When we find ourselves in new and dangerous conditions, we can only look to the past for counsel. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this book, originally published as Plague Literature and now in its second edition, the philosopher Dustin Peone offers reflections on ten literary classics set during plague times. From each work, he draws one central insight that is applicable to our situation today and all future pandemics. These insights are lessons in prudence, taught by the sages of the past. This is a book about how to pursue the good life during a pandemic and what it means to flourish in dark times, not just to survive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ibidem Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/23\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.80w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783838217567\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 383821756X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-MED\"\u003eMedical\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-MED000000\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Ibidem Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44455749648621,"sku":"9783838217567","price":41.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_640b3a49-cb19-4d26-86be-14f6a920ae8f.jpg?v=1700390751","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/literary-meditations-for-pandemic-times-reflections-on-plague-classics-9783838217567","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
