Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Prose Works of the Right Reverend Thomas Ken, D. D: Sometime Bishop of Bath and Wells; Now First Collected and Edited With a Biographical Notice The admirable biography of the saintly Bishop Ken by the Dean of Wells, which was published last year, will probably always remain the standard work. Very little additional information is likely to be forthcoming. We therefore have no intention of detailing events at length, but refer the reader who seeks knowledge concerning Kens life and character, or concerning the times in which he lived, to Dr Plumptre´s fascinating volumes, and only set down the simple outlines of his life by way of introduction to the following collection of his pros 6 works, the fullest that has ever yet been published. His Practice of Divine Love, and Manual for the Winchester Scholars, are easily accessible; and his sermons, though less common, are not very difficult to procure, but the first work in the present volume is excessively rare, and the last is seldom met with except in old libraries. Thomas Ken was born at Berkhamstead in July 1637. His mother died when he was four years old; his father, when he was fourteen.
