Charles Wesley : A Reader

$88.00

Description
Charles Wesley, perhaps best known for his hymns, “Hark! the Herald Angels Sing” and “Jesus Lover of My Soul,” was the younger brother of John Wesley and the co-founder and poet-laureate of Methodism. Although he was an important figure in the history of Protestantism, Wesley’s personal life was shrouded by a cloak of silence and much of his work went unpublished. In this illuminating reader, John Tyson has collected hymns, sermons, letters, and journal material–many rare and hitherto unknown–to chronicle the life and works of Wesley in his own words. Tyson provides an extensive biographical-theological introduction, and supplements Wesley’s collected works with interpretative and introductory notes, creating a definitive account of Wesley’s character and contribution to the Methodist heritage.
