STANDARD WORKS Uniform with this Volume. WHISTON'S JOSEPHUS. PLUTARCH'S LIVES. HOLMES'S BREAKFAST-TABLE SERIES. DANTE'S DIVINE COMEDY, TRANSLATED BY LONGFELLOW. DISRAELI'S CURIOSITIES OF LITERATURE. AMENITIES OF LITERATURE. MISCELLANIES OF LITERATURE. IN the present Edition of this Work, a few passages, which appear to have been misappréhended, have been more fully developed; and a few notes subjoined, either explanatory, or containing further information on some interesting points of enquiry. Among the writers, whose opinions the Author has cited in the Preface to the Third Volume,* as similar to his own, the great name of Paley has been omitted. The chapter in his popular and generally received work, "The Evidences of Christianity," (part iii. ch. 3,) on the connexion of Christianity with the Jewish History, is worthy the attention of all who exercise their reason on such subjects. |
