Martyrdom of Man

(William) Winwood Reade

The Martyrdom of Man, published in 1872 by British historian William Winwood Reade, presents a secular history of the Western world. The book is divided into four main sections: 'War', 'Religion', 'Liberty', and 'Intellect', exploring themes of human struggle and development. Notable for its influence on figures such as Cecil Rhodes and H. G. Wells, it has been recognized for its ambitious scope and unique perspective on human history. Reade's work remains significant in discussions of historical narrative and philosophy.
