Description
- Collection of Joseph Pieper's famous treatises
- On the Theological Virtues of Faith, Hope, & Love
- Printed together in one volume
- From a series of lectures
- Insightful, concise and meaningful
The first of the three that he wrote, On Hope, was written in 1934 in response to the general feeling of despair of those times. His "philosophical treatise" on Faith was derived from a series of lectures he gave in the late 1950s and early 1960s. His most difficult work, one that he struggled with for years - and almost abandoned - was his work On Love. Pieper now feels that this is the most important book he has written. He discusses not only the theological virtue of caritas-agape, but also of eros, sexuality, and even "love" of music and wine.
