This is an important book by an important writer on an important theme. A well-known classicist, Paul Woodruff, Mary Helen Thompson Professor of the Humanities at the University of Texas in Austin, has given us a significant book of one notion in two cultures. To my knowledge, this is the only book on reverence we have today, and it is the only multicultural book by a classicist who dips into both Confucius and classical Greece. It is a first step in the right direction of world interculture, focused on the crucial notion of 'reverence.' |
