Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Tutorial Prayer Book: For the Teacher, the Student, and the General Reader Scientifically-constructed Analyses have been introduced wherever serviceable. By their aid the structure of the various Offices is given in a manner which renders their study easy, and the lines of thought in the Canticles, longer prayers, and other parts calling for such treatment, are clearly exposed to view. Frequently writers fail to furnish analyses, possibly because they do not sufficiently realize their paramount importance for the majority of students. The new feature of inserting brief historical notes into the analyses, will, it is believed, prove a welcome combination. The Structural Display of the Text itself, as already used by one of the Editors in elucidating St. Paul´s Epistles, has been adopted for those long sentences and intricate paragraphs which require to be so exhibited that their meaning and the relation of their parts may at once be manifest to the eye and readily grasped by the mind. ´The Preface,´ for example, seems especially to demand such treatment. Owing to its antiquated style it is far too little read; its structural display, it is hoped, therefore, will induce the reader to make it a matter of careful study. Exposition has been carried out as concisely as is consistent with clearness. Care has been taken to avoid being on the one hand Apostles of the obvious, and on the other hand Avoiders of the obscure. When needed, as, for instance, in the case of the Athanasian Creed, a running comment has been introduced, which strikes the happy mean between a paraphrase and a formal exposition. The difficulty and discouragement experienced in Comparing the Various Editions of the Prayer Book are universally known. For these editions are not readily accessible, and even when they are to hand, it is a very tedious process to mark their differences, though one has the practised eye of a technically trained reader. By the method here adopted all variations of any importance are at once brought to the reader´s notice, and he can leisurely examine them. The following example will suffice to show the simplicity and suggestiveness of the method: - 1549. ´An order for Matins daily through the year.´ 1552. ´An order for Morning Prayer daily throughout the year.´ 1662. ´The Order for Morning Prayer,´ etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
