Autorenporträt
James Edward Talmage (21 September 1862 - 27 July 1933) was an English chemist, geologist, and religious leader who served as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) Quorum of the Twelve Apostles from 1911 until his death. Talmage was a professor at Brigham Young Academy (BYA) and the University of Utah (U of U), as well as the president of the U of U and the Latter-day Saints' University. In addition to his academic career, Talmage wrote several religious publications, the most well-known of which are Jesus the Christ and Articles of Faith. Despite being published in 1915 and 1899, the volumes are still considered classics in Mormon literature. Talmage, a professor and spiritual scholar, did not believe science contradicted his faith. Talmage attempted to mediate between church leaders B.H. Roberts and Joseph Fielding Smith, who differed over evolution and the genesis of man. Talmage was involved in local political leadership in Provo as a city council member, alderman, and judge of the peace, in addition to his academic and religious commitment.
