Lectures on the Philosophy of Religion. Translated from the German of Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, by the Rev. E. B. Speirs, B.D., and J. Burdon Sanderson. 3 vols. (Regan Paul, Trench, and Co.)—Mr. Speirs explains that the translation is made from the second edition of 1840, a work which, as incor- porating much additional matter, differs considerably from that published in 1832 (the year after Hegel's death). He further explains the shares of himself and the late Miss J. Burdon San- 4:lerson in the translation now published. Originally undertaken by Miss Sanderson, it was carried on by her to nearly the middle of the second volume. The rest has been Mr. Speirs's work, and the whole has undergone a careful revision at his hands. What- ever we may think of Ilegel's views, they certainly obtain here an adequate representation.
