Conscience And Fanaticism: An Essay On Moral Values is a book written by George Pitt-Rivers and first published in 1919. The book is a philosophical exploration of the concepts of conscience and fanaticism, and how they relate to moral values. Pitt-Rivers argues that conscience is a fundamental aspect of human nature, and that it is the source of our moral values. He suggests that conscience is not something that is imposed on us from the outside, but rather is something that arises from within us. He also explores the idea that fanaticism, which he defines as an excessive and uncritical devotion to a particular idea or cause, can be a dangerous force that can lead people to act in ways that are contrary to their conscience and moral values.Throughout the book, Pitt-Rivers draws on a range of philosophical and literary sources to support his arguments. He discusses the work of thinkers such as Immanuel Kant and Friedrich Nietzsche, and also references literary works such as Shakespeare's Hamlet and Milton's Paradise Lost.Overall, Conscience And Fanaticism: An Essay On Moral Values is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of some of the most fundamental aspects of human nature and morality. It is a book that will be of interest to anyone who is interested in philosophy, ethics, or the nature of human values.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
