A Vindication Of Providence

""A Vindication of Providence: Or a True Estimate of Human Life in Which the Passions are Considered in a New Light"" is a philosophical work by the English poet and playwright Edward Young. In this book, Young explores the idea of Providence, which he defines as the belief that everything that happens in the world is part of a divine plan. He argues that Providence is not only a comforting idea, but also a necessary one, as it provides a sense of purpose and meaning to human life.Young also examines the role of human passions in shaping our lives, arguing that they are not inherently negative, but rather a natural part of the human experience. He suggests that by understanding and harnessing our passions, we can live more fulfilling lives and contribute to the greater good.Throughout the book, Young draws on a wide range of philosophical and literary sources, including the Bible, ancient Greek and Roman philosophers, and contemporary thinkers. He presents his ideas in a clear and accessible style, making this book an engaging read for anyone interested in philosophy, theology, or the nature of human existence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
