Dante and Other Waning Classics (Classic Reprint) by Albert Mordell Pdf
Excerpt from Dante and Other Waning Classics Literature takes man as he is; it roots itself in human nature and material as well as spiritual desires; it shows us the individual with his impulses to exercise all his faculties and satisfy his instincts. Theology is taken up with devotion and repentance; it aims after piety; it wishes to dehumanize man. If literature is to be made a study of human nature, wrote Cardinal Newman, who certainly was no enemy of theology.
