Description
Summary:This paper is a study of the second volume of The Nature and Destiny of Man with a view to deriving Niebuhr's philosophy of history. It may be said that the one thing which Niebuhr has uppermost in mind is to set forth such a philosophy of history; we shall attempt to catch it within the scope of this paper, and having delineated the structure in its main elements, we shall criticize it from the point of view of Christian Naturalism and attempt a constructive interpretation of our own.
