n nPensees, or thoughts, is a collection of fragments on theology and philosophy written by 17th-century philosopher and mathematician Blaise Pascal. Pascal often examined the same event or example through many different lenses. Pascals religious conversion led him into a life of asceticism, and the Pensees was in many ways his lifes work. Pensees represented Pascals defense of the Christian religion, and is widely considered to be a masterpiece, and a landmark in French prose.n nWhen Paschal died, his executors, failing to recognize the basic structure of Pensees, handed them over to be edited, and they were published in 1670. Since then, the proper order of the Pensees is heavily disputed. One of the texts main strategies was to use the contradictory philosophies of Pyrrhonism and Stoicism, personalized by Montaigne on one hand, and Epictetus on the other, in order to bring the unbeliever to such despair and confusion that he would embrace God.n nThis case laminate collectors edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket. n
