Sinopsis

The Lessons of the Ages is a book written by Theodore Parker and first published in 1882. Parker was an American transcendentalist and reformer who was known for his progressive views on religion, social justice, and abolitionism. In this book, Parker reflects on the lessons that can be learned from history and the great thinkers of the past. He argues that these lessons are still relevant and important for contemporary society and that they can help us to understand the challenges we face today. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different theme, such as the nature of God, the importance of morality, and the role of religion in society. Throughout the book, Parker draws on a wide range of sources, including the Bible, ancient Greek and Roman philosophy, and the works of modern thinkers such as Ralph Waldo Emerson. The Lessons of the Ages is a thought-provoking and insightful work that continues to be studied and discussed by scholars and readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Reseña del editor

And through much cunning and fine art, Said: Come with me, the way seems fair, sx$ We ll walk along, a loving pair. And give ourselves to dutys call, Not askingS elf or love at all, But simply say in God we trust. Follow what will, come what must. Our standard high, our faith supreme, Humanity the living stream That we must better if we can, By lending will to heart and hand. Unfurl our banner for the right. The only power that giveth might; Step down, if need be to secure The gem called Charity, whose birth is pure, And greater than a diaden To crown the hearts of living men. To angels help we will give heed, Asking whenever much in need, And if the way seems filled with doubt We ll never stop and turn about, But bravely on, the uphill side Oft times presents the loveliest ride.
