The True Intellectual System of the Universe (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a fascinating exploration of the age-old debate between free will and determinism, a concept often referred to as "Fate" in historical contexts. The author meticulously examines the history of thought on this subject, tracing its roots from ancient Greek philosophers like Democritus and Epicurus, known for their atomic theories, to the Stoics with their intricate concept of a divinely ordained chain of events. The exploration ventures beyond philosophical schools, delving into the influence of astrology and celestial movements on human actions as perceived by historical figures such as Plotinus and Origen. The author meticulously dissects various interpretations of "Fate" throughout history, including the controversial idea of a force even surpassing the power of the gods themselves. A central theme is the intricate relationship between divine providence and human agency. The book challenges the notion of a purely deterministic universe, advocating for a nuanced understanding that acknowledges the role of both divine influence and individual choice in shaping human destiny. By unraveling the complexities of free will versus determinism, this book offers profound insights into the nature of human existence, responsibility, and the enduring quest for meaning in a seemingly chaotic world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780282387471_0
