  1. Part Fourteen of Fourteen. Containing His Theological, Polemical, and Critical Writings, Sermons, Speeches, and Addresses, and Literary Miscellanies. Theodore Parker was a preacher, lecturer, and writer, a public intellectual, and a religious and social reformer. He played a major role in moving Unitarianism away from being a Bible-based faith, and he established a precedent for clerical activism that has inspired generations of liberal religious leaders. Although ranked with William Ellery Channing as the most important and influential Unitarian minister of the nineteenth century, he was an extremely controversial figure (he was active in the antislavery movement) in his own day and his legacy to Unitarian Universalism remains contested. The Contents are divided into the following groups: The Material World and Man’ Relation Thereto; The Nature of Man; Traits and Illustrations of Human Character and Conduct; Phases of Domestic Life; Education; Human Institutions and National Life; The Power and Endurance of What Is Noblest in Man; Human Progress; Jesus of Nazareth; and Man in His Religious Aspects.
