Lectures on Theology by Reverend John Pye Smith, 1830
Scope and Contents
Lecture notes written by Josephus Afranius Burrowes, student at Homerton Academy (c.1830-1836) from Lectures on Theology, prepared by Congregationalist Minisiter Reverend John Pye Smith (c.1820). Pye Smith was a Theological Tutor at Homerton for forty-five years between 1805/1806 and 1850, effectively acting as Principal for this period. He initially joined Homerton, aged thirty, in 1800/1801 as a classical and science tutor. One of Pye's key interests was in reconciling geological sciences with the bible and, at Homerton, his lectures prepared young, male Protestant dissenters for the ministry.
