Blaise Pascal

    19 giugno 1623 – 19 agosto 1662

    Blaise Pascal fu un matematico e filosofo francese la cui opera approfondì sia l'indagine scientifica che la contemplazione teologica. Insieme a Pierre de Fermat, pose le basi della teoria della probabilità. Una profonda conversione spirituale nella fase avanzata della sua vita reindirizzò il suo intelletto verso la teologia, portando alla creazione delle sue celebri Lettere Provinciali. Pascal è ampiamente riconosciuto per la sua Scommessa, un argomento filosofico riguardante la scelta razionale di credere nell'esistenza di Dio.

      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 Pensées, and they occupy a crucial place in Western philosophy and religious writing. This translation is the only one based on the Pensées as Pascal left them. It includes the principal dossiers classified by Pascal, as well as the essential portion of the important Writings on Grace.
