The Debate Between Pride and Lowliness is a philosophical treatise written by Francis Thynn. The book explores the dichotomy between pride and humility, examining the virtues and vices associated with each. Thynn delves into the nature of pride, discussing how it can lead to arrogance and a lack of empathy for others. He also explores the nature of humility, arguing that it is a virtue that can lead to greater self-awareness and compassion for others. Throughout the book, Thynn draws on a variety of philosophical and literary sources to support his arguments, including works by Plato, Aristotle, and Shakespeare. Ultimately, The Debate Between Pride and Lowliness offers a nuanced and thought-provoking exploration of one of the most fundamental questions of human nature.1876. Thynn's long narrative poem, The Debate Between Pride and Lowliness, is thought to have inspired the form of the work and the fundamental idea for Greene's Quip for an Upstart Courtier or a Quaint Dispute between Velvet-Breeches and Cloth-Breeches, that of the medieval dream-vision.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
