Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Answer to the Essays and Reviews The theory propounded by the writers of the Essays and Reviews is simply this - that there are in Scripture several statements of doctrine and of fact which Christians are not bound, by reason and conscience, to interpret literally. The motive for propounding this theory is, as the writers themselves declare, and as from their character and position we have every reason to believe, to induce more persons to trust the Scriptures than at present trust them, and to induce more persons to be Christians at heart than at present are so. No one can deny the excellence of this motive. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Popular Lectures on  the Essays and Reviews

Download or read book Popular Lectures on the Essays and Reviews written by John Cumming and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Popular Lectures on 'the Essays and Reviews': Delivered in Various Places, and Addressed to the Common People Certain divines have fastened on some things hard to be understood, and have turned them into positive and absolute absurdities. These divines are ministers of a Church whose Articles are pre-eminently Protestant - whose martyrs and reformers have been among the most illustrious. No impartial person can fail to recognize great piety in many of her Bishops, great learning in many of her presbyters. The Essays and Reviews do not contain Church of England doctrine. The book, however, has become not celebrated, for that belongs to excellence, but pre-eminently notorious. Unitarian ministers are reading it from their pulpits, and boasting that the Church of England is coming over to them. The Bishops of that Church have met to consider, and as a body have condemned it. They have unanimously denounced the book; it would seem also to be their duty to depose the writers of it.

Book Essays  Reviews  and Addresses  Vol  4

Download or read book Essays Reviews and Addresses Vol 4 written by James Martineau and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-25 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays, Reviews, and Addresses, Vol. 4: Academical: Religious Religion, thus discharged from its hold on reality and reduced to the category of Symbol, is dislodged from its seat as the Supporting postulate of all the Sciences, and takes its place among the F ine Arts to be treated, by writers on the Belles Lettres, among the varieties of rhetorical trope and metaphor and personification, the literal base of which is always found in some aéstractz'on mentally distilled from concrete experience. Hence it is that philosophers and critics who touch upon the subject spend a curious ingenuity in substituting neuter abstracts for the ancient personal names of the Living God. To them, the t/zing denoted is 'the Infinite, ' 'the Eternal, ' 'the Unknowable, ' 'the stream of Tendency, ' The aggregate of Umizangeable Law'; and no longer the Creator and Inspirer' of men, the Father in heaven, ' the Judge of all the earth, ' the Holy One, ' the Searcher of hearts.' To me, I confess, Religion, -in its very essence, is a conscious relation between the human Personality and the Divine: and had I, from change of conviction, to relinquish this relation as imaginary, I should feel bound to surrender the vocabulary of religion to those who retained this essence, and to make the best I could of the unsanctified Ethics that remained. Respect for the vera cities of language would forbid me, by misuse of terms, to wear as a mask a cast of features no longer rendering the expression of my own. The criticisms which are applied to others in one or two of the following Addresses I should feel that I had justly brought upon myself, if to the dwarfed and altered thought I had tried to shrink the grand old language.

Book Modernism  Postmodernism  and the Short Story in English

Download or read book Modernism Postmodernism and the Short Story in English written by and published by Brill. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can the short story help to redefine modernism, postmodernism and their interrelationship? What is the status of the short story in modern literary history? These are the central questions that the essays collected in this volume try to answer from different perspectives through readings of short fiction in English and accounts of the genre’s theorisations. The essays by a group of international scholars tackle theoretical issues that are central in approaches to both “movements” such as periodisation, autonomy, high vs. popular literature, totality vs. fragmentation, surface vs. depth, otherness, representation, and, above all, the subject and its vicissitudes. Because it blends theory-based arguments into the approaches to the short fiction of mainly canonical authors (Joyce, Woolf, Lewis, Ballard, Carter, Rushdie, or Wallace), Modernism, Postmodernism, and the Short Story in English is of interest not only to readers and scholars of the short story, but also to those coming from the fields of literary theory and literary history.

Book Essays on Truth and Reality  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Essays on Truth and Reality Classic Reprint written by F. H. Bradley and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on Truth and Reality I have been unwilling to include so many pages on Pragmatism. The subject certainly does not occupy a corresponding space in my mind. But the reader perhaps will recognize that, having been in a manner forced here to write in self-defence, I am no longer free merely to consult my own wishes. He will find, I trust, that the discussion, if too long, throws light on some points of interest; and in any case the remedy remains in his power. On the other hand, I should be sorry if the examination of 'Radical Empiricism' were left unread. It is a satisfaction to me, when approaching the end of my own career, to note (whatever school or tendency may from time to time be in fashion) the increasing devotion amongst us to metaphysical inquiry. There has been, I think, a rise in the general level of English philosophical thought such as fifty years ago might well have seemed incredible. I am the more resigned to add that the best which I can now myself expect to do is to collect some other scattered writings, as well as perhaps to republish those early volumes which I can no longer hope to re-write.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vet's Daughter combines shocking realism with a visionary edge. The vet lives with his bedridden wife and shy daughter Alice in a sinister London suburb. He works constantly, captive to a strange private fury, and treats his family with brutality and contempt. After his wife's death, the vet takes up with a crass, needling woman who tries to refashion Alice in her own image. And yet as Alice retreats ever deeper into a dream world, she discovers an extraordinary secret power of her own. Harrowing and haunting, like an unexpected cross between Flannery O'Connor and Stephen King, The Vet's Daughter is a story of outraged innocence that culminates in a scene of appalling triumph.

Book Christian Certainty  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Christian Certainty Classic Reprint written by Samuel Wainwright and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-03-14 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christian Certainty Such a book might also, with much propriety, point out the most prominent features of the contrast between the uncertain assumptions of infidelity and the assured certainty of faith. Without detailing all the processes of investigation by which the most certain results have been reached without even enumerating all the results themselves; it might yet present enough of both to dissipate the doubts of a sincere enquirer, and the fears of a timid believer. To that large class of persons to whom a great book is a great evil, 1. Manual such as that now indicated, would be most valuable. Such is the ideal of this little volume: how far that ideal has been realized my readers will decide. It is only natural that for some time yet to come, the attitude of a Christian apologist should be assumed with reference to that of the now exploded Essays and Reviews, supplemented as they have been by The Pentateuch and Book of Joshua critically Examined. Set for the defence of the Gospel; combating that hardihood of assertion which is assumed to impose upon the uninformed detecting those specious sophisms designed to seduce the unwary; and finding so much of both in these last pretentious books on the side of unbelief: what can be more natural than that, tacitly if not explicitly, his own course should be taken with direct reference to that of his adversaries? The following pages have no other concern however with Essays and Reviews, or the astounding production of the Bishop of Natal, than as defending those First Truths which have been therein so malignantly attacked. Hence though not put in by way of answer, they stand out in direct antagonism. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
