Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a collection of sermons by Jonathan Swift, an Irish writer and clergyman best known for his satirical prose. The sermons offer a glimpse into Swiftâs religious beliefs and his views on morality and human nature. He argues that true virtue can only be found in a conscience guided by religion and that principles such as moral honesty and honor are insufficient guides for ethical behavior. Swift explores the weaknesses and limitations of these false principles, providing insightful and thought-provoking commentary on the nature of morality and the importance of religious faith in shaping human conduct.
