Book Overview

""Sermons, On The Duties Of The Great"" is a collection of religious speeches delivered by Jean Baptiste Massillon in 1776. The book focuses on the responsibilities and duties of those in positions of power and influence, such as kings, nobles, and wealthy individuals. Massillon stresses the importance of humility, charity, and justice in the exercise of power, and warns against the dangers of pride and corruption. The sermons are written in a clear and persuasive style, and offer valuable insights into the moral and ethical challenges faced by leaders in Massillon's time, as well as in our own. This book is a classic of French religious literature, and remains relevant today for anyone interested in the intersection of faith and politics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
