Notebooks, 1839-1841.

This collection consists of two volumes of notes that Warren kept while a student at Yale Divinity School from 1839 to 1841. It includes five of Nathaniel Taylor's lectures: Mental Philosophy, Moral Philosophy, Moral Government, Moral Theology, and Revealed Theology. Each of these lectures has a synopsis, though the synopsis for Revealed Theology is incomplete. Volume I is indexed. There are also lectures by other Divinity School professors, including Eleazar Thompson Fitch (1791-1871), Chauncey Allen Goodrich (1790-1860), and Josiah Willard Gibbs (1790-1861). Furthermore, there is a lecture by Edward Meyrick Goulburn (1818-1897), an English theologian, and an abstract of an article entitled "A Classification of the Religions of the World." The lectures were apparently copied in Warren's notebook at a later date.

2 v. ; octavo.

For more than a century, theological instruction was conducted by Yale's president or by the Professor of Divinity, a position established by Thomas Clap in 1746. During these years, however, Yale did not have a formally established Divinity School. The college began to feel the lack of a separately established department in the beginning of the nineteenth century as more New England colleges--such as Williams, Middlebury, Union, and Hamilton--began to draw students to their seminar...
