Memoir of Rev. Nathan W. Fiske, Professor of Intellectual and Moral Philosophy in Amherst College: Together With Selections From His Sermons and Other Writings (Classic Reprint)
Description:Excerpt from Memoir of Rev. Nathan W. Fiske, Professor of Intellectual and Moral Philosophy in Amherst College Having drawn up as condensed a Memoir of my lamented friend and former associate as I could, in justice to his talents and virtues, and made such selections from his sermons and other writings, as I thought would give the truest portrait, of his intellect and his heart and be most acceptable to his numerous acquaintances, especially to the many hundreds of graduates who were blessed with his instructions in the class room, and heard his discourses in the College Chapel; I now submit the volume to the candid judgment of an enlightened public. It is put forth, under the unavoidable disadvantages of lacking the revision and supervision of the author. Not one of the sermons which it contains, was ever printed till now, and not one of them, I presume, was considered by him, as prepared for the press. Had they come out in his lifetime and under his own critical eye, they might, in some respects, have received a finish, which posthumous editorship cannot give them. But I will venture to say, that very few manuscripts, not revised and intended for publication, can be found among the papers of a deceased scholar of the highest reputation, needing less revision than those of Professor Fiske.
