Synopsis

""A Discourse of Matters Pertaining to Religion: The Collected Works of Theodore Parker V1"" is a book that brings together the writings of Theodore Parker, a prominent American theologian and social reformer of the 19th century. The book contains a collection of Parker's essays, sermons, and speeches on various topics related to religion, including his views on God, Jesus, the Bible, and the role of religion in society. Parker was known for his progressive and liberal interpretations of Christianity, and his writings often challenged traditional religious beliefs and practices. This book provides readers with a comprehensive view of Parker's thoughts and ideas on religion, and serves as an important resource for anyone interested in the history of American theology and religious reform movements.1863. Part One of Fourteen. Theodore Parker was a preacher, lecturer, and writer, a public intellectual, and a religious and social reformer. He played a major role in moving Unitarianism away from being a Bible-based faith, and he established a precedent for clerical activism that has inspired generations of liberal religious leaders. Although ranked with William Ellery Channing as the most important and influential Unitarian minister of the nineteenth century, he was an extremely controversial figure (he was active in the antislavery movement) in his own day and his legacy to Unitarian Universalism remains contested. A Discourse of Matters, a Transcendentalist manifesto, is a course of lectures wherein Parker systematically lays out his ideas about inspiration, Jesus, the Bible, and the church.
