A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Henry Rogers was an English nonconformist minister, educator, and literary figure, known primarily for his role as a Christian apologist. Born in St Albans in 1806, he was the son of a surgeon and was initially trained for a medical career before shifting his focus to theology after encountering religious literature that deeply moved him. Educated at Highbury College, he entered the Congregationalist ministry in 1829. His early pastoral duties eventually led him to academic roles, including positions at University College London and Spring Hill College, Birmingham, where he taught English literature, mathematics, and mental philosophy. He later became president of the Lancashire Independent College, holding the chair of theology until 1871. Health issues forced his retirement, and he died in 1877. Rogers was a prolific writer, contributing significantly to religious and philosophical discourse through essays, theological works, and literary criticism. His most well-known work, The Eclipse of Faith, challenged contemporary rationalist views and sparked responses from notable figures. His legacy lies in his articulate defense of Christian belief and his influence on 19th-century theological thought.
