The Silliman Memorial lectures series has been published by Yale University from 1901. The lectures were established by the University on the foundation of a legacy of $80,000, left in 1883 in memory of Mrs. Hepsa Ely Silliman..〔 〕 Both Benjamin Silliman, the son of Gold Selleck Silliman, and Benjamin Silliman, Jr. had been professors at Yale. The lectures are designed to illustrate the presence and providence, the wisdom and goodness of God, as manifested in the natural and moral world. The testator's belief was that any orderly presentation of the facts of nature or history contributed to the foundation's purpose more effectively than any attempt to emphasize the elements of doctrine or creed; and he therefore provided that lectures on dogmatic or polemical theology should be excluded from its scope, and that instead the subjects should be selected from the domains of natural science and history, with special prominence given to astronomy, chemistry, geology, and anatomy.〔see preface p. v of 〕 ==Lecturers (partial list)== * 1902-03 Thomson, Joseph John - ''Electricity and Matter'' (1911) * 1903-04 Sherrington, Charles Scott - ''The Integrative Action of the Nervous System'' (1911) * 1904-05 Rutherford, Ernest - ''Radioactive Transformations'' (1911) * 1905-06 Omitted * 1906-07 Nernst, Walter - ''Experimental and Theoretical Applications of Thermodynamics to Chemistry'' (1911, republished 1913) * 1907-08 Bateson, William - ''Problems of Genetics'' (1979) * 1908-09 Penck, Albrecht * 1909-10 Campbell, William Wallace - ''Stellar Motions'' (1913) * 1910-11 Arrhenius, Svante August - ''Theories of Solutions'' (1912) * 1911-12 Verworn, Max - ''Irritability'' (1913) * 1912-13 Osler, William - ''The Evolution of Modern Medicine'' (1921) * 1913-14 Iddings, Joseph Paxson et al - ''The Problem of Volcanism'' (1914) * 1913-14 Lindgren, Waldemar et al - ''Problems of American Geology'' (1915) * 1914-16 Omitted * 1916-17 Haldane, John Scott - ''Organism and Environment as Illustrated by the Physiology of Breathing Respiration'' (1917) * 1917-18 Dana, Barrell et al - ''A Century of Science in America (Dana Commemorative Lectures)'' (1922) * 1918-19 Omitted * 1919-20 Hadamard, Jacques Solomon - ''Lecture on Cauchy's Problem in Linear Partial Differential Equations'' (1923) * 1920-21 Cumont, Franz - ''After Life in Roman Paganism'' (1922) * 1920-21 Rettger, Leo Frederick - ''A Treatise on the Transformation of the Intestinal Flora with Special Reference to the Implantation of Bacillus Acidophillus'' (1921) * 1921-22 von Pirquet, Clemens * 1922-23 Krogh, August - ''The Anatomy and Physiology of Capillaries'' (1921, rev. ed. 1927) * 1923-24 Bohr, Niels * 1924-25 Morgan, Thomas Hunt - ''The Theory of the Gene'' (1926) * 1925-26 Lewis, Gilbert Newton - ''The Anatomy of Science'' (1925) * 1926-27 Andrews, Ernest Clayton * 1927-28 Henderson, Lawrence Joseph - ''Blood: A Study in General Physiology'' (1928) * 1928-30 Omitted * 1930-31 Winland, Heinrich Otto - ''On the Mechanism of Oxidation'' (1932) * 1931-32 Richardson, Owen Willans - ''Molecular Hydrogen and its Spectrum'' (1934) * 1932-33 Omitted * 1933-34 Daly, Reginald Aldworth - ''The Changing World of the Ice Age'' (1934) * 1934-35 Spemann, Hans - ''Induction'' (1938) * 1935-36 Hubble, Edwin Powell - ''The Realm of the Nebulae'' (1936, repub. 1982) * 1936-37 Watson, David M.
