A leading philosopher and theologian, Jean-Louis Chretien uses
poetry and painting to explore a theme that runs through all of his
work: how human life is shaped by the experience of call and
response. For Chretien, we live by responding to the call of
experience with words, gestures, expressions, and silence. In
luminous meditations on Rembrandt, Delacroix, Manet, Verlaine,
Keats, and other artists, Chretien shows how "talking hands of
painters" and the "secretly lucid" voices of poets confront the
finitude of the human body. Hand to Hand is a deeply cultured
renewal of art in all its provocative, transforming, spiritual
presence.
