A propos de cet article

Second Nashville, Tennessee edition. 334, [2] pages. Hardcover: H 15.75cm x L 10.25cm. Original dull green cloth with some light mottling and staining; spine's gilt stamped floral decoration and lettering slightly dulled and flaked but still easily legible. Mild toning and soiling to edges; endpapers toned; past owner's name and personal book number written in antiquarian ink on front free endpaper with associated ink impression onto opposing front pastedown; pencil signatures of same owner on both front flyleaves; green powdered substance adhered to rear endpapers as well as on rear flyleaf and opposing publisher's advertising page; mostly light foxing to interior leaves; top corner of pages 271-272 creased from past fold-down. Binding is firm. A good+ copy. Immediately following last text page 334 is an unpaged single leaf (i.e. two pages) featuring list and prices of various M.E. Church, South publications. English Baptist minister John Foster was a fairly prolific essayist with this posthumous edition featuring a "Biographical Introduction" regarding Foster on pages 7-12 by Thomas O. Summers (1812-1882). One of the great theologians and intellects of the Methodist Church, Reverend Summers was elected in 1850 by the general conference as editor of all church books and tracts. From 1866 to 1878 he was editor of the weekly newspaper [Nashville] Christian Advocate. Summers was professor of systemic theology at Vanderbilt University beginning in 1874 and was dean of the theological faculty from 1875 until his death in 1882. Evidently a scarce antebellum Nashville, Tennessee imprint for OCLC cites copies at only three member institutions. Bibliographical reference: Ronald R. Allen TENNESSEE IMPRINTS 1791-1875 #3971. There was a preceding 1855 Nashville edition (OCLC also citing only three holding institutions; Allen #3651) as well as later Nashville editions in 1873 (Allen #7955) and 1883.…
