Thule, Or Vertues Historie is a book written by Francis Rous and published in 1878. The book tells the story of Thule, a mythical island located in the far north of Europe. According to the book, Thule is a place of great virtue and purity, where the people live in harmony with nature and each other.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of life on Thule. The first chapter describes the geography and climate of the island, while the second chapter focuses on the customs and traditions of the Thulians. Subsequent chapters delve into the Thulians' religion, education, government, and economy.Throughout the book, Rous emphasizes the virtues of the Thulians, such as their honesty, courage, and generosity. He also contrasts the Thulians with the corrupt and decadent societies of Europe, suggesting that the Thulians represent a model for a more just and virtuous society.Thule, Or Vertues Historie is a work of fiction, but it reflects Rous's own political and social beliefs. Rous was a Puritan minister and politician who lived in England during the 17th century, a time of great political and religious upheaval. The book can be seen as a critique of the corruption and injustice that Rous saw in English society, as well as a vision of a more ideal society based on Puritan values.This Book Is In English.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
