Excerpt from Christianity in the Nineteenth Century: The Bostons-Lowell Lectures, 1900 Like Otto P eiderer's famous work, Das Urchris tent/ruin, etc., etc., which was an elaboration of his Hibbert Lectures, delivered in England this volume is the outgrowth of the Lowell Lectures, given before the Lowell Institute, in Boston, during the last winter of the nineteenth century. The object of the author is to present Christianity as it has thought and toiled through a hundred eventful years; and as all sublunary things are the vassals of vicissitude, to indicate what changes on its human side have taken place in creeds, expositions, rituals, and practical meth ods of endeavor. It has not been possible to enter the bypaths or to explore the obscure nooks of this history, and consequently only the highways and mountain sum mits have been surveyed. These, however, are suffi cient. To have attempted more would have added no special value to the inquiries instituted, and would have substituted wearisome chronological annals for philo sophical generalizations.
