Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a memoir that presents a nuanced critique of the English Dissenting system, and especially the educational facilities and academic rigors of the dissenting academy the author attended. The author, who eventually became a minister, was dismayed by the poor academic preparation and the shallow understanding of theology and Biblical languages he witnessed among his fellow students and even some faculty. He argues that the lack of robust academic engagement was because ordination was open to any man by any congregation, regardless of education, which resulted in the lowering of standards in Dissenting academies. The author further critiques the Dissenting system for its over-reliance on extemporaneous, off-the-cuff preaching, and its eccentric emphasis on prayer meetings that led to unprofessional and even chaotic worship services. Despite the author's obvious commitment to the values of Nonconformity, this book provides an illuminating and candid insider's view of the weaknesses and strengths of the English Dissenting movement in the author's time. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780243439515_0
