Book Overview

The Divine Afflatus: A Force In History is a book written by the United Society of Shirley, Massachusetts in 1875. The book explores the concept of the divine afflatus, which is the belief that creative inspiration and artistic genius come from a divine source. The authors argue that this force has played a significant role in shaping the course of human history, from the works of great artists and thinkers to the movements that have changed the world. The book also delves into the religious and philosophical implications of the divine afflatus, examining its relationship to concepts such as free will, destiny, and the nature of God. Through a combination of historical analysis, theological reflection, and personal testimony, The Divine Afflatus offers a compelling case for the existence and importance of this mysterious force in human affairs.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
