The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

Janeway was born at Lilley, in Hertfordshire, the son of William Janeway, a minister of Kershall, at the end of 1636.
Christ Church.
He is listed as one of the "ejected" or "silenced" ministers by the Acting of Uniformity 1662. The first evidence that he functioned as a non-conformist preacher is from the year 1665 at the time of the Great Plague of London. He was then witness to the second great national calamity in the Great Fire of London in 1666.
In 1672 his congregation built a large meeting house for him near London at Rotherhithe, where it is said that
he had a very numerous auditory, and a great reformation was wrought amongst many.
This was actually attempted on at least two occasions, on one of which a bullet pierced his hat but missed his body. Soldiers destroyed the building in which he preached, but his congregation simply built another, larger one big enough for all those who came to hear him preach.
Janeway was afflicted with melancholy, contracted tuberculosis, and died in his 38th year. He was buried in Street Mary Aldermanbury next to his father.
The book for which Janeway is most known is A Token for Children, in which he collected personal accounts of the conversions of a number of children under his pastoral care, and published lieutenant
In the introduction, Janeway asks,
lieutenant became an effective evangelistic tool, and was the most widely read book in nurseries in England next to the Bible and Pilgrim"s Progress by John Bunyan. The New England preacher Cotton Mather regarded that book so highly that he wrote his own version of it and called it A Token for the Children of New England. Janeway also wrote "Upon Earth: Jesus, The Best Friend in the Worst Times".
Janeway’s influence on Puritan thought lasted long after his death.
Charles Haddon Spurgeon referred to Janeway’s works in his sermons on many occasions in the late 1800s.
