A Pessimist In Theory And Practice (1888)

By Robert Timsol

Book Overview

A Pessimist In Theory And Practice is a book written by Robert Timsol and originally published in 1888. The book explores the philosophy of pessimism, which is the belief that life is fundamentally negative and that suffering and pain are inevitable. Timsol examines the roots of pessimism, its historical development, and its application in different areas of life, including art, literature, and politics. The book also offers a critique of other philosophical schools of thought, such as optimism and nihilism, and argues that pessimism is the most accurate and realistic worldview. Timsol's writing is characterized by its lucidity and depth, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of philosophy or the study of pessimism as a philosophical concept.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
