Aggiungi al carrelloBuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Pascal's Pensées is Blaise Pascal's unfinished Christian apologetic masterpiece, a searching work of faith, reason, scepticism, human misery, and divine grace. Left in fragments at Pascal's death and first published posthumously, the book gathers notes intended for a defence of Christianity, but its power lies as much in its incompleteness as in its argument. Pascal writes as mathematician, philosopher, moral psychologist, and believer, confronting the greatness and wretchedness of human beings, the limits of reason, the need for grace, and the hiddenness of God.The work is famous for 'Pascal's wager,' but its lasting importance extends far beyond that single argument. Pascal's reflections move through pride, diversion, mortality, habit, justice, scepticism, the heart, faith, and the mystery of Christ, producing one of the most intense works of Christian thought in European literature. Pensées is not a systematic theology, nor merely a collection of religious aphorisms; it is a spiritual and philosophical inquiry into why human beings evade themselves, why reason alone cannot save them, and why Christianity speaks to both human dignity and human ruin.For readers of Christian classics, religious philosophy, Catholic thought, apologetics, French literature, and seventeenth-century moral reflection, Pascal's Pensées remains essential: severe, brilliant, unfinished, and still capable of unsettling the modern reader.
