ABSTRACT
From Fortnightly Review, January, 1885, new series xxxvii, 11–25. Tulloch (1823–86), Principal of St Mary’s College, St Andrew’s, was an eminent member of the Church of Scotland and a prolific author of books and essays on religious topics. His enthusiasm for German thought and for Neoplatonism was unusual. This essay seems to have been occasioned by H.D. Traill’s Coleridge (1884), Chapter xii of which quotes at length from Carlyle’s Life of Sterling to which Tulloch refers at the beginning and end of his essay.
