Tim James’ Account of ‘THE ORIGINAL VISION’, by Edward Robinson, and reflections arising from it
When I read a new book it usually happens because my interest is kindled by another source of information, a friend , another book, an article so let’s look at what John H Westerhoff, 111 says in his forward to the American edition of ‘The Original Vision’ by Edward Robinson –
‘You are about to read a rare book. If you care about religious education it may be among the most important you will ever read.’
– this from a Professor of Religious Education at Duke University Divinity School.
In his forward to the first edition Sir Alistair Hardy says –
‘This book provides the material for making the spiritual side of man real and vital…It does not deal with the religion of institutions or of theologies, but with the fundamental part of man’s nature, which is especially revealed in the imaginative vision of the young’.
