The Everlasting Man

Exploring the intersection of myth and philosophy, the book delves into early human civilization, beginning with 'cave men' and their pagan beliefs. Chesterton argues that these societies created a divide between myth and thought, which Christianity later reconciled following the Crucifixion. This work serves as a compelling ideological defense of Christianity, highlighting its significance in human spirituality. C. S. Lewis regarded it as one of the most influential books he encountered, underscoring its impact on theological discourse.
