Excerpt from Prophets of Yesterday and Their Message for to-Day
The object of the founder of the Lectures is to continue the mission of William Belden Noble, whose supreme desire 1t was to extend the influence of Jesus af the way, the truth, and the life; to make known the meaning of the word Jesus, 'i am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.' In accordance with the large interpre tation of the Influence of Jesus by the late Phillips Brooks, with whose religious teaching he in whose memory the Lectures are established and also the founder of the Lectures were in deep sympathy, it is intended that the scope of the Lectures shall be as wide as the highest interests of humanity. With this end in View, the perfection of the spiritual man and the consecraizion by the spirit of Jesus of every de partment of human character, thought, and activity, the Lectures may include philosophy, literature, art, poetry, the natural sciences, political economy, sociology, ethics, history both civil and ecclesiastical, as well as theology and the more direct interests of the religious life. Beyond a sympathy with the pur pose of the Lectures, as thus defined, no restriction is placed upon the lecturer.

Prophets of Yesterday and Their Message for to-Day (Classic Reprint)
Print-on-DemandAnbieter: Forgotten Books, London, Vereinigtes Königreich
Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book analyzes and interprets the works and lives of three notable English writers - Carlyle, Arnold, and Browning. The author positions these literary giants within a broader historical context exploring the Victorian era's preoccupation with contrasting and comparing two main strands of thought: Hebraism and Hellenism. These terms broadly represent the dichotomy between ethical conscience and artistic desire. The book examines how the influence of these opposing forces shaped these three authors - how Carlyle championed the austere ideals of conscience, while Arnold and Browning sought to reconcile conscience and desire through their writings. Ultimately, this book argues that the insights of these great minds have deeply influenced our understanding of the human condition, and continue to provide valuable perspectives on the search for meaning and fulfillment in life. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
