Books that changed the world

Gulliver’s Travels is one of

the greatest satirical works

ever written.

Through the misadventures of

Lemuel Gulliver, Swift exposes

many of the follies of the

English Enlightenment, from its

worship of science to its neglect

of traditional philosophy and

theology.

Priceless reading for today’s

defenders of tradition.

Written in the sixth century,

The Consolation of Philosophy

was one of the most popular

and influential works of the

Middle Ages.

Boethius explores the true

end of life, knowledge of God,

through a conversation with

Lady Philosophy. Part prose,

part poetry, the work combines

Greek philosophy and Christian

Faith to formulate answers to

some of life’s most difficult and

enduring questions.

What does it mean to say

that we in the West live in a

secular age?

Taylor takes up the question

of what this means: of what

happens when a society in

which it is virtually impossible

not to believe in God, becomes

one in which faith, even for the

staunchest believer, is only one

human possibility among others.

A sea adventure, a study of

evil and a cast of fascinating

characters, including the crazed

captain who is obsessed with

hunting down the whale that

maimed him — Moby-Dick is all

of this and more.

Based on the author’s

experiences as a sailor, Herman

Melville’s probing look into the

human heart has been read

and analysed from every angle,

including the most absurd.
