Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.

The Bampton lectures at Oxford, founded by the bequest of John
Bampton in order to examine ideas from Christian theology, have
taken place regularly since 1780. In 1858 the philosopher Henry
Longueville Mansel delivered the set of eight lectures reissued in
this volume. Mansel expresses the view - influenced by Kant and
Hamilton - that the human mind is 'conditioned' and that human
knowledge is strictly limited to the finite. Humans cannot attain
any positive conception of the nature of the 'Absolute and Infinite
Being' with certainty. We only have an imperfect representation of
God and the divine through their analogy to finite things. And yet,
God exists. Mansel asserts that God cannot be understood by reason
but should be accepted by faith. His book ignited a bitter
controversy with the Christian socialist theologian Frederick
Maurice, and remains of interest to historians of philosophy and
theology to this day.
