Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Religious Thought in England, Vol. 2: From the Reformation to the End of Last Century; A Contribution to the History of Theology It was stated in the Preface to the First Volume that the object of this work was to trace the history of religious thought in England since the Reformation. I then intimated that I was not writing a philosophy of the history of religion, but a part of the history itself. Merely to have given my own conclusions, or my own theories, would have been easier for me, and perhaps more agreeable to the reader. But I preferred collecting and arranging material which would not only illustrate the stand-point from which I was writing, but also have a permanent value in itself. It has been suggested by a reviewer that it would have added to the interest of the work if I had said more about the characters of the men of whom I have occasion to write, and less about their books. It was also suggested that I might have traced the connection of doctrines prominent at certain times with the same or kindred doctrines in other countries. Both these things would doubtless have been interesting, but they are beyond my province. I fixed the limits, that the work, within these limits, might be as complete as I could make it. A history of ideas could not be expected to have the same interest as a history of events; and when confined to England, there was a necessity for details that will often seem tedious.
