Publisher's Description

La obra clásica de C. S. Lewis que examina los cuatro tipos de amor humano: el afecto, la amistad, el amor erótico y el amor a Dios.

En esta obra, Lewis analiza los cuatro tipos de amor que existen en la lengua griega: storge, la forma más básica; philia, la más rara y quizá la más profunda; eros, el amor apasionado; y ágape, el amor a Dios, el más grande y menos egoísta. A lo largo de este ensayo compasivo y razonado, anima a los lectores a abrirse a todas las formas del amor: la clave de la comprensión que nos acerca a Dios. «No hay inversión segura. Amar en absoluto es ser vulnerable... acercarse a Dios, no tratando de evitar los sufrimientos inherentes a todos los amores, sino aceptándolos y ofreciéndoselos a Él; despojándose de toda armadura defensiva. Si nuestros corazones necesitan romperse, y si Él elige esto como la forma en que deben romperse, que así sea».

En Cuatro amores, C. S. Lewis explora el amor para ayudarte a

·        Fortalecer tus relaciones interpersonales.

·        Comprender la diferencia entre los placeres necesarios y los placeres de apreciación, y entre el amor-necesidad y el amor-regalo.

·        Cuidar a las personas de tu vida, evitar las trampas y mejorar tu relación Dios.

Los cuatro amores es un espejo de nuestra sociedad actual y no deja lugar a dudas de que nuestra comprensión moderna del amor está muy mal entendida.

-----

The revered author's classic work that examines the four types of human love: affection, friendship, erotic love, and the love of God.

In this work Lewis examines four varieties of love, as approached from the Greek language: storge, the most basic form; philia, the rarest and perhaps most insightful; eros, passionate love; and agape, the love of God, the greatest and least selfish. Throughout this compassionate and reasoned study, he encourages readers to open themselves to all forms of love—the key to understanding that brings us closer to God. "There is no safe investment. To love at all is to be vulnerable . . . draw nearer to God, not be trying to avoid the sufferings inherent in all loves, but by accepting them and offering them to Him; throwing away all defensive armor. If our hearts need to be broken, and if He chooses this as the way in which they should break, so be it."

In Four Loves, C. S. Lewis explores love to help you

  • Strengthen your interpersonal relationships
  • Understand the different between needed pleasures and appreciation pleasures and need-love and gift-love
  • Care for the people in your life, avoid pitfalls, and improve your relationship God

The Four Loves holds a mirror to our current society and leaves no doubt that our modern understanding of love is heavily misunderstood.


Author Bio

He was a Fellow and Tutor in English Literature at Oxford University until 1954, when he was unanimously elected to the Chair of Medieval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge University, a position he held until his retirement. He wrote more than thirty books, allowing him to reach a vast audience, and his works continue to attract thousands of new readers every year. His most distinguished and popular accomplishments include Out of the Silent Planet, The Great Divorce, The Screwtape Letters, and the universally acknowledged classics in The Chronicles of Narnia. To date, the Narnia books have sold over 100 million copies and have been transformed into three major motion pictures.
