Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to explore the possibilities and limits of Comenius’s greatest and most important work, General Consultation Concerning Restoration of Human Affairs. The humanity of people is not quite right, but not quite lost—that is the foundational anthropological assumption of the Consultation. How does Comenius understand humanity? What are human affairs? What’s wrong with them? And the most important question: Can they be somehow corrected, improved, or restored?
