Вечный Человек

Вечный Человек

«Вечный Человек» – трактат, написанный английским писателем и философом Гилбертом Честертоном в защиту христианской церкви. Книга Честертона состоит по большей части из общефилософских рассуждений. Они изложены прекрасным языком, остроумны, парадоксальны, местами увлекательны, но убедить могут все-таки только того, кто и так убежден. Для Честертона христианство – религия любви и добра, религия свободы и радости, религия жизни. Вера, отвергающая пессимизм. Вера, которая находится в согласии с...

Перстень прелюбодеев

Перстень прелюбодеев

Ироничные, с занимательной детективной интригой рассказы Честертона стали классикой детектива, привлекая психологизмом, поэтичностью, добротой и жизненной мудростью. Увлекательный, порой парадоксальный сюжет, изысканный юмор и нравственная глубина не оставят равнодушным самого искушенного читателя.
