He was called to the See also:bar in 1858, and, in addition to his practice in See also:equity cases, soon began to distinguish himself as an effective contributor to the higher-class reviews. Two articles in the See also:Westminster See also:Review, one on the See also:Italian question, which procured him the See also:special thanks of See also:Cavour, the other on Essays and Reviews, which had the probably undesigned effect of stimulating the attack on the See also:book, attracted especial See also:notice.

In 1904 he published a " romantic mono-graph " of the loth See also:century, See also:Theophano, and in 1906 a See also:verse tragedy, Nicephorus.

As a religious teacher, See also:literary critic, historian and jurist, Mr Harrison took a prominent part in the See also:life of his time, and his writings, though often violently controversial on See also:political and social subjects, and in their See also:judgment and See also:historical See also:perspective characterized by a See also:modern Radical point of view, are those of an accomplished See also:scholar, and of one whose wide knowledge of literature was combined with See also:independence of thought and admirable vigour of See also:style. In 1907 he published The Creed of a Layman, Apologia See also:pro fide mea, in explanation of his religious position.
