内容説明

Until the 19th century, atheism was widely thought to be not just false but impossible or crazy. By the early-20th century, however, all that had changed. Indeed, according to some of our most influential "culture-heroes", such as Marx, Nietzsche and Freud, it is religion that is pathological and it is aetheism that distinguishes our culture from that of the past. Many major texts are little-known, such as "An Answer to Priestley" (1782). Similiarly, "An Investigation of the Essence of the Deity" (1789) is rare. Spanning the 18th and 19th centuries, this collection includes central works by militant and avowed such atheists as Charles Bradlaugh, as well as crypto- and unvowed aetheists such as Anthony Collins.
