Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Text-Book of Church History, Vol. 5 In justice to the memory of a beloved friend and colleague, I can not refuse the request of his wife to preface this last work on which he was engaged with an explanatory statement. Gladly would I have performed also the additional service asked of me to bring down the history and literature to the present date, if it could have been done without neglecting more pressing duties which prevent me from finishing my own Church History. This volume concludes the English translation of the Church History of Dr. Gieseler, which is too well known to need any word of commendation. It was begun by the lamented Professor Henry B. Smith, D.D., LL.D., who had finished one hundred and twenty pages, when he was called to his reward in heaven, February 7, 1877, in the sixty-second year of his age, after a long and painful struggle for life. The remaining eighteen pages of the first part of this volume, to the close of page 138, were translated by Miss Mary A. Robinson, the accomplished daughter of the celebrated pioneer of Palestine exploration, Dr. Edward Robinson, Dr. Smith´s former colleague. This includes the most valuable part of the work, as edited by Gieseler himself, according to his own plan of presenting a documentary history in extracts from the original sources. The second and third parts of the volume embrace Gieseler´s lectures on modern Church History from 1648 to 1854, published after his death (which occurred in the latter year) in two German volumes, by Dr. Redepenning (Bonn, 1855 and 1857).
