By Edmund Peyton Lowe

Book Overview

Man's Ancient Truth And Its Place In Democracy is a book written by Edmund Peyton Lowe and published in 1918. The book explores the concept of ancient truth and its relevance in modern democracy. Lowe argues that the wisdom and knowledge of the past can still be valuable in today's society, and that democracy can benefit from incorporating these ancient truths into its principles and practices. The book is divided into two parts. The first part focuses on the idea of ancient truth, discussing its meaning, sources, and value. Lowe draws on examples from history and philosophy to illustrate the importance of this concept. He also explores the relationship between ancient truth and modern science, arguing that the two are not in conflict but rather complementary.The second part of the book examines the role of ancient truth in democracy. Lowe argues that democracy is not just a political system but also a moral and spiritual one, and that ancient truth can provide guidance in these areas. He discusses the importance of education in cultivating an appreciation for ancient truth, and explores how it can inform political decision-making and the development of public policy.Overall, Man's Ancient Truth And Its Place In Democracy is a thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between ancient wisdom and modern democracy. It offers insights into how we can draw on the past to build a better future, and how ancient truths can help us navigate the complex challenges of modern society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
