The Call and the Response

By Jean-Louis Chrétien

Book Overview

In the aptly titled The Call and the Response, renowned philosopher and theologian Jean-Louis Chr?tien revisits a favorite theme: how human life is shaped by the experience of call and response, explored using art as a context.

For Chr?tien, art is about acts in response to what the artist sees or hears and how these acts provoke responses from viewers. Deeply spiritual and intellectual without being academic, his arguments are unique, in both style and content.
