Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Problems of Life: Selections From the Writings of Rev. Lyman Abbott, D.D Among useful callings the work of an interpreter should take high rank. Need of interpretation is constant and urgent; Nature and Life must be interpreted; Revelation calls for an interpreter; men and books and events and the age in which we live all require interpretation. Prophecy is interpretation of things hidden or mysterious; art is interpretation of nature or of character or of the meaning of music. The interpreter finds high thought more or less obscurely expressed in words or works human or divine, and brings it down to the comprehension of those to whom he speaks. He is a mediator. It is needful that he should be able to trace the subtle movements of the minds which follow the loftier ranges of thought, and discern the larger and remoter implications of philosophy and science, and also that he should understand the mental conditions of those to whom he brings his message, who are often busy men, untrained in scholastic speculations and distinctions. The teacher from whose spoken or published words the pages which follow have been gathered, seems to have been rarely fitted for this work of interpretation.
