Methodism Through Victorian Eyes Volume 2: Leslie Stephen, W.E.H. Lecky, and Woodrow Wilson - Softcover
Essentially, although the commentaries upon Wesley's personal and theological characteristics by Stephen, Lecky, and Wilson belong, in substance and methodology, to a past generation of historians and historical scholarship, and although the three of them labored under distinct disadvantages (e.g., religious, political, and historical biases; the unavailability of post nineteenth-century letters, tracts, diaries, and the like), the pertinent sections from each of the three scholars' works continue to strike cords of validity for those who study the role and effect of Methodism in and upon eighteenth-century life and culture. For the sheer sake of historiographic comparison and contrast, each piece remains worthy of continued discussion. The editorial notes supply necessary expansion upon the writers' generalizations and thus strive to sharpen, clarify, and correct the focal points of each argument.
