Excerpt from Addresses by Rev. Jesse Appleton, D. D
With a view to render the publication a'n useful manual for the future students of the institution, as well as an interesting me? Morial to those who'have enjoyed its benefits, it was thought that it would increase the value of the collection, without impair ing its unity, to include some other performances of Dr. Appleton upon similar occasions. AS a legacy either of affection or nu struction, it will probably not be rendered less acceptable, nor be deemed as requiring any apology, for being enriched with the Address delivered upon his inauguration, and what is termed the Introductory Lecture, illustrating the dangers and securities of collegial life. This lecture was originally prefixed to his regular theological course. To these is added the letter to the stu dents written from Amherst at the commencement of his last ill ness, explaining his absence and enforcing upon their attention the practical observance of several important precepts. If the interest of this communication is capable of being increased by any circumstance, it would be that of its being the last ever addressed to them by him-and with particular propriety there fore closes the present volume.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book, published in 1820 and the first of the author's publications preserved for posterity, is a compilation of fourteen of the author's addresses delivered at Bowdoin College between the years 1808-1819. They cover topics from classical studies to the importance of application to the dangers of college life. The author provides insight into the moral issues of his time, morality, virtue, the difference between moral actions, and the importance of religion, and how they continue to impact the public discourse of his day. His commitment to the idea that morality must be central to any educated society shines through each of his speeches, and his analysis of the moral landscape of his time offers valuable insight to readers interested not just in the moral philosophies of the past, but the ways in which morality in education remains a topic of enduring importance.
