Autor

James Edward Talmage was an esteemed English-born American scholar, scientist, and religious writer. Born on 21 September 1862, in Hungerford, Berkshire, England, and emigrating to Provo, Utah with his family in 1876, Talmage excelled early in his education, attending Brigham Young Academy and later pursuing further studies at Lehigh University and Johns Hopkins University. A polymath, Talmage was not only involved in academia but also in ecclesiastical leadership as a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church) from 1911 until his death in 1933. His contributions to the LDS Church include several doctrinal classics, but he is best known for 'Jesus the Christ - A Study According to Holy Scriptures' (1915), which has been an influential text within the church and a seminal work in its religious teachings. The book synthesizes the life and teachings of Jesus Christ based on the canon of scripture accepted by the LDS Church and was the result of a commission from the church leadership. Talmage's literary style combines a scholarly rigor appropriate to his academic background with a deeply religious fervor, reaching an audience both within and beyond his faith community. His writings demonstrated both his extensive knowledge of biblical scholarship and his commitment to his religious convictions.
