Publisher's Synopsis

""From The Savoy: An Essay On Going To Church"" is a thought-provoking essay written by the renowned playwright and essayist, George Bernard Shaw in 1905. The essay explores the concept of attending church and the role it plays in society. Shaw presents his unique perspective on religion and the church, challenging traditional beliefs and practices.The essay is structured as a conversation between two characters, a man and a woman, who discuss their views on attending church. The man argues that going to church is a necessary part of life, while the woman questions the relevance of church in modern society. Shaw uses this conversation to present his own ideas on religion and the church, highlighting the flaws in traditional beliefs and practices.Throughout the essay, Shaw emphasizes the importance of critical thinking and rationality in approaching religion. He argues that blind faith and adherence to tradition are not enough to sustain a meaningful spiritual life. Instead, he advocates for a more individualistic approach to religion, where people are free to explore their own beliefs and practices.""From The Savoy: An Essay On Going To Church"" is a thought-provoking and insightful work that challenges traditional beliefs and practices. It offers a unique perspective on religion and spirituality that is still relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
