Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, a compilation of lectures by professors of philosophy and theology from St. Louis University in the 1860s, presents an utterly unique perspective on the evolution of progress throughout history. The author positions the 19th century as a standout era marked by rapid intellectual, material, and moral progression, although he acknowledges that these developments carried both the potential for unparalleled societal advancements and severe crises and instability. The text explores key themes such as the impact of scientific and technological breakthroughs in fields like chemistry and geology on our understanding of the natural world, as well as the more somber consequences of widespread industrialization and rampant materialism. Ultimately, the book offers an in-depth look at the interplay between scientific discovery, religious evolution, and the human condition during one of the most consequential epochs in human history.
