Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Free Inquiry Into the Miraculous Powers: Which Are Supposed to Have Subsisted in the Christian Church, From the Earliest Ages Through Several Successive Centuries The Reputation of Dr. Middleton´s Writings is so well established in the World, that nothing needs be said in favour of the present Collection of them into one Body, especially as many of them were scarce possible to be procur´d. It were to be wished, that he had pursued and completed the Design, which he had formed, of composing an exact History of his Works, with the Occasions and Circumstances of them: In defect of which we can only subjoin a Catalogue of them in the Order, in which they were printed, after having premised a few Particulars concerning his Life, additional to those pointed out by the Index under his Name. He was Son of a Clergyman in Yorkshire, possessed of an easy Fortune, besides his Preferment in the Church; and was born at Richmond, in that County, on the 27th of December 1683. At seventeen Years of Age he was sent to Trinity College in Cambridge of which he afterwards was Fellow; quitting it upon his Marriage, when he was twenty-seven Years old, with Mrs. Drake, Daughter of Mr. Morns of Oak-Morris in Kent, and Widow of Counsellor Drake of Cambridge, a Lady of ample Fortune. After his Marriage he took a Living in the Gift of his Wife, but resign´d it in about a Year. His chief Residence for the rest of his Life was at Cambridge, of which University he was chosen principal Library- Keeper, and held that Place till his Death. After the Decease of his first Wife he travelled thro´ France into Italy, and was at Rome in 1724. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
