Rezension zu „Spaemann, R: Persons “
Persons is a significant contribution to contemporary thinking and, as such, needs to be read. Sue Patterson, The Journal of Theological Studies Until recently relatively unknown outside Germany, the owrk of the Christian moral philosopher Robert Spaemann is now commanding the attention of English readers; this elegant translation of his work on personhood will do much to further his reputation as a thinker of uncommon breadth and penetration...It is a work of a remarkably poised and fully realized intelligence, full of passages of breathtaking perception, all the more striking for their calm modest simplicity. John Webster, The Expository Times
