About this Item
Description:
In-8° broché, en etat de parution non rogné, 16 pp In 1787 Barlow, Jeffersonian republican and supporter of the French Revolution, had published his hymn on the American revolution The vision of Columbus'. In 1807 he published an extended version, the Columbiad'. Barlow's religious convictions had now turned to scepticism and for that the revolutionary leader and former bishop Henri Gregoire published this open letter. Gregoire was despite his revolutionary view a devout Catholic and considered the Gospel the true fundament of a civilised society and political liberty. The cross and the Gospel, in preparing us for the happiness of eternity, have civilised the world . When public shame is extinct, do not expect to preserve the private virtues; and when religion is publicly insulted, it is a wound to morality, a national calamity . The christian religion . well understood and rightly practised . is the most certain guarantee of the purity of public and private manners.'. Seller Inventory # JQD1488
