Publisher's Synopsis
""The Nemesis of Faith"" is a philosophical novel written by James Anthony Froude in the mid-19th century. The story follows the life of a young man named Markham who is struggling with his faith and beliefs. He is torn between his religious upbringing and the new ideas and values of the Victorian era. Markham's journey takes him through various intellectual and emotional challenges as he tries to reconcile his doubts and questions with his faith. Along the way, he encounters several characters who represent different perspectives on religion and spirituality, including a skeptical scientist, a devout clergyman, and a passionate atheist. The novel explores themes of doubt, skepticism, faith, and the search for truth in a changing world. It is a thought-provoking and engaging work that offers insights into the intellectual and spiritual struggles of the Victorian era.It would have been nothing but a ""You must not."" He would defend the place against me as an enemy; but of my own soul might become what I could myself make of it; he would have been troubled enough to have known what to do with that. Well, now for my duties (I suppose I may be extreme in them), and the blue chintz curtains, and the Penny Club; and may God guide me!This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
