چکیده
Shailer Mathews (1863-1941) was the leading member of what is known as the Chicago School of Theol~gy.~ He was reared in a strict Puritan environment but when he went to college (1880-1884) he was influenced by Darwin, Huxley, and Spencer. Although some of his contemporaries were abandoning their evangelical affiliations, Mathews remained within the evangelical group; but "it led to an attitude of mind which was sensitive to theological adjustment." 3 He came to Chicago in 1894 and after serving as Associate Professor of NT History (1894-x8g7), Professor of NT History (1897-1905)) Professor of Systematic Theology (1905-1go6), and Professor of Historical and Comparative Theology (1906-1gz6), he became Dean of the Divinity School.
