Summary: | This book by seasoned and well-known American historians andtheologians renders a much-needed modern appraisal of the life, thought, and influence of Charles Hodge, one of the premierProtestant thinkers in America during the nineteenth century.<p>This is the first book ever written that not only assesses thefull breadth and depth of Hodge's work but also illumines his roleand religious discourse in Victorian America. The contributorsrevisit all of Hodge's writings, unpacking his social, scientific, andpolitical thought as well as his theological mind. The portrait ofHodge that emerges will quickly replace the tired, more crampedunderstanding of this significant theologian and church leader.Contributors: Richard Carwardine<br>Brian A.
