What is The Story of Civilization VIII: The Age of Louis XIV about?
In 1926 Will Durant achieved world-wide renown by his now classic Story of Philosophy. Thirty-seven years and two million copies later, he and his wife have won still greater acclaim by their Story of Civilization— the series on which they have labored together since 1921 and which has been published in ten languages. They have applied philosophy to history by their "integral method" of seeing each period in "total perspective" (which is their definition of philosophy): i.e., presenting in one integrated narrative all the facets of an age — government, economy, religion, morals, manners, literature, art, music, science, and philosophy.
