"You hold in your hands a sparkling masterpiece by a legendary master of Continental thought remarkably well-rendered into English. As soon as you catch your breath, wonder strikes yet again as you journey through the poetics of the sensible with Stanislas Breton as your guide. * William C. Hackett, Assistant Professor of Philosophy, Saint Meinrad Seminary and School of Theology, USA * Breton's Neoplatonic and Scholastic background enables him to go beyond phenomenology in exploring the ontological and cosmological significance of the senses. The style of this contemplative essay, enriched by imaginative reading of Scripture, conveys the warmth and benevolence of one who always used both heart and head in his plucky ""respondens dico"" to the questions of the hour. He ends by inviting our senses to perceive traces of divine presence in icons, cathedrals, Kyoto gardens, and in the faces of a sufferer and of a child. * Joseph S. O'Leary, Former Roche Professor for Interreligious Dialogue, Nanzan University, Japan *"
