Description

Explore a deep analysis of persuasion and human desire in this scholarly study from Routledge. This work examines how the philosophical components of Pascal's description of the will function as a vehicle for poetics and persuasion. By looking at the connection between the will and rhetoric, the text offers a unique way to view the author's complete works. This study focuses on how the notion of will serves as a foundation for Pascal's anthropology. It addresses the complexities of the term "volonte" and how its various meanings impact the understanding of his thought. For students and scholars of Western philosophy, this book provides a specialized viewpoint on the integration of human emotion and persuasive theory within Pascal's writings.
