Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the inequalities of human condition and suggests that they are intentional, in order to discipline and elevate the moral character. It discusses the importance of both labor and humanity as principles of social action, and how the former increases physical and mental strength, while the latter awakens a sense of dignity in those who receive it. The author argues that the rich and the poor are meant to meet and embrace as fellow citizens, and that this principle of giving and receiving is the life and happiness of the moral world. He emphasizes the importance of compassion and virtue in alleviating suffering, and the significance of understanding the lessons that misfortune can teach. Ultimately, the book argues that the most perfect morality is expressed in the alliance between the strong and the weak, and that this kind of morality is sublime and capable of revealing the designs of Providence.
