Excerpt from The Resurrection of Christ: A Series of Discourses This publication is intended mainly as, a memorial to the numerous alumni of Union College, or to bring vividly before their minds the remembrance of one greatly vener ated and beloved. The majority of them, doubtless, yet recall his noble form, and not a few are still living whose memories go back to the days of his prime, when he was regarded as one of the chief pulpit grators of our land. We think that this lamwill read these sermons with special interest. For them they will revive a fading, yet still precious reminiscence, bringing up a most life-like picture of the man as he once stood before them in the pulpit. It will help them to see again that impressive action, so calm and chastened, yet so powerful; to hear again the tones of that voice, as clear in its solemn whis per as in its loudest utterances. They will read them to greater effect, and with a more equitable criticism, because they can so readily fill up from such remembrance what the mere printed page must fail to convey. Dr. Nott was pre-eminently an impassioned preacher, a true preacher in distinction from the logical casuist or the methodical didactic lecturer, - a preacher in the old sense of the term, that of nkpuf, proeco, herald, proclaimer, the voice of one crying in the wilderness, or at the city gates, - calling aloud to men, demanding their atten tion to some great fact, and setting it forth in language exuberant and superlative, indeed, yet most natural when regarded as owing from an over-welling fountain of emo tion. Some might charge him with a Ciceronian fulness. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
