The book Life of John Duncan by David Brown, published in 1872, is a biographical account of the Scottish theologian and philosopher, John Duncan. The book provides a detailed description of Duncan's life, from his childhood in Dundee to his studies at the University of Edinburgh and his eventual appointment as Professor of Hebrew and Oriental Languages at New College in Edinburgh.The author describes Duncan's religious and philosophical beliefs, which were heavily influenced by his study of Hebrew and the Bible. Duncan was a devout Christian who believed in the importance of spiritual transformation and the pursuit of truth. He was also deeply interested in the philosophy of Immanuel Kant and the German Idealists, and sought to reconcile their ideas with his own Christian faith.The book also explores Duncan's personal life, including his relationships with his family, friends, and colleagues. Despite his intellectual pursuits, Duncan was known for his humility and kindness, and was deeply respected by those who knew him.Overall, Life of John Duncan is a fascinating portrait of a brilliant thinker and devout Christian, whose life and work continue to inspire scholars and theologians to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
