Excerpt from Religion and Historic Faiths

On the basis of stenographic reports, without material change, I have prepared the contents of these lectures for press; so that, as far as possible, the spirit of the spoken word would be caught by the reader. The limited period set for each lecture required a curtailment of the quotations, but in most cases, they have been inserted in this volume at proper length. The close of the semester prevented he actual delivery of the concluding lecture on Islam; completeness, however, made such an omis sion here impossible.

Excerpt from Religion and Historic Faiths

The three introductory lectures will make clear the view-points which served as my standards. Perhaps it would be advisable to recommend to those readers who are less interested in the philosophical reflections contained in the opening lectures, that they begin at the fourth lecture, and after having read the historical matter, turn back to the portion devoted to the philosophy of religion.

For deeper study, I refer the reader to my larger work "Religionsphilosophie auf geschichtlicher Grundlage," (3 Aufl. 1896), and to the text-books on the general history of religion by Tiele, Chantepie de Saussaye, Orelli and Menzies; in them, lists of books treating of the separate religions are given.
