am persuaded that those who are best acquainted with the difficulties of the original will be most indulgent toward the style of the version. This first volume, although only the Introduction to the entire work, is yet a complete whole in itself, viz., a survey of the whole current of the ethical thought of humanity from the earliest dawn of scientific reflection down to the latest results in Christian theology. The motives that led me to undertake the translation have been various. Esteemed teachers exhorted me thereto, as soon as notices of the work began toappear. German scholars spoke to me enthusiastically of its unparalleled excellence. My chief motive, however, has been a com pound of gratitude and hope, gratitude to the devout thinker whose work had been, to me, the medium of so much spiritual good, and a hope of helping others to the styne good. For, in fact, no other human production has lifted, for me, so many vails from shadowy places in Revelation and Providence; none has worked so effectually in definitively directing my mind and heart toward that Light which stands, serene and ever-brightening, over against the comfortless spectacle of the successive and rapid extinguish ment of every effort at social reform which does not kindle its torch at the central Source of all light.This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.
