Excerpt from Culture and Religion in Some of Their Relations
This little book is a small subject contribution to a great subject. The five Lectures which it contains were delivered, on five successive Saturday"s of last Winter Session, to as many of the Students of the United College and others as chose to attend. They were originally written with a view solely to immediate delivery. The publication of them is an afterthought. It is needless to explain my reasons for publishing them, for these could neither increase nor diminish their value, whatever that may be. One object, however, which I hope may be gained by publication is to place them in a permanent form before those for whom they were originally intended. As lecturers, meant to be understood on first hearing, they are naturally in a style more popular and diffuse than might have beseemed a regular treatise.
