Biathanatos - John Donne - Bog

Biathanatos is a philosophical treatise written by John Donne in 1648, exploring the controversial topic of suicide. In this work, Donne argues that self-homicide is not inherently sinful, and that there are circumstances in which it may be justified. He explores the historical and cultural attitudes towards suicide, as well as the theological and moral implications of the act. The book is divided into several sections, each examining a different aspect of the topic, including the nature of death, the role of God in human affairs, and the ethics of suicide. Despite its controversial subject matter, Biathanatos is a thoughtful and nuanced exploration of a complex issue, and remains a significant work in the history of philosophy and theology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
