Abstract
Up to this point we have examined Santayana on democracy through the medium of his expressions about American democracy in particular. The conclusion of that part of the study was that he has interpreted democracy sympathetically, that his descriptions follow rather conventional patterns in that he conceives of the nature of democracy as does common opinion, in the main. There are no striking deviations from expectation; he paints the picture, on the whole, pleasingly and competently. With such background we approach his more general sketches of democracy's features.
