Decemnovenarianism

Decemnovenarianism is a philosophical and social critique written by Frances Power Cobbe. The book was published in 1869 and explores the concept of the ""nineteenth century"" as a distinct historical period. Cobbe argues that the values and beliefs of the nineteenth century were shaped by the Enlightenment, the Industrial Revolution, and other historical events. She also critiques the social and political systems of the time, particularly the treatment of women and the poor. Cobbe argues that society should strive for greater equality and justice, and that individuals should take responsibility for their own actions and decisions. The book is a thought-provoking and insightful analysis of the nineteenth century and its impact on modern society.THIS 44 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Studies New and Old of Ethical and Social Subjects, by Frances Power Cobbe.
