Excerpt from Pulpit Studies: Or Aids to Preaching and Meditation If to mark the origin of nations, the rise and fall of empires, the events which agitate states and overthrow kingdoms, be a pleasant study, must it not yield equal gratification to mark the commencement of time, and to trace all the families of the earth back to their first progenitor, since his life is so intimately connected with the state of the world around us, with our intellectual, moral, and social nature, our eternal destiny, and more especially with that plan of redemption on which all our hopes are founded ? His life is full of interest, in comparison of which the achievements of the most illustrious persons, and the events of the most remarkable epochs in history, dwindle into insignificance. Let us, then, consider, I. His Creation; II. His Glory; III. His Fall. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This 1980 text was the first full-length study of seventeenth-century pulpit oratory since 1863, and the first to treat both Catholic and Protestant preaching. The first part opens with a general discussion on the sermon as a literary form, followed by a survey of ideas on preaching and the practical 'arts of preaching' circulating in late Renaissance Europe. Of the central chapters on the sermons themselves, two are concerned with the style and complex formal structures of the sermons; while two examine in turn the major themes of illusion and nature and the imagery associated with them. The second part is a descriptive catalogue of extant sermons and some funeral orations of the period, which provided a great deal of information never previously collected. The book made a significant contribution both to the study of a neglected period of French literature, the 'Baroque', and to comparative studies of the sermon.
