On Some Influences Of Christianity Upon National Character: Three Lectures is a book written by Richard William Church and published in 1873. The book consists of three lectures that explore the impact of Christianity on the national character of various countries throughout history. The first lecture focuses on the influence of Christianity on the character of the ancient Greeks and Romans. Church argues that while the Greeks and Romans were great civilizations, they lacked the moral and spiritual values that Christianity brought to Europe. He contends that Christianity helped to shape the character of the European nations that followed, including England, France, and Germany.The second lecture examines the influence of Christianity on the character of the English people. Church argues that Christianity played a significant role in shaping the English character, particularly in the areas of individualism, freedom, and respect for law and order. He also discusses the impact of the Protestant Reformation on English society.The third and final lecture explores the influence of Christianity on the character of the French people. Church argues that while France was historically a Catholic country, the French Revolution led to a rejection of Christianity and a decline in moral values. He contends that France needs to rediscover its Christian heritage in order to regain its national character and moral strength.Overall, On Some Influences Of Christianity Upon National Character: Three Lectures is a thought-provoking book that examines the impact of Christianity on the national character of different countries. Church's insights and observations are still relevant today, making this book a valuable read for anyone interested in the history of Christianity and its impact on society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
