Conventional Lies of Our Civilization is a book written by Max Nordau and published in 1896. This book is a critical analysis of the society and culture of the late 19th century. Nordau argues that the civilization of his time is built on a foundation of lies and delusions. He contends that the values and beliefs that people hold are not based on reason and evidence but on tradition and superstition.Nordau examines various aspects of society, including politics, religion, art, and science. He argues that politicians are dishonest and self-serving, that religion is irrational and oppressive, that art has become decadent and meaningless, and that science is often misused and misunderstood.The book is divided into two parts. The first part is a critique of the prevailing ideas and beliefs of the time. The second part offers a vision for a new and better civilization based on reason, truth, and justice.Nordau's writing is incisive and provocative, and his ideas were controversial at the time of publication. The book was widely read and discussed, and it continues to be a thought-provoking work that challenges readers to examine their own beliefs and values.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
