词汇 birrellism
词源
birrellism; birreligion. The charm and unobtrusive scholar- ship displayed by Augustine Birrell (1850–1933) in his Obiter Dicta and other works led to the formation of the word birrel- lism for shrewd cursory comments on humankind and life in general. Birrell, a barrister elected to Parliament in 1889, be- came president of the national board of education and chief secretary for Ireland (1907–16). He is noted for Birrell’s Educa- tional Bill of 1906 and the founding of the Roman Catholic Na- tional University of Ireland. Birreligion indicated the political import of his educational bill.
