Treatise on Tolerance

Voltaire

Sinopse

In "Treatise on Tolerance," Voltaire eloquently argues for the necessity of freedom of belief and the importance of coexistence among diverse faiths in an era marked by religious conflict and persecution. Written in a clear and accessible prose style characteristic of Enlightenment literature, this treatise challenges the dogmatic certainties of the past and advocates for a rational approach to tolerance. Voltaire's incisive critique of fanaticism and his reflections on the moral imperative of empathy resonate within the broader context of Enlightenment thought, where reason was heralded as a guiding principle towards societal progress. Voltaire, a figure synonymous with the Enlightenment, was deeply influenced by his own experiences of oppression and censorship stemming from his outspoken views on religion and politics. His personal encounters with injustice, including imprisonment and exile, fueled his passion for advocating civil liberties and the pursuit of truth. Through his extensive body of work, including essays, plays, and historical writings, he sought to challenge the status quo and inspire contemplation on the ideals of liberty, reason, and tolerance. This vital work remains essential for contemporary readers, as it not only sheds light on the historical struggles for tolerance and understanding but also serves as a call to action against modern intolerance. "Treatise on Tolerance" is a profound philosophical exploration that invites readers to reflect on their own beliefs and the importance of respecting differing viewpoints in our increasingly polarized world.

"A History of the Warfare of Science with Theology in Christendom" by Andrew Dickson White is a seminal two-volume work that delves into the prolonged struggle between science and religious orthodoxy throughout Western history. White, co-founder and first president of Cornell University, provides a comprehensive account of how religious dogma frequently stood in opposition to scientific advancements, from the age of Galileo to Darwinian evolution. He posits that this clash hindered intellectual progress and societal development, but also acknowledges the instances where religion fostered the growth of scientific understanding. Through detailed historical analysis, White underscores the necessity of maintaining a clear separation between theological beliefs and empirical investigation for the unhindered progress of knowledge.

Animals in Ancient Rome: The...

Editors Charles River

Rome's complex relationship with animals goes right back to its foundation myth, and even today, the wolf remains a symbol of the Eternal City, forming part of the logo for the capital's football team, A. S. Roma. According to tradition, the city of Rome was founded by Romulus, who, with his brother Remus, was nursed and sheltered by a she-wolf. That tale, widely believed as a historical fact by ancient Romans, had a profound influence on Roman culture, and in part that shaped Roman attitudes toward their animals. The actual cave where Romulus and Remus were said to have been raised, the Lupercal, is thought to have been situated on the Palatine Hill in the very heart of Rome, and there was a claim by some archaeologists it had been found in 2007. True or not, the story of the wolf and its link to the beginnings of Rome continues to intrigue modern citizens, and the recent return of a family of wolves to the outskirts of Rome was greeted with wild enthusiasm.
Other than the tale of the she-wolf with Romulus and Remus, the overriding images and stories of Roman animals that have come down through popular culture to modern times largely concern the vicious animal fights put on in the Colosseum, stories of Christians being thrown to the lions, and Hannibal's invasion of Italy with elephants. Indeed, the widely accepted view is that Romans were uncommonly brutal to their animals and had little empathy for them, and in terms of the Romans' scientific knowledge about animals, it appears much of it came to them from the Greeks.
