This two part bundle includes the full text of Blaise Pascal's Pensées, along with a free copy of Pascal's Prayers. Although unfinished and posthumously published, the Pensées have proven to be Blaise Pascal’s greatest legacy. In this series of rich philosophical fragments, the renowned mathematician paints a picture of humanity’s restless search for happiness in temporal goods—and the final realization of that happiness in the infinite God. In Pascal’s Prayers, author William C. Hackett presents new translations of, and commentary on, two prayers written by Pascal. Spanning the depths of anguish and the height of exaltation, this book offers religious and nonreligious readers alike stark insight into the human condition—and a glimpse into the throbbing heart of what it means to live and die a Christian.
