Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Life of Ezra Stiles, D.D. LL. D: A Fellow of the American Philosophical Society; Of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences; Of the Connecticut Society of Arts and Sciences; A Corresponding Member of the Massachusetts Historical Society; Professor of Ecclesiastical History; And Preside It was in compliance with the wishes and advice of several judicious friends of President Stiles, that the compilation of these memoirs was undertaken. An intimate acquaintance with the President, obtained by a residence of four years at the University, as his pupil; by a subsequent residence there, as a tutor; by a correspondence with him for several years; and by an alliance with his family; gave me some advantages for the delineation of his character, which many persons, otherwise better qualified by superior age and talents, could not possess. These advantages, however, would not, alone, have imboldened me to attempt so arduous and delicate a talk. The President, by his last will, left me the use of his cabinet of manuscripts, consisting of forty volumes. On the receipt of them, above a year after his death, I began, with what diligence my health and professional labours would admit, to examine them; and judged, in the result, that they furnished copious materials for the biography of their Author.
