About This Item
London, England: Geoffrey Bles, 1949. First edition. Wraps as issued. Very Good/Very good. First British Edition, 1948. Red printed card covers in matching dust-jacket. Very good. Translated from the French. Text develops two scarce lectures: the Deneke lecture given at Oxford in 1939 and one given in Rome at the Pontifical Academy of Saint Thomas in 1945. Maritain's unique perspective as both a Thomistic theologian and a philosopher, challenges us to see past ideological and political extremes to live the insight - that it is through society that persons accomplish their full human dignity, by relating to, learning from, and loving each other. As we share a common human dignity, so we share a common ordination to God, and the common society in which to achieve it together.
