This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

(Excerpt from Bibliography and Index to the Works of Theod...)
Excerpt from Bibliography and Index to the Works of Theodore Parker The present volume is the fifteenth and concluding one of the Centenary edition of Theodore Parker's writings, whose publication was made possible by the generous gift of money for this purpose by the late John C. Haynes, a prominent merchant of Boston, and the effective cooperation of the American Unita rian Association. Mr. Haynes, who in his early life was a parishioner of Mr. Parker, was later one of the leading spirits of the Twenty - eighth Congregational Society, and took an active part in the erection of its Parker Memorial Meeting House in Boston. It is to be regretted that he did not live to behold the new edition of Parker's writings, whose publication was the crowning mark of his loyalty to the insp-irer of his early manhood, for whom he had never ceased to cherish a grateful and reverent affection. The present volume consists of an interesting report by C01. Thomas Wentworth Higginson on Theodore Parker's library, made in 1883 to the trustees of the Boston Public Library, to which Parker bequeathed his books, and here reprinted. The volume is further more furnished with a Bibliography of Parker's writ ings, and Writings about Parker, which, it is hoped, may be reasonably complete, and a full index, pre pared by Arthur A. Brooks, to the fourteen volumes of this Centenary edition. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Value of the Intellectual Life: A Discourse He was deeply interested in the political life and reform movements of his adopted country. Two of his brothers served in the Union army during the civil war, and one of them was killed on the field of battle. He himself was only restrained from a soldier's career by the necessity for one member of the family remaining at home to support it. With voice and pen he upheld the cause of human liberty and the preservation of the Union. He was especially interested in the domestic, socialand industrial emancipation and political enfranchise ment of the women of America.

Charles William Wendte was born in Boston, Massachussets, the son of Carl and Johanna (Ebeling) Wendte. His father, who emigrated to Boston in 1842 from Hanover, Germany, gained a precarious living by painting frescoes in churches. After his death in 1847 the mother supported her two sons by tutoring in German.
Wendte attended the Boston public schools, Chauncy Hall, and the gymnasium at Verden, Hanover, and in 1858 became an apprentice in the wholesale woolen house of Blakes and Kinsley. After a period of volunteer militia service he entered the Bank of California, which transferred him in 1865 to Virginia City, Nev. Early association with Theodore Parker and his later contact with King turned him to the ministry, and he went East to the Meadville Theological School, Meadville, Pa. (1866 - 67), then to the Harvard Divinity School (1868 - 69), from which he was graduated.
Threatened with tuberculosis, he went to San Francisco in 1861 and by the friendship of Thomas Starr King secured a custom-house position. Wendte became minister successively of the Fourth Unitarian Church in Chicago (1869 - 75), the Church of the Redeemer (First Unitarian) in Cincinnati, Ohio (1876 - 82), where his influence upon young William Howard Taft and Alexander Johnson, the sociologist, was decisive, and the Channing Memorial Church in Newport, R. I (1882 - 85). In 1886 he became a Unitarian missionary supervisor on the west coast, and also served as minister of the First Unitarian Church, Oakland, Cal. (1886), and of Unity Church, Los Angeles (1898). Resigning to recuperate his health, he became minister of the Theodore Parker Memorial Church in Boston (1901 - 05). In 1900 Wendte undertook, till 1920, the general secretaryship of the International Council of Liberal Religious Thinkers and Workers. In this capacity he became secretary of the foreign relations department of the American Unitarian Association (1905 - 15), meanwhile serving (1905 - 08) as minister of the First Parish, Brighton, Massachussets The first meeting of the Council (later the International Association for Liberal Christianity and Religious Freedom) was held in London (1901) attended by seven hundred delegates from over twenty liberal religious movements of the western hemisphere, and from the Brahmo-Somaj, of India. Succeeding congresses were held in Amsterdam (1903), Geneva (1905), Boston (1907), Berlin (1910), and Paris (1913). For the brilliant success of these cosmopolitan gatherings, Wendte labored indefatigably, traveling throughout Europe, as well as in Egypt, Palestine, and Turkey, meeting and conferring with liberal Protestants, Roman Catholics, Jews, Moslems, and Hindus. His enthusiasm for these ecumenical councils of rational, ethical theism was reinforced by unusual linguistic powers, great personal charm and tact, rich theological scholarship, broad tolerance, and a perfect command of executive detail. Of the proceedings and addresses by leading theological scholars and preachers of the western world, Wendte edited Freedom and Fellowship in Religion (1907), the Proceedings of the Fifth International Congress (1911), and New Pilgrimages of the Spirit (1921). Of a similar American organization, the National Federation of Religious Liberals, Wendte served as secretary from 1908 to 1920. He edited the Proceedings of the fifth congress in 1915, The Unity of the Spirit (1909), Freedom and the Churches (1913), and Religious Liberals in Council (1913). He was president (1910 - 14) of the Free Religious Association, and for it published The Next Step in Religion (1911), The Promotion of Sympathy and Goodwill (1913), and World Religion and World Brotherhood (1914). Wendte died on October 9, 1931 in Berkeley, Cal.
Wendte regarded his biography, Thomas Starr King, Patriot and Preacher (1921), as his most permanent and worthy publication, but all his literary output was of high quality. He published four popular hymnals for liberal church schools and a memoir of Charles T. Brooks, which appeared in Brooks's Poems (1885). His last book, The Transfiguration of Life (1930), fitly presents his theological convictions, which formed in general an immanental, ethical theism that he early correlated with the evolutionary hypothesis, as well as with the social progressiveness of the nineties - spiritual in purpose, ethical in method. His autobiography, The Wider Fellowship, provides a remarkably vivid and factual synopsis of American social and political history, and of worldwide religious liberalism from 1850 to 1925.
