5.0 out of 5 stars About THE MIND AND THE MAKER - (from the back of the book), May 27, 2008

This review is from: The Mind of the Maker: An Examination of God the Creator reflected in the artistic imagination (Paperback)

"Dorothy Sayers, distinguished theologian, playwright, and novelist, believes that when the Christian creeds are examined in the light of direcct experience their affirmations illuminate the specific nature and process of the creative mind.

"In THE MIND OF THE MAKER Miss Sayers examines the creative mind at work and unfolds the subtle parallelism between the divine and the artistic imagination. Not resting content however with establishing truth by analogy, Miss Sayers then proceeds to illustrate the fundamental truth of the Christian doctrine of God and man as displayed in the remarkable comparison of divine and human creativity."

Review blurb:
