Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Symbolism, or Exposition of the Doctrinal Differences Between Catholics and Protestants, Vol. 1: As Evidenced by Their Symbolical Writings
Every book has a two-fold history a history before, and a history after its publication. The first can be described only by the author himself; and respecting this, the public imposes on him the duty to make no mystery, and, accordingly, to relate to it partly the outward occasions that induced him to undertake the composition of his work; and partly to assign the more intrinsic reasons, by which he was determined to the undertaking. Hereupon I have now to communicate to the indulgent reader the following remarks.
