Table of Contents"Introduction 1: ""In the Spirit of Origen:"" Balthasar's Exploration of Patristic Versions of the Spiritual Senses 2: Balthasar's Reading of Medieval and Early Modern Versions of the Spiritual Senses 3: The Spiritual Senses in a Modern Idiom: Balthasar's Contemporary Interlocutors 4: Balthasar's Distinctive Rearticulation of the Doctrine of the Spiritual Senses 5: Perceiving Splendor: The Role of the Spiritual Senses in Balthasar's Theological Aesthetics 6: Seeing (Spiritually) is Believing: The Spiritual Senses and Faith Conclusion"Reviews[A] fine study...This work could be said to provide a very important guide to a crucial (and easily misperceived) tool in Balthasar's fundamental theology. Mark McInroy's elucidation of the inner workings of Balthasar's theological epistemology helps us understand more profoundly how to construe the Swiss thinker's real achievements....McInroy gives us a thought-provoking contribution to the modern/postmodern conversation about how 'knowing' happens....This is an enormously well conceived and handsomely well-achieved study. It goes without saying that it will forward Balthasar studies hugely. --Journal of the American Academy of Religion The study is strongest in the story it tells about what, exactly, Balthasar takes from the Fathers, how he differs from his contemporaries in his use of the doctrine, and the importance he places on the interweaving of bodily and spiritual perception. -- The Journal of Religion [A] fine study...This work could be said to provide a very important guide to a crucial (and easily misperceived) tool in Balthasar's fundamental theology.
