F.H. Bradley : Appearance and Reality
'[Aneurin Bevan] burrowed through the Tredegar Workmen's Institute Library, and acquired his characteristically grandiose vocabulary through close study of Roget's Thesaurus... When he chaired the Tredegar Library Committee, ?60 of its ?300 acquisitions budget was delegated to a colliery repairman to buy philosophy books. Bevan could quote Nietzsche, discuss F.H. Bradley's "Appearance and Reality", and deeply impress an Oxford tutor with his crique of Kant's "Categorical Imperative"... Bevan was... deeply influenced by "The Theory of the Leisure Class".'

A.C. Bradley : Shakespearean Tragedy
'Finished reading A.C. Bradley's "Shakespearean Tragedy", which has lain unread for 20 years: a work of profound penetration. Not only has it taught me much about Shakespeare; but its analysis of those values which underlie Shakespeare's tragic conception has in some measure confirmed my own convictions embodied in "But the Earth Abideth".'

Bradley :
Harriet, Countess Granville to her sister, Lady Carlisle, 31 July 1832: 'I have the greatest pleasure in reading religious books. I find that I understand the Bible better than I ever did before, that I know much better what I am not and what I ought to be, that the subject interests and occupies me deeply, whilst I am employed on it [...] I have been reading Fenn's sermons and like most of them extremely as explaining and directing. Bradley's third volume is excellent. Adams' "Private Thoughts" one likes better and better. There are parts that one cannot, but these always redeemed by something so true, so feeling, so practical.'
