MESSRS. T. & T. CLARK have just issued the First Volume of the great ENCYCLOPÆDIA OF RELIGION AND ETHICS. THE EDITED BY DR. JAMES HASTINGS. HE purpose of this Encyclopædia is to give a complete account of Religion and Ethics so far as they are known. It will contain articles on every separate religious belief and practice, and on every ethical and philosophical idea and custom. Persons and places that have contributed to the history of Religion and morals will also be described. The Encyclopædia will cover a distinct department of knowledge. It is the department which has always exercised the greatest influence over men's lives, and its interest at least, if not its influence, is probably greater at the present time than ever. Within the scope of "Religion and Ethics" come all the questions that are most keenly debated in PSYCHOLOGY and in SOCIALISM, while the title will be used to embrace the whole of THEOLOGY and PHILOSOPHY. Ethics and Morality will be handled as thoroughly as religion. The work will be completed in Ten Volumes of about 900 It Please ask for a full Prospectus of this monumental work. may be had from any Bookseller, or free from the Publishers, on request. T. & T.
