The Platonic Tradition in English Religious Thought is a book written by W. R. Inge that explores the influence of Plato's philosophy on English religious thought. Inge argues that Plato's ideas, particularly his concept of the Forms and the immortality of the soul, have played a significant role in shaping the religious beliefs of English thinkers such as Augustine, Aquinas, and the Cambridge Platonists. The book examines the ways in which these ideas have been incorporated into Christian theology, and how they have influenced debates on topics such as the nature of God, the relationship between faith and reason, and the afterlife. Inge's analysis is both historical and philosophical, drawing on a wide range of primary sources and engaging with contemporary debates in the field. The Platonic Tradition in English Religious Thought is a valuable resource for scholars and students of philosophy, theology, and intellectual history.1926. The Hulsean lectures at Cambridge 1925-1926. This short course of lectures must be taken for what it is, a plea for the recognition of a third type of Christian thought and belief, by the side of the two great types which are usually called Catholic and Protestant. It is as the religion of the Spirit that Inge pleads the cause of what he calls the Platonic tradition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
