Sobre IBD

'Considered by many to be the greatest book by enormously influential American preacher and theologian JONATHAN EDWARDS (1703¿1758), this provocative 1754 work explores the necessity of God¿s grace for the salvaging of the damaged ¿will¿ of humanity and argues that free will is an extension of and connected to the grace of God. What is the nature of morality? Can God be evil? What constitutes sin? How does God¿s foreknowledge of all events impact concepts of morality? How does intent inform our acts of vice and virtue?Still controversial and hotly debated in the 21st century, this demanding evangelistic work¿some call it the best argument for the sovereignty of God¿is among the essential reading of the thinker whose philosophies inspired the 18th-century religious of the Great Awakening, which continues to hugely influence American Protestantism to this day. Freedom of the Will will enthrall and challenge serious readers of the Bible as well as students of theology¿s impact on American history.'

  • On the Duty of Civil Disobedience
    HENRY DAVID THOREAU
    Civil Disobedience argues that citizens should not permit their governments to overrule their consciences, and that they have a duty to avoid allowing their acquiescence to enable the government to make them the agents of injustice. Thoreau was motivated in part by his disgust with slavery and the Mexican-American War, but the sentiments he expresses here are just as pertinent ...

While not a complete grammatical treatment of Mahican, this text is one of the better works of the era, all the more valuable for Edwards’ native command of the language.
