Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Psychological Approach, to the Study of Prophecy a Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts, and Literature in Candidacy for the Degree, of Doctor of Philosophy, (the Graduate Divinity School Department or Old Testament The psychology of religion is no longer a new field of research. Within the last two decades, it has been pursued from various points of approach, and no one who has followed its development can question its contribution to the clearer understanding and deeper appreciation of religion in its relation to the whole mental life. During these years both psychology and religion have been subjected to new scrutiny; a psychological method of dealing with religion has added zest in both fields of inquiry, and has produced interesting and stimulating results. These researches and their results have been of great practical value, especially in the province of child and adolescent religion. But comparatively little has been done in the way of a scientific analysis and an attempted explanation of the special and higher forms of religious experience, as exhibited by the prophet or the mystic. The literature in this field is still scanty. Professor Ames in his recent volume devotes a chapter to the psychology of religious genius. A. B. Davidson has dealt specifically, though briefly, with some of the phases of this topic. George Adam Smith in his commentaries on the prophets drops interesting hints of the possibilities in this line of research. Two more recent small volumes by Kaplan and Joyce show the tendency of the times. These books are in the nature of essays on the subject of prophetic psychology, rather than systematic and exhaustive treatments. Among the Germans even less has been done from the truly psychological point of approach. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
