Synopsis

THE PROMETHEUS CONNECTION America's Original Spirit: Rise, Demise, RecoveryAeschylus’s Prometheus Bound is the greatest creation myth ever invented. America is the greatest country ever created. Vividly, they meet in this short book, The Prometheus Connection. The torch of reason is the integrating image—an astonishing one. Prometheus used a torch to steal the fire of the gods and then ignite the spirit of man. And mankind was never the same again. Mankind had become infused with reason and thought. America’s Founders did the same for a new country. Their torch was Enlightenment philosophy, lit with the same fire of reason and thought. Brazenly they thrust it—flung it—into the face of tyrannical authority. And the world was never the same again. The Prometheus Connection is a unique approach to the story of America. Live again the rise of America’s original defiance. Witness its tragic demise and understand why it was inevitable. Experience the exhilaration of its recovery. You will not look at American history in the same way again.
