Synopsis
Excerpt from A Study on Pascal: Three Lectures
The two views, when they are examined, are seen to have each its own necessary antecedents and also its own practical consequences. To believe that the way of salvation is narrow, is to believe in the depravity of the human heart. This belief leads us back to an original fall of man in which the whole human race was involved. Nor can we stop here. We are compelled to pass behind the Fall to the Divine Counsels in which it was decreed or sanctioned. Thus we are driven ultimately to the conclusion that man is not a free agent, that he is predestined to weal or woe, and that he cannot stand upright without the Divine assistance.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the intense theological debates that gripped 17th-century France, particularly the conflict between the narrow and broad interpretations of salvation, known as Jansenism and its opposition. Through examining the life of the philosopher and mathematician, Blaise Pascal, the book reveals how the religious controversies of his time led him to compose the renowned Provincial Letters. These letters, a masterpiece of dialectic irony, aimed to expose the moral laxity of the Jesuit casuists, who sought to reconcile worldly desires with Christian principles. The book not only sheds light on Pascal's profound religious views but also illuminates his unique contribution to French literature, forever etching his name in the annals of theology and philosophy. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
