Excerpt from The First Part of the Institutes of the Laws of England, or a Commentary Upon Littleton, Vol. 1 of 2: Not the Name of the Author Only, but of the Law Itself
This to be sure is the most favourable point of view for the editor its tendency being to show, that his excess of zeal to render the edition valuable has been one cause of his finally leaving it imperfect. If it shall be thought preper by others kindly to receive the editor's apology in this form, it will qualify his un happiness at the painful and trying moment of separation from a very favourite work before its advancement into maturity. Should a less indulgent construction be applied to the editor, it will deeply wound feelings already enough exercised; but from a consciousness of being open to some degree of exception for what rigid observers may style an indefensible abandonment of a work so long promised to be completed, he must in that case kiss the rod, and submit himself to the severity of animadversion with a patient humility.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the enduring influence of religious ideas in the cultural and intellectual formation of the West. The author draws upon a wide range of historical sources, spanning the medieval period to the present day, to explore the profound and multifaceted role of religion in shaping Western thought and societal structures. The book challenges narrow conceptions of secularization, arguing that religious ideas continue to exert a powerful, if often subtle, influence on our understanding of the world and our place within it. Through a rich tapestry of examples from literature, philosophy, art, and politics, the author demonstrates how religious narratives, symbols, and practices have left an enduring mark on Western culture. This thought-provoking work offers a fresh perspective on the relationship between religion and the West, inviting readers to reconsider the depth and complexity of religious influence throughout history.
