Lessing's Education Of The Human Race (1908)

Lessing's Education of the Human Race is a philosophical work written by German writer Gotthold Ephraim Lessing in 1780. In this book, Lessing explores the idea of humanity's continuous progress towards enlightenment and perfection. He argues that this progress is achieved through the accumulation of knowledge and experience, which is passed down from generation to generation. John Dearling Haney's edition of the book, published in 1908, includes an introduction and notes that provide context and analysis for Lessing's ideas. Haney also includes translations of Lessing's other works, which further explore the themes of education and progress. Overall, Lessing's Education of the Human Race is a thought-provoking work that challenges readers to consider the role of education in human development and the pursuit of knowledge. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, history, and the human condition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
