Nineteenth-Century Religious Thought in the West: Volume 2

Front Cover
Ninian Smart, John Clayton, Patrick Sherry, Steven T. Katz
Cambridge University Press, 1988 - 368 pages
Now available in paperback, the successful three volumes of Nineteenth-Century Religious Thought in the West provide a fresh appraisal of the most important thinkers of that time. Some essays centre on major figures of the period; others cover topics, trends and schools of thought between the French Revolution and the First World War. The contributors are among the leading scholars in their field and analyse not only what was said but also why it was said, and explore what is of lasting value in it. Contributions are sufficiently clear to be of use to students in religious studies and cognate disciplines, but have enough depth and detail to appeal to scholars.
