strict enforcement of legislation regulating economic life.
(114) Almost as soon as Virginia tobacco began to be shipped in commercial quantities to England, King James I levied a tax on it while agreeing to prohibit the growth of competing tobacco in England. Taxes, regulation, and subsidies were all used as mercantile policies, but the primary ones that affected the colonies were the Navigation Acts.
In 1640s, Americans had slipped into the habit of shipping their goods directly to continental ports, and the Dutch made great inroads into the carrying trade of the colonies. After the Restoration, England was in a position to enforce a strict commercial policy, beginning with the Navigation Acts of 1660 and 1663. Despite the continued modifications to these acts by policy changes, it is sufficient to note three primary categories of trade restriction:
(115) All trade of the colonies was to be carried in vessels that were English built and owned, commanded by an English captain, and manned by a crew of whom three-quarters were English.
All foreign merchants were excluded from dealing directly in the commerce of the English colonies. They could engage in colonial trade only through England and merchants resident there.
Certain commodities produced in the colonies could be exported only to England (essentially any destination within the Empire). These "enumerated" goods included sugar, tobacco, cotton, indigo, ginger and so on.
