Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This 18th-century philosophical tale presents a narrative centered around Atticus, a retired statesman who contentedly embraces his peaceful, rural life and rejects the allure of returning to his former powerful position. The author draws parallels between Atticus and historical figures like Abdolonymus and the Assyrian monarch Nebuchadnezzar to illustrate the vanity of ambition and excessive self-centeredness. Through a series of dialogues, the author explores the tension between public service and personal fulfillment, revealing the protagonist's profound reflections on nature, morality, and the meaning of a life well-lived. The book offers insights into the complexities of power and influence, challenging the notion that personal ambition is an inherent virtue. It delves into the themes of self-sufficiency, inner peace, and the search for true contentment in a world often driven by status and external recognition. Ultimately, this captivating tale prompts readers to contemplate the choices they make in life and the balance between ambition and personal well-being. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781330588802_0
