4447 FIELD (Richard, D.D. Dean of Gloucester) OF THE CHURCH, FIVE BOOKS. A new Edition, with the Quotations at full length, and Notes, by the Rev. John S. Brewer, M.A. 3 vols. 8vo, cloth, 21. 5s. John Bohn, 1843 the same, 3 vols. 8vo, fine papeR (only 50 copies printed) cloth, 31. 12s. ib. 1843

4447*.

The first volume is now ready. The second and third will appear shortly. As Dr. Field's Book of the Church has become exceedingly rare, and, though much in request, is not attainable at any price, the Publisher, at the suggestion of several eminent clergymen, has undertaken a new edition of this very valuable work. In order to render it worthy of attention, and far superior to all preceding ones, the Rev. J. S. Brewer (a gentleman whose well-known diligence and accuracy guarantee its being executed in the best manner) has kindly offered his services to collate the various editions, to verify all the references, and to supply additional notes where necessary. He has likewise determined, on account of the extreme rarity of many of the authors cited by Dr. Field, to give his quotations at full length at the bottom of each page; and at the end of every chapter a brief list of writers, especially of English Divines, who have treated on the same subject subsequently: thus rendering the work more valuable as a TEXT BOOK OF THEOLOGY.

The rarity of this masterpiece of one of our most eminent divines having prevented its being so universally known as it ought to be, the Publisher may be pardoned for citing a few among the numerous commendations in its favour.

Coleridge, the poet, in a letter to his son the Rev. Derwent Coleridge, emphatically writes: "THIS ONE VOLUME, THOROUGHLY UNDERSTOOD AND APPROPRIATED, WILL PLACE YOU IN THE HIGHEST RANK OF DOCTRINAL CHURCH-OF-ENGLAND DIVINES, AND OF NO MEAN RANK AS A TRUE DocTRINAL CHURCH HISTORIAN."

King James I. delighted to discourse with Field on points of divinity, and when he first preached before him, said: "Is his name Field? This is the FIELD for God to dwell in." On hearing of his death, the King expressed regret, and added, I should have done more for that man!"

[ocr errors]

Fuller, in the same punning age, calls him" that learned divine, whose memory smelleth like a FIELD which the Lord hath blessed:" and Anthony a Wood tells us he was esteemed " the best disputant in the schools."

"Field was well skilled in school divinity, and a frequent preacher while he lived in Oxfordshire, and is said to have been very instrumental in preventing the increase of non-conformity in the university."-Gough.

"When he first set about writing his book OF THE CHURCH,' his old acquaintance, Dr. Kettle, dissuaded him, telling him that when once he was engaged in controversy he would never live quietly, but be continually troubled with answers and replies. To this Field answered, 'I will so write that they shall have no great mind to answer me;' which proved to be nearly the case, as his main arguments were never refuted."-Chalmers.

Heylin, in his Life of Laud, calls him "the reverend right learned Dr. Field, whose excellent works will keep his name alive to succeeding ages." 4448 FIELDING's (Henry) WORKS, with an Essay on his Life and Genius, by Arthur Murphy. Edited by Alex. Chalmers ; 10 vols. 8vo, last genuine edition (published at 41. 10s.) bds. 21. 8s.

"Of all the works of imagination to which English genius has given origin, the writings of Henry Fielding are perhaps most decidedly and exclusively her own. The persons of his story live in England, travel in England, quarrel and fight in England; and scarce an incident occurs, without its being marked by something which could not well have happened in any other country. In strong and national humour, and forcible yet natural exhibition of character, the Father of the English Novel remains unap. proached as yet, even by his successful followers."-Sir Walter Scott.
