| Summary | "Les Divins Oracles de Zoroastre, ancien Philosophe Grec, Interpretez en Rime" by Francois Habert de Berry is a philosophical and poetic work likely written in the late 16th century. The text interprets the ancient oracles attributed to Zoroaster, offering moral commentary in both French and Latin verse. It explores themes of spirituality, the nature of the soul, and the pursuit of virtue over earthly pleasures. At the start of the work, readers are introduced to the profound thoughts and spiritual insights of Zoroaster, emphasizing the importance of distinguishing one's soul from corporeal desires. The text reflects on the transient nature of earthly life, urging the reader to seek higher understanding and connect with the divine. There is a vivid discussion of how the soul is immortal and deserves to transcend the limitations of the physical body, encouraging a life devoted to virtue and enlightenment over sensual indulgence. The opening thus sets the tone for a deeper exploration of moral and metaphysical ideas that characterize Zoroastrian philosophy. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
