Letters From Lake Como - Explorations in Technology and the Human Race

Informationen zum Autor Romano Guardini (1885-1968) was a professor of Christian philosophy at the universities of Breslau, Berlin, Tubingen, and Munch. A leading promoter of the German Catholic Youth Movement, he wrote more than thirty books, including Freedom, Grace and Dignity. Klappentext This book collects a fascinating series of letters written by theologian-philosopher Romano Guardini in the mid-1920s in which he works out for the first time his sense of the challenges of humanity in a culture increasingly dominated by the machine. With prophetic clarity and unsettling farsightedness, Guardini's letters poignantly capture the personal implications and social challenges of living in the technological age — concerns that have now come to fruition seventy years after they were first raised.
