Présentation de l'éditeur
Archbishop Whately, make one of the six celebrated Introductory Essays which precede and form a pendent to the new edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica, now in course of publication, the other five having been produced by Professor Dugald Stewart, Sir James Mackintosh, with additions by William Whewell, D.D., Professors John Playfair, Sir John Leslie, and James Duncan Forbes. The reputation and popularity of all these Authors are as universal in the Western as on the Eastern Continent, as that of Baron Macaulay, Lord Brougham, Dr. Chalmers, or Sydney Smith. Hence it requires nothing to be said in commendation of anything that any of these authors may have written, in presenting them to the public. This Treatise has never before appeared in book form, either in Europe or A merica. In consequence, it was deemed advisable to present it in this shape, thereby rendering it accessible to all who had a desire to consult the subject treated of; namely The Rise, Progress, and Corruptions of Christianity, a subject full of interest to every intelligent mind. I have collected the titles of all the Treatises of this gifted and voluminous author, and presented them in chronological order, with a scanty biographical sketch.

Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This profound treatise provides a sweeping overview of the rise, development, and subsequent degradation of Christianity. The author, a respected historical scholar, traces the religion's origins in pre-Christian paganism, with its diverse beliefs and superstitions. They argue that many of the corruptions that plagued Christianity stemmed from a failure to fully grasp its core teachings. The book explores how the Church's struggle to define its doctrines and maintain unity led to schisms and divisions. The author delves into the influence of external factors, such as political power and cultural assimilation, on the evolution of Christian thought and practice. Ultimately, this work offers a nuanced and thought-provoking examination of the factors that have shaped the history of Christianity, making it an invaluable resource for students of religion, history, and the human condition.
