Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Thrasymachus or the Future of Morals' is a provocative and insightful philosophical treatise by C. E. M. Joad that examines the shifting landscape of human ethics in the early twentieth century. Drawing its name from the cynical Sophist of Plato's 'Republic', the work explores the tension between traditional religious morality and the emerging secular values of the modern era. Joad argues that moral standards are often dictated by those in power, yet he also identifies a cyclical pattern in the history of human behavior and ethical rigor.
