James Butler

    James Davie Butler fue un erudito y clérigo de amplios conocimientos cuyos intereses desafiaron la especialización estrecha. Despreciaba el enfoque aislado, dedicándose en cambio a una amplia gama de temas que se manifestaron en sus diversos escritos. Como popular conferenciante, sus extensos viajes ampliaron sus horizontes intelectuales. Sus contribuciones literarias abarcaron artículos para revistas destacadas y literatura promocional destinada a fomentar la inmigración. Butler encarnó al erudito de la vieja escuela, cuya curiosidad y pasión por el conocimiento moldearon su extensa obra.
