Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'A Defense of the Devil: The World, the Flesh and Satan Coming Into Their Own' is a provocative philosophical exploration that challenges traditional moral hierarchies and religious orthodoxies. Written during a period of intense intellectual inquiry, the work examines the historical and cultural perceptions of evil, human desire, and the material world. By reframing the concept of the 'Devil' not as a literal entity of malice but as a symbol of human nature and worldly experience, the text invites readers to reconsider the foundations of ethical conduct and social conventions.The volume features the intellectual contributions of Le Roy A. Born and C. Hartley Grattan, including the notable section 'Ideas of a Perfect Cynic.' Grattan, a prominent social critic, provides a sharp, analytical lens through which to view the rejection of sentimentality in favor of a more grounded, objective reality. This work serves as a significant representation of the early 20th-century freethought movement, advocating for a worldview that embraces the complexities of the human condition without the constraints of traditional theological dogma. It is an essential read for those interested in the history of philosophy, secularism, and the evolution of moral thought.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
