Selections from The Thoughts, Paperback / softback Book

Selections from The Thoughts Paperback / softback

Part of the Crofts Classics series

Paperback / softback

Available to Order - This title is available to order, with delivery expected within 2 weeks

Description

Included in this volume are fourteen of the fragments intended for Pascal's Jansenist-inspired defense of the Christian religion.

Using the Chevalier edition, these are grouped to present a logical development of three themes, "The State of Man in Ignorance of God," "The Wager," and "The Christian Life." This translation closely follows the French text (cross-referenced with the paragraph numbers of the Brunschvicg edition) and does not conceal the fragmentary style of the original.

Translated and edited by Arthur H. Beattie, this volume also contains an introduction, a list of principal dates in the life of Pascal, and a bibliography.
