Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The French seventeenth century philosopher, Blaise Pascal was also a mathematician, physicist and master of prose. A child prodigy, Pascal had numerous interests and an innovative, untiring mind, making a significant contribution to a range of fields and studies. He laid the foundation for the modern theory of probabilities, formulating what came to be known as Pascal’s principle of pressure. He also propagated a religious doctrine that taught the experience of God through the heart rather than reason. An important mathematician, he went on to strongly influence the development of modern economics and social science. Pascal's most celebrated work is ‘Pensées’ (Thoughts), a collection of fragments left unfinished at his early death. It is a treatise on spirituality, representing a defense of the Christian religion, introducing the famous concept of "Pascal's wager". This comprehensive eBook presents Pascal’s collected (almost complete) works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.

Download or read book Pascal s Pensees written by Blaise Pascal and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-06-29 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pascal's Pensees by Blaise Pascal It might seem that about Blaise Pascal, and about the two works on which his fame is founded, everything that there is to say had been said. The details of his life are as fully known as we can expect to know them; his mathematical and physical discoveries have been treated many times; his religious sentiment and his theological views have been discussed again and again; and his prose style has been analysed by French critics down to the finest particular. But Pascal is one of those writers who will be and who must be studied afresh by men in every generation. It is not he who changes, but we who change. It is not our knowledge of him that increases, but our world that alters and our attitudes towards it. The history of human opinions of Pascal and of men of his stature is a part of the history of humanity. That indicates his permanent importance. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.
Download or read book Pens es and Other Writings written by Blaise Pascal and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1995 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For much of his life Pascal (1623-62) worked on a magnum opus which was never published in its intended form. Instead, he left a mass of fragments, some of them meant as notes for the Apologie. These were to become known as the Pensees, and they occupy a crucial place in Western philosophy and religious writing. Pascal's general intention was to confound scepticism about metaphysical questions. Some of the Pensees are fully developed literary reflections on the human condition, some contradict others, and some remain jottings whose meaning will never be clear. The most important are among the most powerful aphorisms about human experience and behavior ever written in any language. This translation is the only one based on the Pensees as Pascal left them. It includes the principal dossiers classified by Pascal, as well as the essential portion of the important Writings on Grace. A detailed thematic index gives access to Pascal's areas of concern, while the selection of texts and the Introduction help to show why Pascal changed the plan of his projected work before abandoning the book he might have written.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pensees de Pascal, Vol. 1 On trouvera plus loin l'histoire de la vie de Pascal; je voudrais faire ici celle de son esprit et de ses idees. Je laisse a d'autres l'entre prise de discuter les Pensees; je voudrais seulement les expliquer. Je ne pretends qu'etudier l'homme et son genie dans ces fragments, et _me rendre compte des caracteres particuliers que cette defense de la reli gion presente entre toutes les autres. Pascal est d'abord un mathematicien, un savant il l'est des l'enfanec, si l'on peut dire qu'il ait eu une enfance il depense le feu de sa jeu nesse dans ces travaux; avant vingt-cinq ans, il est en possession des plus grands resultats. Puis, du milieu de la vie aride de la science, nous voyons ce coeur, que la poursuite de la verite abstraite ne satis fait pas, s'ouvrir a des pensees qui le remplissent davantage. Il cher che la passion, mais pure, et la vertu, mais brulante. Il etait chretien il devient devot ce n'est pas assez il devient sectaire, car la piete commune ne lui suffit pas. La devotion qui l'a conquis ne le laisse plus echapper et finit par absorber tout son etre. Elle est encore exaltee par la maladie, qui s'est saisie de lui des l'adolescence et qui depuis ne cesse de lui livrer des assauts, jusqu'a ce qu'elle l'accable a trente-neuf ans, irritant par ses continuelles atteintes l'impatience de son esprit absolu et la melancolie de \n ame ardente.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Les Pensées de Pascal, Disposées Suivant l'Ordre du Cahier Autographe: d104e Critique Établi d'Après le Manuscrit Original Et les Deux Copies de la Bibliothèque Nationale Avec les Variantes des Principales Éditions Sans doute, cette indifïére trouver dans la bourgeoisie de notre temps. Le srecle est alors si généralement croyant, l'esprit de cette génération est si naturellement tourné vers la religion que cette tiédeur se concilie fort bien avec une foi sincère et mème superstitieuse, Déjà le lien est rompu qui avait si étroitement rattaché la raison et la foi; mais pendant quelque temps encore, elles feront route de conserve. En un mot, l'indépendance de la pensée chez le père de Pascal est celle d'un homme modéré ami de la tradition et de la règle, élevé au milieu des enseignements du christia nisme, en un temps où des incrédules comme le Prince de Condé et la Princesse Palatine, ne se sentant point sûrs dans leur impiété, avaient besoin de s'y encou rager, et essayaient, dans cette intention, de brûler un morceau de la vraie croix. Nous en avons une preuve bien significative dans l'étrange histoire de sorcellerie que raconte Marguerite Périer 2. On sait comment, Blaise encore tout jeune étant gravement malade, une sorcière fut contrainte d'avouer qu'elle lui avait jeté un sort; menacée et battue par le grand'père, elle sauva l'enfant, en transportant le sort sur un chat qui mourut. L'état d'esprit d'un homme instruit, d'un magistrat, qui ajoute foi à ces incantations, nous est devenu étranger: les hommes les plus religieux de notre temps sont jaloux d'éviter le reproche de superstition; mais c'est une preuve du moins qu'au XVII° siècle, on était singulièrement plus enclin à croire au surnaturel que nous ne le sommes aujourd'hui, et Pascal lui - mème a continué de croire aux sortilèges 3. En tout cas, ce récit de Marguerite Périer doit ètre noté une époque, où de semblables croyances sont répandues, est plus capable aussi d'une foi sans réserve.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Puissances de Pascal A grandeur de Pascal n'est pas dans l'intelligence, si grande soit la sienne; mais d'avoir l'âme si intense et si nue. J'y touche ce qui le sépare de ceux mème qui l'admirent le plus ils le saisissent mal n'étant pas à l'échelle. C'est pour eux qu'il est sceptique. Ils le voient toujours comme il eût été, s'il vivait parmi eux. Pascal a eu tant d'avenir dans la pensée, qu'en effet nous l'avons encore au milieu de nous. Spinosa esttout de mème, àl'autre pôle de la sphère. Pascal vous semble douter dans le trouble et les tourments il n'est que brû lant à l'excès; et vous ne pouvez souffrirle brasier de cette âme. Et Spinosa, qui vous paraît si calme vous ne sentez pas comme il est impassible et glacial, mortellement.
