PROSPECTUS
OF A
Theological & Philosophical Library
EDITED BY
HENRY B. SMITH, D.D., AND PHILIP SCHAFF, D.D.,
_Professors in the Union Theological Seminary, New York._
The undersigned propose to publish a select and compact Library of
Text-Books upon all the main departments of Theology and Philosophy,
adapted to the wants especially of ministers and students in all
denominations.
Some of the works will be translated from the German and other
languages; others will be based upon treatises by various authors; some
will be written for the Library by English or American scholars. The aim
will be to furnish at least one condensed standard work on each of the
scientific divisions of Theology and Philosophy, giving the result of
the best critical investigations, excluding, however, such histories and
commentaries as extend through many volumes.
This scheme is not presented as final, but as indicating the aim of the
editors. If sufficient encouragement be given, no pains will be spared
to make the project complete, and thus to meet a great and acknowledged
desideratum in the apparatus for study. On all these topics every
student needs, at least, one good work. To supply this will be the aim
of our Library.
The various volumes will be published in the best style, on reasonable
terms, and as rapidly as the nature of the work and the encouragement of
the public will allow.
