Description

Originally published in 1942, this book constitutes the companion volume to The Heart of Pascal (1945); both volumes were formed using selections from Pascal's Pensees. The text gathers together a series of selections, presented in French, which illustrate Pascal's Christian faith and thoughts on the relationship between man and God. An appendix and preface by the editor are also provided. This is a highly informative book that will be of value to anyone with an interest in Pascal and his late thought.
