Immanuel Kant's views on politics, peace, and history have lost none of their relevance since their publication more than two centuries ago. This volume contains a comprehensive collection of Kant's writings on international relations theory and political philosophy, superbly translated and accompanied by stimulating essays. Pauline Kleingeld provides a lucid introduction to the main themes of the volume, and three essays by distinguished contributors follow: Jeremy Waldron on Kant's theory of the state; Michael W. Doyle on the implications of Kant's political theory for his theory of international relations; and Allen W. Wood on Kant's philosophical approach to history and its current relevance.

Photographs, maps, timelines, and text all work together to help students of the Bible come to a new level of historical and spiritual understanding in their faith. Hardcover, 320 pages.

Excerpt from The Biblical Illustrator, Vol. 2: Or Anecdotes, Similes, Emblems, Illustrations, Expository, Scientific, Geographical, Historical, and Homiletic, Gathered From a Wide Range of Home and Foreign Literature, on the Verses of the Bible; Isaiah Ver. 2. Yet He also is wise - God works in history: - You have been clever and successful, but have you for otten that God also is wise, that He too has His policy, and acts reasons ly and consistently 2 You think you have been making history; but God also works in history, and surely, to put it on the lowest ground, with as much cleverness and persistence as you do. (prof. G. A. Smith, D.D.) Forgetfulness of God - The forgetfulness, against which Isaiah directs this shaft of satire, is the besetting sin Of very religious people, of very successful people, and of very clever people. (ibid.) The religion that ignores God - It is the temptation of an ordinary Christian, church goin people, like ourselves, with a religion so full of marvellous mercies, and so b essed with regular Opportunities of worship, to think Of God only in con nection with these, and practically to ignore that along the far greater stretches of life He has any interest or purpose regarding us. (ibid.) Man no match for God - After Moscow, Napoleon is reported to have exclaimed, The Almighty is too strong for me. (ibid.)

Excerpt from The Biblical Illustrator, or Anecdotes, Similes, Emblems, Illustrations: Expository, Scientific, Geographical, Historical, and Homiletic, Gathered From a Wide Range of Home and Foreign Literature, on the Verses of the Bible The importance OE the Boom - The historical importance of the Book of Leviticus is very great. One might as well expect to understand the history of Greece, while remaining in ignorance of philosophy and art, or of England, while. Knowing nothing whatever of parliament and the constitution as to understand the history of Israel without a knowledge of the Hebrew ritual. Think how much labour is spent in the study of the classical mythology at our schools and universities, not for any value thereis in itself, but for the light it throws upon classical literature; and yet how little do Christian people realise the importance of studying the modes of worship among the Jews, in order -to understand their literature, which is our Bible I And besides, not only is the knowledge of the Tabernacle worship necessary in order to understand the sacred literature, but it is of real value in itself; not merely of antiquarian and psychological value, like the ancient mythologies, but of present practical value, as throwing light upon the New Testament and illustrating that gospel on which our hopes are founded. This Book of Leviticus, like the Tabernacle itself, is rough and unattractive on the outside, and may even provoke the sneers of the mere passers-by; but it is all glorious within, and to those who with reverent feet enter its portal, there will be unfolded no inconsiderable amount of the unsearchable riches of Christ. There are the rough badgers' skins without; but within there is the glory of gold and the beauty of the fine twined linen, with blue and purple and scarlet, and cherubims cunningly wrought. (j. M.

Concnunme sameness. Coleridge pronounced the Epistle to be the foundest book in existence. Chrysostom had it read to him twice a week. Uther says in his preface: This Epistle is the chief work of the New Testament, the purest gospel. It deserves not only to be known word for word by every Christian, but to be the subject of his meditation day by day, the daily bread of his soul. The more time one spends upon it, the more precious it becomes and the better it appears. Melanchthon, in order to make it thoroughly his own, copied rt twice with his own hand. It is the book he most frequently expounded in his lectures. The Reformation was undoubtedly the work of Romans as well as Galatians; and the probability is that every great spiritual revival in the Church will be connected as cause and effect with a deeper understanding of this book. This observation unquestionably applies to the various religious awakenings which have successively marked the course of our century. In studying the Epistle we feel ourselves at every word face to face with the unfathomable. Our experience is somewhat analogous to what we feel when contemplating the great master ieces of medieval architecture, such, e.g., as the cathedral of Milan. We do not which to admire most, the majesty of the whole or the finish of the details. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
