1 post
The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

Buechersuechtling If that‘s true, food is another field where I will not become an artist in during this lifetime. 😊 5y
RamsFan1963 @Buechersuechtling I love to cook, but only for myself. I'm kind of shy, I'd be hurt if I put time and effort into a dish, then someone didn't like it. Plus I like my food spicier than most people, so I'd have to water it down for others. 5y
Buechersuechtling @RamsFan1963 Similar here. Since I met my significant other I always say that I know to prepare nutrients so that I don‘t starve but he – he really knows to cook 👨🏽‍🍳. Since it seldom tastes the same if I cook a meal twice, it‘s better that I only cook for myself most of the time. 5y
