About “The Everlasting Man”
The Everlasting Man is a response to H. G. Wells’ The Outline of History, which presents human history and religion as products of natural selection and material causes. In contrast, G. K. Chesterton argues for Christianity, emphasizing the unique nature of human beings compared to animals and the distinctiveness of Christ and the Church among other religions. Written in Chesterton’s characteristic style, known from works like Orthodoxy and Heretics, the book uses humor and symbolism rather than scholarly analysis. It offers an outline of history from a Catholic perspective, challenging modern secular views.
