Synopsis

""Letters On The True Relations Of Church And State To Schools And Colleges"" is a book written by Alexander Blaine Brown in 1853. The book is a collection of letters written to a friend, discussing the relationship between the church and state with regards to education, specifically schools and colleges. Brown argues that the church and state should have distinct and separate roles in education, with the state providing secular education and the church providing religious education. He also discusses the importance of religious freedom and the dangers of government interference in religious matters. The book provides a historical perspective on the debate over the relationship between church and state in education, and is relevant to contemporary discussions on the topic.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The following letters are re-printed, in order that they may be sent to various persons who have not had an opportunity to see them. It is believed, that the questions discussed are of great moment to the interests of both religion and learning :and that they merit the attention of all, and especially of those who have any thing to do with the direction of our literary institutions. The first two letters were published in the Presbyterian Advocate of Pittsburgh, and all of them in the Presbyterian Banner of Philadelphia. DR. BROWN TO DR. MACLEAN, Canonsburgh, Dec. 7th, 1852. Rev. and Dear Sir. I take the liberty of writing to you for the purpose of ascertaining your views in relation to the new policy which is coming to prevail extensively in our Church, with regard to education and educational institutions. Were the advocates of Synodical colleges aiming to plant these institutions in those places only where no others worthy of confidence exist, there would be no cause for complaint.
