James Martineau was for more than four decades a professor in what is now Oxford's Harris Manchester College. His theology integrates the very personal in religious experience with the transcendent and seeks to infuse daily living with the sense of divinity. He retained a sense of awe which rationalism sometimes excludes, and in some ways anticipated Albert Schweitzer's ideas of reverence for life. Notably, Schweitzer also had connections with Harris Manchester.

The question of the relation in which the religions of savages stand to the great historic families of religions, has only just been opened; and not till it has been solved with some degree of certainty, will it be possible for the separate nature-religions to take their proper places in the history of religion. At present they only serve to give some idea of the religions which preceded those of civilised nations, and their description does not belong to this place. But while animistic religion is, in its nature, and even in its ideas and usages, with slight modification everywhere the same, it is necessary to point out the special causes which have led to its development among different races in such different forms and degrees. Of these the principal are (i) the different characters of these races, (2) the nature of their home and occupations, and (3) the historic relations in which some of them stood to their neighbours. The question of the relation of the religions of savages to those of the great historic families of religions, amounts briefly to this: -- Are the former entirely independent, or is there reason for regarding them as the backward and imperfectly-developed members of larger groups, to which the recognised families of religion (such as the Semitic or Indo-Germanic) belong ? There is real agreement between the civilisation and religion of the Negroes, and those of the Egyptians. Similar correspondences exist between the Eed Indians and Turani...

1900. Other volumes in this set include ISBN number(s): 0766153096. Volume 1 of 2. Introduction and Tabular Appendices.

These volumes are intended to place before English readers the principle results of modern inquiry into the composition of the first six books of the Old Testament. It is hoped that this work may show that cooperation in Biblical research is not only possible but advantageous among students of different religious communities. The one indispensable condition is a common trust that no truth can be established in any field of historical theology without cooperation.
