This volume represents Renan's Hibbert Lectures in 1880. It is only in the earlier part of the third century that the Greek mind, in the persons of Clement of Alexandria and of Origen, really laid hold of Christianity. I hope to prove to you that in the second century Rome exercised a decisive influence on the Church of Jesus. --from the first lecture Contents 1. In What Sense Is Christianity the Work of Rome? 2. The Legend of the Roman Church: Peter and Paul 3. Rome, the Centre of Growing Ecclesiastical Authority 4. Rome, the Capital of Catholicism

The Origin and Development of the Moral Ideas is a book by а philosopher Edvard Westermarck. It is one of his main works and a monumental classics study in its field. At the beginning of this book, Westermarck asks why different cultures have different moral views. To answer this question, he decided to acquire first-hand knowledge of the folklore of a non-European people. Thus, he spent four years in Morocco collecting anthropological data, familiarizing himself with the native way of thinking, and understanding local customs. In the result he concluded, he concluded that there is a close connection between moral opinions and religious beliefs.
