Self-Development And Self-Abnegation (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162887197)

Self-Development And Self-Abnegation is a book written by Frances Power Cobbe, a prominent Victorian-era feminist and social reformer. The book explores the concept of self-development and self-abnegation, two seemingly contradictory ideas that Cobbe argues are actually complementary and necessary for personal growth and fulfillment. She argues that while self-development is important for achieving one's goals and realizing one's potential, self-abnegation is also necessary for cultivating virtues such as empathy, compassion, and selflessness. Through a series of essays and reflections, Cobbe explores how individuals can balance these two impulses in their lives, and how doing so can lead to greater happiness, fulfillment, and social progress. The book is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the human condition, and remains relevant to contemporary discussions of self-improvement and personal growth.THIS 44 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Studies New and Old of Ethical and Social Subjects, by Frances Power Cobbe.
