The religious associations surrounding the Bible make it difficult
for the general reader to appreciate, in its full purity, the value
which the Scriptures bear as literature, and as an epic in no way
inferior, in cultural worth, to the greatest works of Greece and
Rome. Dealing as it does with elementary passions and principles,
the English Bible is, in the author's view, the greatest book of
all the ages. This book, first published in 1931, will be of
interest to students of literature and religious studies.

1902. The study of such an author as Dante is valuable in enabling
one to organize his knowledge and to resist the insidious evil of
reading disconnectedly many themes and writers. Dante is so rich in
suggestive symbolism that the temptation is constant to read into
his imagery meanings entirely foreign to his thought, and to
obscure his most important teachings by mingling them in a mass of
instructive but subordinate details. Both of these temptations Mr.
Dinsmore has endeavored to resist, striving honestly to interpret
Dante's conceptions, and seeking to secure clearness by disclosing
only the framework of his thought.
Aids to the Study of Dante and The Teachings of Dante.
