University And Other Sermons (1903)

University and Other Sermons is a collection of sermons written by Mandell Creighton, a British historian and bishop of London from 1897 until his death in 1901. The book was published posthumously in 1903 and contains a series of sermons that Creighton delivered during his time as a professor of history at Cambridge University. The sermons cover a range of topics, including the role of the university in society, the importance of education, and the relationship between science and religion. Creighton draws on his knowledge of history and theology to offer insights into these issues, and his writing is marked by a thoughtful and nuanced approach. In addition to his reflections on education and society, Creighton also addresses more personal topics, such as the nature of faith and the struggle to maintain a spiritual life in the face of adversity. His sermons are marked by a deep sense of compassion and a commitment to social justice, and he frequently speaks out against the injustices of his time, including poverty, inequality, and war. Overall, University and Other Sermons offers a fascinating glimpse into the mind of one of the most influential thinkers of the late 19th century. It is a thoughtful and engaging collection of sermons that will be of interest to anyone interested in the intersection of religion, education, and society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
