Author: MARITAIN, JACQUES
Title: Christianity and Democracy
Description: London, Geoffrey Bles. 1946. Hard Cover, 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. Silver title on black cloth boards which are clean with some minor marks to front and just a touch of light wear to lower front edge. Internally there are a few spots of foxing to endpapers and two pages have a very small mark to the lower margins not affecting text else clean, tight and unmarked. Second impression (first was 1945). The book was written in the summer of 1942, at a time when the outcome of the war could still seem very disquieting, and appeared in French early in the spring of 1943, at a time when, whatever acts of desperation or machiavellianism Germany might yet try, her defeat and that of her partners seemed certain. Maritain reviews the role of Christianity and democracy at that crucial time. NOT EX LIB R5. Very Good/No Jacket.
