Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Growth of Freedom Like all abstractions, freedom is difficult to define, and though we may usually know it when we see it, our knowledge is often uncertain. Even the word has not exactly the same meaning as its supposed equivalents in other languages. "Elcuthcria," "Libertas," "Freiheit," and their derivatives suggest different shades of feeling. Our own word "Liberty" is commonly used as identical with "Freedom," but it sounds less solid. At first sight we might accept as a definition "the power of doing what one pleases, in the absence of external prcssuro." We talk, for instance, of being "free as air," because we suppose that the wind bloweth whither it listeth.
