Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Anthropos "While the mute creation downward bend Their gaze, and to their earthly mother tend, Man looks aloft, and with erected eyes Beholds his own hereditary skies." The Greek word anthropos is given us in the lexicons as a triple compound, made up first, of an adverb that signifies "upward;" then of the fragment of a verb that means "to turn," and lastly of a noun that designates the "human face." The whole, combined in one word, points us to man as the creature that turns his face toward the skies. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
