| Summary, etc. | The Art of Wordly Wisdom, written by the 17th-century Spanish Jesuit scholar Baltasar Gracián, is considered a classic text for those seeking a philosophy for life. The 300 maxims with accompanying commentary provide a worldview that encourages ethical behavior when seeking worldly success. Covering a wide range of subjects, including friendships, morality, conversations, discretion, and happiness, these words of advice are easily accessible to the modern reader.<br/><br/>This edition uses Joseph Jacobs’ masterly translation from the original Spanish. It strips the text back to the maxims and their commentaries alone, making it easy to dip into for everyday insight. |
