Abstract

The author sees Parsifal as setting the essential problem for the present age. From a study of the grail myths, Spieler attempts to point the way to a synoptic view of experience. Basic to the project is his view that everything is a product of the logos which permeates all of reality. It is by virtue of the logical law, as the causal nexus of experience, that a reconciliation of fragmented experience is seen to be possible. A carefully documented and interesting study.--D. P. B.
