Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from New Fragments In the opening words of a Lecture delivered in this city four years ago, I spoke of the desire and tendency of the present age to connect itself organically with preceding ages. The expression of this desire is not limited to the connection of the material organisms of to-day with those of the geologic past, as set forth in the doctrines of Mr. Darwin. It is equally manifested in the domain of mind. To this source may be traced the philosophical writings of Mr. Herbert Spencer. To it we are indebted for the series of learned and laborious works on ´The Sources of Christianity,´ by M. Renan. To it we owe the researches of Professor Max Müller in the domain of comparative philology and mythology, and the endeavour to found on these researches a ´science of religion.´ In this relation, moreover, the recent work of Principal Caird is highly characteristic of the tendencies of the age. He has no words of vituperation for the earlier and grosser religions of the world. Throughout the ages he discerns a purpose and a growth, wherein the earlier and more imperfect religions constitute the natural and necessary precursors of the later and more perfect ones.
