Autorenporträt
James Morris Whiton (1831-1910) was a notable American theologian and author, whose contributions to the study of religion and the supernatural were widely recognized in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Whiton graduated from Yale College in 1853 and from Andover Theological Seminary in 1856. His scholarly pursuit was evident in his vocation as a pastor and later as a lecturer on ecclesiastical history and as an editor for several religious periodicals. His literary style often reflected a thoughtful engagement with the mysteries of faith, balancing rational inquiry with a reverence for the unknown and mystical aspects of religious experience. Whiton's 'Miracles and Supernatural Religion' is an exploration of the phenomenon of miracles and their role within the context of religious belief, taking a critical stance on the conventional interpretations of these events. Whiton's approach to theology and the supernatural was marked by a progressive attitude, seeking to align religious thought with the advancing scientific understanding of his time. His work remains an important part of theological discourse, particularly for those interested in the intersection between religion and a more modern, critical worldview.
