Resolves: Divine, Moral, And Political (1806)

By Owen Felltham

Book Overview

Resolves: Divine, Moral, and Political is a collection of essays written by Owen Felltham and originally published in 1623. The book is divided into three sections, each containing a series of short essays on various topics. The first section, Divine Resolves, focuses on religious and spiritual matters, with essays on topics such as prayer, sin, and the nature of God. The second section, Moral Resolves, deals with ethical and moral issues, such as the importance of honesty, the dangers of pride, and the virtues of charity and humility. The third and final section, Political Resolves, addresses political and social issues, including the role of the monarch, the importance of a just government, and the dangers of tyranny. Throughout the book, Felltham draws on a variety of sources, including the Bible, classical literature, and contemporary political and philosophical works, to offer his insights and opinions on a wide range of topics. The language is formal and archaic, reflecting the style of the time in which it was written. Despite its age, Resolves: Divine, Moral, and Political remains a thought-provoking and insightful work on the human condition, and is still read and studied today for its wisdom and insights.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
