Charles Wesley is widely remembered as a significant hymn-writer, especially among Methodists, but he is not often regarded either as a major poet or as an important theologian. He quite often takes second place to his more famous elder brother, John, and frequently disappears in the face of John's role as leader of "the people called Methodists." This volume attempts to rectify these unfortunate misconceptions by demonstrating that Charles Wesley is a figure of primary literary significance in the history of English religious poetry. It also seeks to show that Charles Wesley was a theologian of considerable depth and creativity, and to place his work in the context of a variety of church traditions. The essays in this volume originated in papers presented to the Charles Wesley Publication Colloquium, held at the Center of Theological Inquiry in Princeton, NJ, in the fall of 1989.

This is Volume II of a three-volume edition of the unpublished poetry of Charles Wesley. By most estimates, Charles Wesley wrote about 9,000 hymns and poems. Some 4,600 of these hymns and poems were published during his lifetime, and an additional 3,100 were published posthumously. Some 1,300 will appear for the first time in these volumes. The Unpublished Poetry of Charles Wesley thus represents the first major collection of his verse to be published since George Osborn's 13 volume edition of the Poetical Works of John Wesley London, (1868-1872). The three volumes in this series will include all of Charles Wesley's known unpublished poems, as well as those which do not appear in full in Osborn's edition or in subsequent collections of Wesley's verse. These volumes will constitute an invaluable resource for all college, university, and theological school libraries, for students and teachers of theology, church history, and English literature, and for the devotional life and personal faith of Christians across the world.

Charles Wesley (1707-1788) is widely recognized as one of the greatest writers of the English hymn. The importance of Charles, however, extends well beyond his undoubted poetic abilities, for he is a figure of central importance in the context of the birth and early growth of Methodism, amovement which today has a worldwide presence. It was Charles and not John who first started the Oxford 'Holy Club' from which the ethos and structures of organised Methodism were eventually to emerge. It was Charles rather than John who first experienced the 'strange warming of the heart' thatcharacterised the experience of many eighteenth-century evangelicals; and in the early years it was Charles no less than John who sought to spread, mainly through his preaching, the evangelical message across England, Wales, and Ireland. Eye witness testimony suggests that Charles was a powerfuland effective preacher whose homiletic work and skill did much to establish and further the early Methodist cause.In this book this other side of Charles Wesley is brought clearly into focus through the publication, for the first time, of all of the known Charles Wesley sermon texts. In the four substantial introductory chapters a case is made for the inclusion of the 23 sermons here presented and there isdiscussion also of the significant text-critical problems that have been negotiated in the production of this volume. Other chapters present a summary of Charles's life and preaching career and seek to show by example how the sermons, no less than the hymns, are significant vehicles for thetransmission of Charles's message. This book hence makes a plea for a reassessment of the place of Charles Wesley in English Church history and argues that he deserves to be recognised as more than just 'The Sweet Singer of Methodism'.

In the heroic days of the 18th century revival in Britain, Charles Wesley, the supreme poet of Christian experience, was a worthy third to George Whitefield and his own elder brother John. Arnold Dallimore understands Charles well, and tells his story inspiringly.
