The Virtues Awakened: From The Treatise On Perfect Happiness by Leonard Lessius is a philosophical and spiritual book that explores the concept of perfect happiness and how it can be achieved through the cultivation of virtues. The author, a Jesuit theologian and philosopher from the 16th century, presents a comprehensive analysis of the virtues and their role in achieving a state of perfect happiness.The book is divided into two parts. The first part introduces the concept of perfect happiness and provides a detailed explanation of the virtues. The author discusses the four cardinal virtues of prudence, justice, fortitude, and temperance, as well as the three theological virtues of faith, hope, and charity. He also explores the concept of the infused virtues, which are given to the soul by God and enable a person to live a virtuous life.The second part of the book focuses on the practical application of the virtues in everyday life. The author provides examples of how each virtue can be practiced and how they can be integrated into daily routines. He also discusses the importance of self-examination and the need for constant improvement in the cultivation of virtues.Overall, The Virtues Awakened is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers a comprehensive understanding of the virtues and their role in achieving perfect happiness. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, spirituality, or personal growth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
