Text

This inaugural volume of The Works of Jonathan Edwards is Edwards' major contribution to theology and stands as a leading document on Calvinist thought. Mr. Ramsey's Introduction provides a fresh analysis of Edwards theological position, includes a study of his life and the intel- lectual issues in the America of his time, and examines the problem of free will in the philosophical context of today and in connection with Leibniz, Locke, and Hume. "Ever since his own day Jonathan Edwards has been a man more talked about than read. This distinguished edition, which Paul Ramsey has so admirably inaugurated, gives him a new chance, not only to be admired afresh but to be given a seat at the symposium table. No eighteenth- century American deserves such recall more fittingly." American Literature. "If the volumes to follow adhere to the standard set by Paul Ramsey in the first, Edwards will have achieved the monument he deserves." New York Times. "It is hard to find things to criticize in this splendid edition. The editor, the committee, and the press are to be congratulated on this im- pressive first volume of the much-needed definitive and complete Edwards."
