Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures Essays of William Robertson Smith The present volume contains a selection from the writings of Professor Robertson Smith which are either wholly unpublished or have not yet been collected in book-form. It has not been found possible within the compass even of a large volume to give more than a strictly limited selection from the manuscript material in the hands of the editors, and much that in their Opinion is of considerable interest and value must be withheld, at any rate for the present. Their main purpose in compiling this volume has been to provide a supplement to Professor Smith's Life and to furnish a series of illustrative documents possessing an intrinsic interest of their own, but also valuable as throw ing light on the development of his mind and of his attitude towards the theological controversies and the scientific inquiries which were the chief concern of his life.
