Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the timeless wisdom gleaned from observing human nature and navigating the complexities of life. Drawing inspiration from the works of La BruyÃÂ re and Vauvenargues, two renowned philosophers, it offers a collection of insightful character portraits, witty observations, and thought-provoking maxims. These writings, spanning the 17th and 18th centuries, provide a fascinating glimpse into the social and cultural landscape of their time. The author's keen eye for detail and profound understanding of human behavior illuminate the universal traits and foibles that transcend generations. From the absent-minded professor to the ambitious social climber, the characters depicted offer a mirror to our own experiences and invite self-reflection. Through witty aphorisms and insightful reflections, the book explores themes of virtue, ambition, friendship, and the search for meaning. It challenges readers to examine their own beliefs and values, and to strive for a life guided by both reason and passion. The author's profound insights remind us that true happiness lies not in material possessions or social status, but in the cultivation of character and the pursuit of wisdom. Ultimately, this book serves as a timeless guide to understanding ourselves and the world around us. Its enduring observations and thought-provoking maxims offer valuable lessons that can enrich our lives and help us navigate the complexities of human existence. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Condition: New. Idioma/Language: Español. LUC DE CLAPIERS, marqués de VAUVENARGUES (1715-1747), nació en Aix-en-Provence, hijo mayor de una familia de la baja nobleza. Su mala salud no impidió que a los 17 años se alistara en el Ejército en busca de una vida de acción. Sin embargo, el destino no le había llamado para la servidumbre y la grandeza de una carrera militar, y el año de 1741, durante la larga e ignominiosa retirada de Praga, contrajo una enfermedad pulmonar que acabaría con su vida cuatro años más tarde. Alentado por Voltaire, se desplazó a París para consagrarse a la literatura. Planificó un volumen que tituló modestamente Introducción al conocimiento de la mente humana. Y en 1746 publicó un pequeño libro que contenía algunos ensayos y una selección de sus máximas. «Regresemos con Vauvenargues a la pureza de la lengua, a la serenidad de los pensamientos y a la integridad moral». Estas palabras, con las que Sainte-Beuve encabeza su ensayo sobre el moralista, condensan los aspectos esenciales de su obra breve, pero henchida de claridades. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
