Between God and History: The Human Situation Exemplified in Quaker Thought and Practice: Sir Halley Stewart Trust: Publications

Autor Richard K. Ullmann
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 noi 2024
Originally published in 1959, this book was planned as a second contribution towards critique and apologetics of Quakerism, the first being a booklet called Friends and Truth published in 1956. While the author did not lose sight of that original intention, the scope of the book widened in the writing. It was hoped that it would make a contribution from the Quaker point of view, to the study of the predicament of Western man. Today it can be read in its historical context.
This book is a re-issue originally published in 1959. The language used and views portrayed are a reflection of its era and no offence is meant by the Publishers to any reader by this re-publication.

Notă biografică

Richard K. Ullmann (1904–1963) was born in Frankfurt and gained a degree in philosophy from Frankfurt University. He came to England as a refugee from Nazi oppression shortly before the outbreak of the war.

Brought up as a Lutheran, he joined the Society of Friends in 1946.

Descriere

First published in 1959, this book was planned as a second contribution towards critique and apologetics of Quakerism. Not losing sight of that intention, the scope of the book widened in the writing. It was hoped that it would make a contribution from the Quaker point of view, to the study of the predicament of Western man.
