Specificatii
This book is a history of vegetarianism as told through the
writings of some of history's great thinkers and writers. The
author Howard Williams travels back in time to Antiquity and from
there moves through the centuries all the way up to his
contemporaries in the 19th century. Leo Tolstoy was impressed with
'The Ethics of Diet'; he had it translated into his native Russian
and wrote the narrative for the Russian edition. Throughout the
ages, many of the world's finest minds detested the eating of flesh
and the cruelty that humans inflict on their fellow creatures.
Buddha advocated a vegetarian diet for his monks and stated: There
hath been slaughter for the sacrifice, and slaying for the meat,
but henceforth none shall spill the blood of life, nor taste of
flesh; seeing that knowledge grows and life is one, and mercy
cometh to the merciful. Pythagoras abstained from eating meat
around the age of nineteen as he believed that abstaining from
flesh kept the soul pure. Lamblichus, who studied Pythagoras stated
that the great mathematician; Enjoyed abstinence from the flesh of
animals, because it is conducive to peace; for those who are
accustomed to abominate the slaughter of other animals as
iniquitous and unnatural, will think it still more unjust and
unlawful to kill a man or to engage in war. Arthur Schopenhauer,
the German philosopher said; Since compassion for animals is so
intimately associated with goodness of character, it may be
confidently asserted that whoever is cruel to animals cannot be a
good man. Plutarch, Seneca, Plato, Shelley and Wagner all grace
these pages and many more... Thoreau observes, One farmer says to
me, You cannot live on vegetable food solely, for it furnishes
nothing to make the bones with; and so he religiously devotes a
part of his day to supplying himself with the raw material of
bones; walking all the while he talks behind his oxen, which, with
vegetable-made bones, jerk him and his lumbering plough along in
spite of every obstacle.
