Amazon.com Review summarizes four kinds of human love--affection, friendship, erotic love, and the love of God. Masterful without being magisterial, this book's wise, gentle, candid reflections on the virtues and dangers of love draw on sources from Jane Austen to St. Augustine. The chapter on charity (love of God) may be the best thing Lewis ever wrote about Christianity. Consider his reflection on Augustine's teaching that one must love only God, because only God is eternal, and all earthly love will someday pass away: Who could conceivably begin to love God on such a prudential ground--because the security (so to speak) is better? Who could even include it among the grounds for loving? Would you choose a wife or a Friend--if it comes to that, would you choose a dog--in this spirit? One must be outside the world of love, of all loves, before one thus calculates. His description of Christianity here is no less forceful and opinionated than in Mere Christianity or The Problem of Pain, but it is far less anxious about its reader's response--and therefore more persuasive than any of his apologetics. When he begins to describe the nature of faith, Lewis writes: 'Take it as one man's reverie, almost one man's myth. If anything in it is useful to you, use it; if anything is not, never give it a second thought.' --Michael Joseph Gross Read more Review 'A rare and memorable book.' Saturday Review' deserves to become a minor classic as a modern mirror of our souls, a mirror of the virtues and failings of human loving.' New York Times Book Review'[Lewis] has never written better. Nearly every page scintillates with observations which are illuminating, provocative and original.' Church Times'What is interesting about these chapters is the extent to which a non-believer can follow the argument and receive enlightenment Lewis has a keen eye, a large measure of human sympathy, wit, and a command of simple words By writing so well and so perceptively about natural human conduct, Lewis makes the strongest case for examining his conclusions with respect. He is writing, presumably, for the unconverted as well as for Christians, and whatever the former may believe or disbelieve about God they are persuaded that he could only exist as a culmination in absolute terms of their deepest moral convictions.'Times Literary Supplement Read more See all Editorial Reviews is a book by C S Lewis which explores the nature of love from a Christian and philosophical perspective through thought experiments The book was summarizes four kinds of human love The Greek language distinguishes at least four different ways as to how the word love is used Ancient Greek has four distinct words for love ag pe ros phil a Buy on Amazon com FREE SHIPPING on qualified orders 102 quotes from Friendship is born at the moment when one man says to another What You too I thought that no one but myself summarizes four kinds of human love A rare and memorable book Saturday Review deserves to become a minor classic as a modern mirror of our souls a mirror of the virtues and trope as used in popular culture Love is the most important value of all Everyone needs to love and be loved in return This trope applies Eros Love has not one but many faces C S Lewis in this candid wise and warmly personal book describes the four basic kinds of human love STUDY GUIDE to By C S Lewis Introduction was Lewis look at some of the different loves described in Greek thought T he Four Loves This is a short book summary of CS Lewis s classic the Four Loves The four loves come from the Greek who use four words to describe what we use In this candid wise and warmly personal book C S Lewis describes the four basic kinds of human love LibraryThing Review User Review In the last chapter of the last gospel Jn 21 there is something strange going on It is the scene where Jesus asks Peter three times Do you love me to In this passage from Lewis examines the distinction between divine and human love and how God s version has the power to transform our own Directed by Antony Cordier With Marina Fo s lodie Bouchez Roschdy Zem Nicolas Duvauchelle What are adult love affairs Two couples meet and fall in love Whence flows this ability to love In his classic book Lewis describes the four basic kinds of human love Four Loves by C S Lewis available in Trade Paperback on Powells com also read synopsis and reviews A candid wise and warmly personal book in which Lewis explores Advertisement Advertisement C S Lewis Four Loves Defines The Ultimate Love By CHRISTINE SMOLYNSKY Special Contributor C S Lewis First issued 1958 Contents Chapter 1 Introduction Chapter 2 Likings and Loves for the sub Get this from a library The four loves C S Lewis Custom Designs Colors patterns textures and materials are all thoughtfully considered and selected in my design process to create a distinct look that will Four Loves is a home based custom design sewing business inspired by bright contemporary fabrics www fourloves etsy com C S Lewis s famous inspirational work on the nature of love divides love into four categories Affection Friendship Eros and Charity Chapter 4 Eros In love I Definitions Eros romantic love 91 that is the feeling of being in love Venus sexual or carnal desire and Browse unique items from FourLoves on Etsy a global marketplace of handmade vintage and creative goods Free Download The Four Loves di eBook PDF.
