Omschrijving

In "Ars Recte Vivendi; Being Essays Contributed to 'The Easy Chair,'" George William Curtis presents a collection of insightful essays that delve into the art of living rightly. Written in the reflective and engaging prose characteristic of the 19th-century American essay, Curtis's works explore themes of morality, society, and the cultivation of personal character. The essays were initially published in "The Easy Chair," a platform known for intellectual discourse, thus situating Curtis's reflections within a vibrant literary context that sought to elevate public thought through accessible yet profound commentary. George William Curtis, a prominent figure in American literature and social reform, was influenced by the intellectual currents of his time, including transcendentalism and the social gospel movement. His commitment to moral philosophy and public ethics, coupled with his experiences as a writer and editor, shaped his worldview. Curtis's progressive ideals and belief in the transformative power of literature propelled him to produce a body of work that not only critiques societal norms but also offers a vision of a more refined and virtuous existence. This anthology is a must-read for those seeking wisdom on the nuances of ethical living while navigating the complexities of modern society. Curtis's compassionate insights and eloquent style invite readers to reflect deeply on their values and encourage a pursuit of a life well-lived, making this collection both a source of inspiration and a guide for contemporary philosophical inquiry.
