Bound volume of eight uncommon pamphlets relating to the controversy initiated by Conyers Middleton's Free enquiry into the miraculous powers supposed to have subsisted in the Christian church from the earliest ages (1748). Leslie Stephen called Middleton's Free Enquiry 'incomparably the most effective [publication] of the whole deist controversy.' It was published the same year as Hume's first Enquiry which contains an essay, 'On Miracles.' Many years later, in My Own Life (London 1777), Hume confessed his chagrin: 'On my return from Italy, I had the mortification to find all England in a ferment, on account of Dr. Middleton's Free Enquiry, while my performance was entirely overlooked and neglected.' There was every reason to compare the two books, for the tendency of both was to undermine the belief in the miraculous. But whereas Hume was raising methodological difficulties about the possibility of providing adequate historical proof of such occurrences ? Middleton was concerned primarily with the [adequacy of the] historical evidence actually available." - Encyclopedia of Philosophy. Middleton was prepared to accord greater authority to the miracles recounted in the Bible than to those attested to by the later Church Fathers.

Very good. Scarce. FIRST EDITION of Robert Morres' sermons delivered as part of the Bampton Lecture series. "The Bampton Lectures at the University of Oxford, England, were founded by a bequest of John Bampton. They have taken place since 1780. Included is an extract from the last Will and Testament of the late Reverend John Bampton (d.1751), Canon of Salisbury, wherein the lectures series is established, and which started in 1779 with its inaugural lecture." "They were a series of annual lectures; since the turn of the 20th century they have typically been biennial. They continue to concentrate on Christian theological topics. The lectures are traditionally been published in book form. On a number of occasions, notably at points during the 19th century, they attracted great interest and controversy" (Wikip.). Morres' lectures center on moral philosophy, natural philosophy, Christian faith and Bible study. For example: "Reasonableness of Faith because of the Ability and Veracity of man â" these considered." Of the institution of theological learning, he addresses "Religious Establishments â" necessity of Government in general â" of ecclesiastical â" each Church independent â" subordination of ecclesiastical institutions to civil government â¦" and of Heresy: "Recapitulation â" inference â" farther remarks of Heresy â" Means and Motives of guarding against it, viz. the Scriptures â" the Duty and Happiness of man." / Robert Morres, M.A., son of a doctor, late Fellow of Brasen Nose College. "Brasenose College (BNC), officially The Principal and Scholars of the King's Hall and College of Brasenose in Oxford, is one of the constituent colleges of the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom."
