Repose And Power

By Edmund Shaftesbury

Book Overview

Repose and Power is a philosophical treatise written by Edmund Shaftesbury, first published in 1893. The book explores the concepts of repose and power, arguing that they are two essential elements of human existence. Shaftesbury argues that repose, or the ability to be at rest, is necessary for human beings to lead a fulfilling life. However, he also contends that power, or the ability to act and achieve, is equally important. The book delves into the relationship between these two concepts, exploring how they interact and influence one another. Shaftesbury also discusses the role of society in promoting both repose and power, and how individuals can balance these two elements in their own lives. Overall, Repose and Power is a thought-provoking work that challenges readers to consider the importance of both rest and action in their lives.THIS 38 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Instantaneous Personal Magnetism: Combining an Absolutely New Method with the Best Established Teachings of the Past, by Edmund Shaftesbury.
