Summary |
"A Biblia da Humanidade" by Antero de Quental is a philosophical work produced in the late 19th century. The book explores profound themes surrounding the nature of humanity, spirituality, and the relationship between man and God, reflecting the intellectual currents of its time. In this work, Quental delves into the concept of a divine presence within humanity, asserting that each individual harbors a part of the divine that connects them to a greater universal truth. He juxtaposes ancient philosophical thoughts from Socrates with Christian teachings, emphasizing the unity of human experience across different cultures and faiths. The text argues that the evolution of religions reflects humanity's quest for understanding and connection, highlighting the importance of love, aspiration, and the human experience in the unfolding of divinity. Through rich metaphors and a contemplative tone, the author encourages readers to recognize the divine that resides within themselves and within the collective consciousness of humanity.
