Outlines of the History of Religion to the Spread of the Universal Religions

About The Book -: The time for writing an elaborate History of Religion, even of Religions, has not yet come. Not a few special investigations must be instituted, not a few difficult questions elucidated, before anything like this can be done. But it is useful, even necessary, from time to time to sum up the amount of certain knowledge, gathered by the researched of several years, and sketch, be it here and there with an uncertain hand, the draught of what may at some time become a living picture. So I have narrated the History of Religion “till the spread of the universal religions,” of Buddhism in Eastern, Islam in Western Asia, and of Christianity in the Roman Empire. As Buddhism only reigned supreme in Hindostan and Dekhan now and then for while, and was finally driven out from both parts of the Indian peninsula, with the sole exception of Ceylon. About the Author -: Cornelis Petrus Tiele (1830 –1902) was a Dutch theologian and scholar of religions. Tiele was born at Leiden. He was educated at Amsterdam, first studying at the Athenaeum Illustre, as the communal high school of the capital was then named, and afterwards at the seminary of the Remonstrant Brotherhood. He was destined for the pastorate in his own brotherhood. After steadily declining for a considerable period, this had increased its influence in the second half of the 19th century by widening the tenets of the Dutch Methodists, which had caused many of the liberal clergy among the Lutherans and Calvinists to go over to the Remonstrants. Tiele had liberal religious views himself, which he early enunciated from the pulpit, as Remonstrant pastor of Moordrecht (1853) and at Rotterdam (1856). Upon the removal of the seminary of the brotherhood from Amsterdam to Leiden in 1873, Tiele was appointed one of its leading professors. Joseph Estlin Carpenter (1844 –1927) was an English Unitarian minister, the principal of Manchester College, Oxford.He was an expert in Sanskrit and a pioneer in the study of comparative religion. Carpenter was educated at University College School, London, and the University of London, where he read mental and moral philosophy. He was described in the Encyclopedia Americana as an important "Sanskrit scholar and Biblical critic". He was translated Outlines of the History of Religion to the Spread of the Universal Religion (1888).
