About this Item

Manifold Unity: The Ancient World?s Perception of the Divine Pattern of Harmony and Compassion is a philosophical and comparative study of ancient religious and metaphysical thought by Vera Christina Chute Collum. Drawing on Greek, Indian, and early Christian sources, Collum explores the idea of an underlying unity expressed through harmony, order, and compassion, arguing for a shared spiritual intuition across ancient cultures.

Originally published as part of the Wisdom of the East series, the work reflects early twentieth-century comparative religion and perennial philosophy, combining classical scholarship with a humane and idealistic vision of spiritual concord. Collum was associated with Theosophical and interfaith intellectual circles, and the book stands as a characteristic example of that tradition?s engagement with antiquity.

Hardcover. English language. A thoughtful and increasingly scarce title of interest to readers of religious philosophy, classical thought, and the history of comparative religion.
