Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Cover has some light edge and corner wear.; Although Brigham H. Roberts was an LDS general authority, he was by public consensus and his own admission an intellectual. Consequently, and due to the painfully earnest, meticulous way he approached any issue of consequence and his intimate familiarity with Western thought, he occasionally appeared to be knowingly contradictory. Readers are therefore left to judge whether he vacillated over time, tailored his message to the audience on a "milk-before-meat" principle, or was comfortable camouflaging his real intent in metaphor. On one occasion Roberts defended the traditional Mormon view of the godhead—perfected men who "eat, drink . And procreate" as exalted mortals; another time he seemed less comfortable imposing limitations on a God who cannot be fixed to a single location, for whom Jesus was a mortal incarnation, and for whom the term "trinity" seemed more eloquent than the "presidency of heaven. " His most famous and penetrating analysis focused on the Book of Mormon. In this collection Roberts discusses the mode of its translation, while stopping short of saying that God, who speaks to humans in their own language, could have authored the inconsistent grammar that appeared luminously in Joseph Smith's seer stone. Instead he credits this to Smith's own linguistic contribution, thereby preserving for God a fitting transcendence. Later Roberts went so far as to question the Book of Mormon's historicity. A final example of Roberts's complexity: He proclaimed in public the perfect unity and harmony found at church conferences, but he privately castigated his colleagues for what he considered to be obstinance. He once asked what additional, irrational proposal "may occur to some genius" in the Quorum of the Twelve.; Classics in Mormon Thought Series No. 6; 6" x 9"; 350 pages.…
