Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Introduction to the Fifth Book of Hooker´s Treatise of the Laws of Ecclesiastical Polity The preparation of a second edition of his introduction was a good opportunity for trying to mend its faults and to fill some of gaps in it. With great regret I have to own that the opportunity has been left almost unused. A few references have been added in the course of revision, and the book has now an index, put together long ago by one who took a keen interest in the first edition, and to whom I had the happiness of dedicating it. I am sorry that I have failed to do more to make the book wrothier of its purpose: and especially that I have not used, for its improvement, the fresh light which has been thrown on Hooker´s life and work by Mr. Ronald Bayne´s admirable edition of the Fifth book of the laws of ecclesiastical policy. I might plead in excuse for my failure the extreme difficulty of continuing to be in any sense a student when one has become a Bishop: but it is tedious sort of plea: and I would rather say instead how grateful I am for the patience and the help which I have found at the University press.
