Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from From Authority to Freedom: The Spiritual Pilgrimage of Charles Hargrove The history of European thought for the last four hundred years might be described, not inaptly, as "a pilgrimage from authority to freedom." In the pages that follow this history will reduce itself to the dimensions of a single life. As the growth of a human body repeats the evolution of the race at large, so the growth of one man´s mind may comprise in a few brief years a process which occupies centuries on the stage of the world. The pilgrimage of Charles Hargrove covers about a quarter of the nineteenth century, ending in 1876. It began in an effort to find certitude, and the peace which certitude is supposed to bring, under the authority of the Bible. Failing there, the effort was repeated with yet greater determination and thoroughness in the Church of Rome. Again it failed, and the second failure was the more disastrous because for nearly ten years the pilgrim believed that in Rome he had found what he sought. After this shipwreck he abandoned the quest for absolute certainty as a goal attainable by the human mind and freely staked his soul on the high probability that Love is supreme in the universe - in other words, that there is a living God.
