English author and philosopher, Bishop Thomas Burgess lived from
1756 to 1837. His early career was concerned with advocating for
the emancipation of slaves and evangelistic work among the poor. In
1803, he was appointed Bishop of St David's where he remained for
the next twenty years, and in that position he founded and
liberally endowed St. David's College, now the University of Wales,
Lampeter. This book gathers together essays that use Bishop
Burgess' life as a starting point to uncover the links between the
academic, religious and social cultures of Britain, Europe and
North America in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The
essays in the volume comprise papers read at two conferences in
2003 and the St David's Day lecture delivered at Lampeter in 2004.
