Description
The Modern Age by James V. Schall explores how our understanding of the world is shaped by its classical and revelational roots. At its core, this book suggests that our perception of reality is influenced by our own creations, rather than an objective truth. This perspective raises a fundamental question: if we only perceive our own "truth", do we truly know ourselves? The author argues that our existence and the world's are gifts, rather than self-created realities. By re-examining this idea, we may rediscover what it means to be human and find purpose in any age. Ultimately, Schall's work invites readers to consider the nature of reality and their place within it.
