'Love with the urge in it' For forty years William Millman, known in Congo as 'Mokili', served the people of the Yakusu area amid trials and joys, disease, sadness, bereavements, failures, adventures, achievements, fun, laughter, and lifelong friendships. Missionary, teacher, self-taught medical practitioner, administrator of a rapidly expanding Mission, project manager and builder of houses, schools and a vast New Church that still survives today, Mokili devoted his life to his faith and to the people of Congo he had come to love. Mokili's daughter, Litwasi, was born in the Congo but was brought home in 1912 at the age of three to live with foster parents in Rochdale. In 1937 she married James, known as Jim, Butterworth. Over the next twenty years Jim, a committed Christian and theologian, would develop a very deep respect for his wife's parents and a strong mutual friendship developed. After Mokili's death in 1956 Jim determined that Mokili's immense achievements should be recorded forever and he commenced the intense research of this biography. In 1957 Litwasi and Jim journeyed to Yakusu to visit Litwasi's birth place and the scene of her parents' life work. Here they met Lititiyo whom Mokili had first met carrying home a human leg to eat. This young chief's son had been converted by Mokili and had become a Christian pastor. As Mokili's friend and colleague for over thirty years, Lititiyo was well suited to sum up for Litwasi and Jim the essence of Mokili's service to the people of the Congo: 'Love with the urge in it'

The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars.The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century.++++The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.
