Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Methodist Hymnology After he had been thus engaged for some time, he was greatly encouraged in his undertaking by finding, in a minister of our church, one who regarded its hymnology with an interest equal to his own. Since then they have in a measure pursued the subject together, and to him the author is indebted for much valuable information in the preparation of his work. When the author first directed his attention to Methodist or Wesleyan hymnology, the subject had attracted but little public interest. Soon after his earliest newspaper articles were published, he was somewhat, though agreeably, surprised to find that, simultaneously with himself, two other persons, one in our own country, the other in England, were devoting some attention to the same topic; both of whom have since published the results of their labors: the former, Dr. Floy, in a review of the M. E. Hymn-book in the Methodist Quarterly Review for May, 1844; the latter, Mr. Burgess, in a small volume, entitled "Wesleyan Hymnology, or a Companion to the Wesleyan Hymn-book," which appeared in London, in 1845, and passed to a second edition the following year. During the past year, the M. E. Church, South, have published a new collection of Hymns, prepared by an able committee, of which the Rev. Dr. Summers was chairman. An elaborate review of the new Hymn-book, comprising upward of sixty pages, appeared in the Southern Methodist Quarterly Review for January, 1848. These publications, together with a small tract of thirty or forty pages, ably written by the Rev. Thomas Roberts, and issued at Bristol in 1808; the brief but valuable observations of Mr. Watson, in his Life of Wesley; the still more concise remarks of Mr. Moore; and the equally interesting, but more extended, review of Wesleyan poetry, by Mr. Jackson, in his biography of Charles Wesley; in connection with which, perhaps, ought to be mentioned the remarks of Milner, in his Life of Dr. Watts, of Holland, in his Psalmists of Britain, and some brief notices by James Montgomery, in his Christian Psalmist, and other works; comprise nearly all that has been published on this deeply interesting and important department of church literature.
