Heretics

Meer over het boek

Challenging the ideas of notable early 20th-century intellectuals, Chesterton critiques figures like H.G. Wells and George Bernard Shaw in a series of essays. He argues that their views on science, religion, and politics lead society astray, advocating for traditional values against the backdrop of modernism. Known for his wit and paradoxical style, Chesterton makes complex arguments engaging and accessible. The book serves as both literary criticism and a reflection on the intellectual climate of the time, highlighting the importance of orthodoxy.
