Enlightenment vs Romanticism

Sinopse

Enlightenment vs Romanticism explores the profound intellectual transition from the Age of Reason to the rise of Romanticism during the French Revolution. The book meticulously examines how the Enlightenment's emphasis on reason and universal principles gave way to Romanticism's focus on emotion, individualism, and the power of subjective experience. This shift wasn't a simple replacement, but a complex interplay, challenging the notion that Romanticism was a complete rejection of reason. In fact, the emerging Romantic movement critically responded to the perceived limitations of Enlightenment rationalism amidst revolutionary upheaval. 

 
The book progresses by first establishing the core tenets of Enlightenment thought, then examining the emergence of Romanticism. Through case studies of key thinkers, it illustrates the tensions between these perspectives. Finally, it explores their influence on art, literature, and political movements.

 
What makes this book unique is its nuanced approach, avoiding oversimplified characterizations and instead focusing on the complex interactions between these intellectual currents. It offers a fresh perspective on the intellectual history of this transformative era.

History of Christianity: An...

Billy Wellman

It is the largest faith in the world, spans the globe, and stretches back in time nearly two thousand years. We are, of course, talking about Christianity.
Today, the dominance of the Christian faith appears to be a readily accepted fact. But back when it first rose to prominence, for most outside observers, such an idea would have seemed highly unlikely.
From its inception, Christianity was persecuted and hounded. Christians often paid a high price for their faith. They met underground and even in graveyards. They were misunderstood, and their message to outsiders seemed hopelessly strange and muddled. Back then, no one could have imagined that this “cult,” which often met in secret, small groups, would one day have huge churches and an even larger global presence.
Yet, despite the odds, Christianity proved to be unstoppable. How did such a thing happen? From the perspective of a believer, the answer to that question is quite clear: the divine hand of God was at work. But even if one does not subscribe to the Christian faith, there are certain aspects of Christianity that stand out and can be used as mile-markers as to how and why Christianity came to take such a prominent place in world history.
This audiobook takes a look at the full history of Christianity, from its earliest days as a persecuted sect to its acceptance and formalization at the Council of Nicaea to the Middle Ages, the Enlightenment, and the subsequent modern age.
In this audiobook, you will learn about the following:The origins of Christianity and why people flocked to the religionThe life and ministry of JesusThe first Christian disciplesThe early Christian ChurchThe Council of Nicaea and the momentous impact it had on Christian historyAnd a whole lot more!
