Princeton Theological Seminary by Joseph H. Dulles Pdf

Excerpt from Princeton Theological Seminary: Biographical Catalogue, 1909 Another more important change will be noticed. The C'atalogue is that of 1894 revised and brought to date, with one marked difference. The students are no longer classified by the year of matriculation, whether belonging to one class or another; but are arranged in their proper classes. It is believed that this change will be welcomed by all former students. It has necessitated an entire recasting of the Catalogue, and in the earlier years has been attended with much difficulty. Indeed, with the first few classes it has been impossible to make an accurate classification, there being no record as to which class a student joined on entering the Seminary. The first published list of the students in the three classes, as far as known, is dated January, 1821. In the present Catalogue the first class is given as that of 1815, although in one instance the student might, perhaps, be given more properly as of 1813 or 1814. The classes have been divided into two parts, those who completed the full course and received a certificate of graduation, and those who did not. There was difficulty here in the earliest years. The first rule for the granting of such certificates after three years and on examina tion was made by the General Assembly of 1819. The Catalogue will show why it was that the General Assembly so often complained of the fact that so many students failed to complete their full course in the Seminary. The Special Students have been given after the others and listed by the year Of matriculation, as they Were not regular members of any particular class. For the first time, all those who came to Princeton Seminary for graduate courses only have been included in the Catalogue, and are to be found at the close of the volume, classified by the year of matricula tion. A list of Fellows and of the recipients of the degree of Bachelor of Divinity is also given. A more compact system of abbreviations has been adopted. These, for the most part, will explain themselves. A full list, with explana tions, is given at the end Of the Catalogue. A new feature is an index of Directors, Trustees, Faculty and Lecturers, which precedes the gen eral index of the students.

Princeton in the Nation's Service by Paul Charles Kemeny Pdf

This book argues against the conventional idea that Protestantism effectively ceased to play an important role in American higher education around the end of the nineteenth century. Choosing Princeton as an example, P. C. Kemeny shows that Protestantism was not abandoned but rather modified to conform to the educational values and intellectual standards of the modern university. Drawing upon a wealth of neglected primary sources, such as correspondence, diaries, lecture notes, and publications and papers of presidents, professors, students, and trustees, the author sheds new light upon the role of religion in higher education.

Process and Providence by Bradley J. Gundlach Pdf

Charles Hodge, James McCosh, B. B. Warfield -- these leading professors at Princeton College and Seminary in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries are famous for their orthodox Protestant positions on the doctrine of evolution. In this book Bradley Gundlach explores the surprisingly positive embrace of developmental views by the whole community of thinkers at old Princeton, showing how they embraced the development not only of the cosmos and life-forms but also of Scripture and the history of doctrine, even as they defended their historic Christian creed. Decrying an intellectual world gone “evolution-mad,” the old Princetonians nevertheless welcomed evolution “properly limited and explained.” Rejecting historicism and Darwinism, they affirmed developmentalism and certain non-Darwinian evolutionary theories, finding process over time through the agency of second causes — God’s providential rule in the world -- both enlightening and polemically useful. They also took care to identify the pernicious causes and effects of antisupernatural evolutionisms. By the 1920s their nuanced distinctions, together with their advocacy of both biblical inerrancy and modern science, were overwhelmed by the brewing fundamentalist controversy. From the first American review of the pre-Darwinian Vestiges of the Natural History of Creation to the Scopes Trial and the forced reorganization of Princeton Seminary in 1929, Process and Providence reliably portrays the preeminent conservative Protestants in America as they defined, contested, and answered -- precisely and incisively -- the many facets of the evolution question.

Dictionary of Early American Philosophers by John R. Shook Pdf

The Dictionary of Early American Philosophers, which contains over 400 entries by nearly 300 authors, provides an account of philosophical thought in the United States and Canada between 1600 and 1860. The label of "philosopher" has been broadly applied in this Dictionary to intellectuals who have made philosophical contributions regardless of academic career or professional title. Most figures were not academic philosophers, as few such positions existed then, but they did work on philosophical issues and explored philosophical questions involved in such fields as pedagogy, rhetoric, the arts, history, politics, economics, sociology, psychology, medicine, anthropology, religion, metaphysics, and the natural sciences. Each entry begins with biographical and career information, and continues with a discussion of the subject's writings, teaching, and thought. A cross-referencing system refers the reader to other entries. The concluding bibliography lists significant publications by the subject, posthumous editions and collected works, and further reading about the subject.

Princeton Seminary in American Religion and Culture by James H. Moorhead Pdf

The story of Princeton Theological Seminary, the Presbyterian Church's first seminary in America, begins in 1812, shortly after the United States had entered into its second war against Great Britain. Princeton went on to become a model of American theological education, setting the standard for subsequent seminaries and other religious higher education institutions. Princeton's story is uniquely intertwined with American religious and cultural history, the history of theological education, the Presbyterian church, and conceptions of ministry in general. Thus, this volume will interest not only those with links to Princeton but also historians of religion, Presbyterians, leaders within seminaries and Christian colleges, and all who are interested in the history of Christian thought in America.
