Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Literary Remains of the Late William B. O. Peabody, D.D It was intimated in the volume containing the Memoir and Sermons of Dr. Peabody, that a collection of Ins Miscellaneous Writings would be published. Accordingly, the present selection has been prepared from his numerous contributions to the "North American Review." These were written at different periods from 1830 to 1846. They embrace a number of favorite subjects, and illustrate the extensive research, the enthusiastic love of nature, the delicate perception of moral beauty, and the lofty and uncompromising standard of right, which, blended together by his quiet humor, always characterized him. In selecting the articles for publication, the object has been to give those which have been marked out as best by public opinion, and those which seemed to give the most faithful picture of his mind and heart. Omissions have been made only when dictated by the necessity of reducing the article within proper limits, and then such parts have been omitted as were not necessary to the connection or value of the article. It has been thought by some of Dr. Peabody´s friends, that a volume of his Miscellanies would be incomplete without a selection from his Poetical Writings. At their suggestion, those which seemed most worthy to be preserved have been brought together, and are placed at the end of the volume.
