The Age of Reason

Viac o knihe

Focusing on the American Deist movement, this influential work highlights the evolution of thought in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Authored by Thomas Paine over a decade, it was published in three parts between 1794 and 1807. The book rapidly gained popularity in post-Revolution America, igniting a resurgence of Deism as a counterpoint to dominant Christian beliefs, and played a significant role in shaping religious discourse of the time.
