Présentation de l'éditeur
Preface the circumstances which directly prepared the way for and led up to the delivery of the course of lectures which here appears in book form. That a Priest of the Church of England should be invited by a diocesan Bishop of the Orthodox Russian Church to give a course of lectures on the English Church to members of the Russian Church, and that the Chief Procurator of the Holy Synod should arrange that those lectures should be delivered in his official residence, are events which do not happen every day, and they are events which betoken such a degree of friendliness towards the English Church on the part of high Russian authorities both ecclesiastical and civil, as would have been scarcely thought possible a little while ago. No doubt for a great many years past there have been influences at work preparing the way for a rapprochement of the Russian and English Churches. A mong ourselves good work has been done by Mr. William Palmer and by Mr. George Williams, and by Dr. Neale and by Mr. W. J. Birkbeck and others; and there have been visits of Russian and Greek Bishops to England and of Anglican Bishops to Russia and to the Greek-speaking countries of the nearer East.

Présentation de l'éditeur
Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
