Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The narrative explores the profound impact of the "Death of God" on 19th-century thought, highlighting how scientific advancements, particularly Darwin's theories, led to widespread abandonment of traditional beliefs. Through the lives of influential figures like Gibbon, Kant, and Freud, it examines the multifaceted origins of religious doubt. The Church of England, despite its wealth and influence, is depicted as spiritually hollow. This shift sparked revolutionary politics, literary expressions, and the early feminist movement, creating a lasting sense of existential loss that resonates today.
