Produktbeschreibung
A small flame in a long tradition of inquiry, this volume speaks to the curious mind as a trusted companion. A Biographical Dictionary of Freethinkers of All Ages and Nations brings together lives that illuminate voices of dissent, curiosity, and conscience across time. In form and themes, Wheeler's work functions as both a reference anthology and a living, historical compendium. It offers concise yet vivid appreciations of freethinkers' ideas, tracing the threads of secularism history, religious skepticism, and the freethought movement across 19th century europe and beyond. It is at once a guide for general readers and a source for researchers and students, a gateway to worldwide freethinkers and their enduring influence on culture, science, and public discourse. Its literary and historical significance lies in preserving a critical lineage of inquiry that shaped modern thought. This is more than lampooned anecdote or ceremonial tribute; it is a carefully curated archive that invites reflection, comparison, and dialogue. For casual readers and classic-literature collectors alike, the book offers a rare blend of accessibility and scholarly regard-an artefact that honours courage, curiosity, and the stubborn pursuit of truth. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it has been restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint, this is a collector's item and a cultural treasure-coaxing memory, inspiring thought, and inviting new readers to encounter a global tradition of freethinkers.
