Produktbeschreibung
Abel J. Jones' collection of stories in which he seeks to aggregate many of his Spirituality, Nobel Laureate thoughts consolidated in a single form and provide them at an inexpensive price so that everyone can read them. Some stories are fascinating and fantastic, while others sneak up on you and draw you in. Rudolf Eucken was an eminent German philosopher and Nobel Prize recipient in Literature (1908). Some stories are violent and strange, while others creep up on you and slowly suck you in. Readers are compelled to keep reading because the title character is so self-indulgent. With a redesigned cover and professionally typeset material, this version of "Rudolph Eucken" is both current and legible. "The Meaning and Value of Life" (1908), one of his major writings, addresses significant issues of the purpose and significance of human existence. Eucken explores into the realms of ethics, spirituality, and the human search for meaning in this work. According to Eucken, the ultimate meaning of life is found not in consumerism or superficial interests, but in the development of one's spiritual and moral qualities.
