Bøger af Blaise Pascal

Created by the seventeenth-century philosopher and mathematician Pascal, the essays contained in Human Happiness are a curiously optimistic look at whether humans can ever find satisfaction and real joy in life or whether a belief in God is a wise gamble at best. Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and helped make us who we are.

""Provincial Letters"" is a book written by Blaise Pascal, a French mathematician, philosopher, and theologian. The book is a collection of eighteen letters written by Pascal under the pseudonym Louis de Montalte, which were published between 1656 and 1657. The letters were written in defense of Antoine Arnauld, a French theologian who was accused of heresy by the Jesuits, a Catholic religious order.In these letters, Pascal exposes the reasoning and morals of the Jesuits, criticizing their casuistry, or the use of ambiguous moral reasoning to justify unethical behavior. He argues that the Jesuits' teachings are a threat to the Catholic Church and to society as a whole. Pascal's writing is characterized by his wit, humor, and sarcasm, which make the letters entertaining to read.In addition to the letters, the book also includes a historical overview of the Jesuits, tracing their origins and development as a religious order. Pascal's portrayal of the Jesuits is critical, but he also acknowledges their achievements in education, science, and missionary work.Overall, ""Provincial Letters"" is a significant work of French literature and a classic of religious and philosophical writing. It provides a fascinating insight into the intellectual and moral debates of seventeenth-century France and remains relevant today as a critique of religious extremism and moral relativism.1828.
