He was a phenomenally prolific writer. After achieving early success as an illustrator, he subsequently established his fame as a playwright, novelist, poet, literary commentator, pamphleteer, essayist, lecturer, apologist, and editor. The depth and range of his work are astounding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA pagan at only 12 and totally agnostic by 16, Chesterton had the remarkable experience of developing a personal, positive philosophy that turned out to be orthodox Christianity. \u003ci\u003eOrthodoxy, \u003c\/i\u003ehis account of it all, has not lost its force as a timeless argument for the simple plausibility of traditional Christianity. C.S. Lewis and many other emerging Christian thinkers have found this book a pivotal step in their adoption of a credible Christian faith. This intellectual and spiritual autobiography of the leading 20th century essayist combines simplicity with subtlety in a model apologetic that appeals to today's generations of readers who face the same materialism and antisupernaturalism as did the \"man at war with his times.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOf the numerous works that Chesterton wrote, the most scintillating synthesis of his philosophy and deeply religious faith was manifested in his masterpiece, \u003ci\u003eOrthodoxy, \u003c\/i\u003ewritten when he was only thirty-four and which tells, in his inimitable, soaring prose, of his earth-shaking discovery that orthodoxy is the only satisfactory answer to the perplexing riddle of the universe. \u003ci\u003eOrthodoxy \u003c\/i\u003eis perhaps the most outstanding example of the originality of his style and the brilliance of his thought.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ignatius Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67733677015283,"sku":"162-OP","price":22.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0751\/0294\/5523\/files\/OP_r__45419.webp?v=1791927950","url":"https:\/\/standrewschurchsupply.biz\/products\/orthodoxy","provider":"St. Andrew’s Book, Gift, \u0026 Church Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
