Présentation de l'éditeur

Guide to theD uties of the Heart is the unique work that first linked the ethical science of theW est with the emotional and spiritual morality of theE ast. It combines, in an artistic unity, elements drawn from the philosophy and contemplative mysticism of the A rabs, from Biblical andR abbinic Judaism, and from Greek thought. By exhibiting the spiritual foundations of universal Ethics, and of the moral law of theB ible, in the light of pure reason, Bachye prepared the way for finding that common ground on which, wholly or in part, all the moral religions, and all the nonreligious systems of morality, are rooted. Therefore, although actually written inS pain, a land of theW est, it forms a fitting opening volume for theW isdom of theE ast Series.
