Rezensionen
»This work provides the reader interested in Cassirer's conception of symbolic form with a concise exposition of it crossing over much of the same ground that is treated in other recent interpretations. Its originality lies largely in the presence of instances of Japanese forms and images as they bear on Cassirer's analysis. To date, no other interpretation of Cassirer's thought takes this approach.« Thora Ilin Bayer, Philosophy East and West
