About this title

Synopsis

Excerpt from Last Essays: Essays on the Science of Religion

The essay on Ancient Prayers has never, as far as I can ascertain, been published before. On looking through my father's papers I dis covered it among several unfinished essays, and as it was apparently ready for press I have included it in the present volume.

The last essay, Is Man Immortal?' has also never been published in England, though it appeared in several American newspapers some years ago under the auspices of the American Press Association I am very grateful to that Association for supplying me with the manuscript which enables me to give it here as originally written. I have placed this article at the end of the volume, as it seemed to me that, whether they agree with its reasoning or not, every reader of my father's writings will feel that the last paragraph forms a beautiful ending to his literary work, a fitting farewell to the world which he was always trying to instruct and improve.
