Excerpt from Religious Thought in England in the Nineteenth Century It is a felt difficulty with this kind of history, that the reader may be sometimes at a loss to know who speaks. The rule has been followed of giving every writer's Opinions, as far as practicable and compatible with condensation in his own words, or where this is not done, the author speaks in the name of the writer except when it is very clear that he is speaking in his own person.

Excerpt from Christianity in the Nineteenth Century: The Bostons-Lowell Lectures, 1900 Like Otto Pfleiderer's famous work, Das Urchris tent/ruin, etc., etc., which was an elaboration of his Hibbert Lectures, delivered in England this volume is the outgrowth of the Lowell Lectures, given before the Lowell Institute, in Boston, during the last winter of the nineteenth century. The object of the author is to present Christianity as it has thought and toiled through a hundred eventful years; and as all sublunary things are the vassals of vicissitude, to indicate what changes on its human side have taken place in creeds, expositions, rituals, and practical meth ods of endeavor. It has not been possible to enter the bypaths or to explore the obscure nooks of this history, and consequently only the highways and mountain sum mits have been surveyed. These, however, are suffi cient. To have attempted more would have added no special value to the inquiries instituted, and would have substituted wearisome chronological annals for philo sophical generalizations.

Excerpt from The Bible in the Nineteenth Century It is the object of the present course of lectures to sketch the conditions under which this has been effected, and exhibit some of its results. These have not been attained without difficulty. Powerful forces of tradition were arrayed against too bold enquirers. The influence of ecclesiastical corpora tions, large and small, established and non established, was invoked to suppress undue liberty and avert danger to the faith. It seems fitting, therefore, to recite very briefly at the outset the history of what may be called the struggle for freedom of Biblical research. The chief arena of this contest was the Church of England, though the same controversy arose outside as well as within its fold: and the decisions of the Anglican tribunals, together with the general progress of thought, have been the main instruments in securing for Biblical study in this country its legitimate place. In this respect, the contrast between the laxity of the eighteenth century and the stringency of the first half of the nineteenth is not without instruction.

Excerpt from The Catholic Revival of the Nineteenth Century: A Brief Popular Account of Its Origin, History, Literature, and General Results; Six Lectures At the request of the author of the following lectures I have gladly consented to write a short introduction to them. I have been greatly struck by the thoughtful attention with which my friend of many years' standing has followed the fortunes of the religious movement about which he writes, amid the constant occupations of a commercial life. He has evidently not only read the principal books upon the Oxford Movement, but he has pondered over them, and, after mastering them, has endeavoured to utilize the information so acquired for the benefit of those possessed of less knowledge and leisure than himself. The lectures were delivered substantially as they now appear to large gatherings of Sunday-school teachers. Mr. Worley became acquainted with them through his own active labours as a Sunday-school teacher, and in his endeavours to promote lectures and other instrumentalities by which those self-denying Church workers might be assisted to fulfil more efficiently the important duty which they had undertaken.

Excerpt from The English Church in the Nineteenth Century This little book is an attempt to do, on a very small scale, what has not yet been done, so far as I am aware. It may be that the forthcoming work by Mr. F. Warre Cornish will prove to be the adequate and impartial presentation of the subject which is so much needed. I had hoped to have the great advantage of reading it before sending my ms. To the printers, but it has not appeared in time. Of existing books, the only one in my judgment really satis factory is the late Canon Overton's, which has the same title as my own; but it only covers one - third of the century, 1800 - 1833. Works that include the remaining two-thirds are histories Of the Church from an earlier period, and naturally afford but little Space for later events and episodes; while Of these events and episodes the writers seem to think only three or four worth recording, viz. The Oxford Movement, the Revival of Convo cation, and the Essay: and Reviews and Ritual Controversies. One standard book does treat the period more at length; but its omissions are very strange, as my readers will perceive by referring to the footnote on page 51 Of the present volume.
