Etat : very good. Chicago : The University of Chicago Press, 1987. Reprint. Hardcover. xiii, 193 pp. - What Eric Voegelin attempts in The New Science of Politics is nothing less ambitious than a complete theory of humanity, society, and history. To build his theory, Voegelin draws on a breathtaking range of subjects from throughout history, including the Mongol Orders of Submission, the Behistun Inscription, and a controversy over an alter to the goddess Victoria in the Roman Forum. Addressing the access to truth afforded by myth, revelation, and philosophy, Voegelin then carefully contrasts each with gnosticism. The resulting book is a heady exploration of the development of European politics through the Western tradition and the ongoing importance of the inner quest for transcendent reality. Condition : very good copy. ISBN 9780226861104. Keywords : POLITICS, political philosophy Voegelin, Eric (1901-1985). N° de réf. du vendeur 305511
