Reason, experience, and God: John E. Smith in dialogue: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Reason, experience, and God: John E. Smith in dialogue" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

John E. Smith has contributed to contemporary philosophy in primarily four distinct capacities; first, as a philosopher of religion and God; second, as an indefatigable defender of philosophical reflection in its classical sense ( a sense inclusive of, but not limited to, metaphysics); third, as a participant in the reconstruction of experience and reason so boldly inaugurated by Hegel then redically transformed by the classical American pragmatists, and significantly augmented by such thinkers as Josiah Royce, william Earnest Hocking, and Alfred North Whitehead; fourth, as an interpreter of philosophical texts and traditions (Kant, Hegel, and Nietzsche no less than Charles Peirce, WIlliam James and John Dewey; German idealism as well as American; the Augustinian tradition no less than the pragmatic). Reason, Experience, and God provides an important and comprehensive look at the work of John E. Smith by collected essays which each address aspects of his life-long work. A response by John E. Smith himself draws a line of continuity between the pieces.

ERRATUM
On page 101, at the end of the fourth line after the extract the following text and footnote should be inserted:
between Augustine and Anselm on the one hand, and Aquinas on the other, is highly questionable, as is also the claim that Aquinas was saying, but in a clearer and more explicit way, what his predecessors were saying. Thomas's reservations about illuminationism, for example, included his dismissal of the ontological argument and his denial that the first principlesVerum, Bonum, Esseare "closer" to the divine essence than the sensible first principles, since both belong equally to the created intellect. In addition, influenced by the growing emphasis on the individual, Aquinas claimed that, while the existence of truth in general is self-evident, the existence of a Primal Truth is not evident to us.19
My aim is not to set the two in opposition to each other, but to suggest that nothing is to be gained by refusing to acknowledge the differences between them because by refusing to acknowledge the differences between them because both can be seen as aiming at faith seeking understanding. Potter, in fact, points out a most significant point of divergence in citing my distinction between intelligibility and demonstration; the ontological way seeks the first, and the cosmological the second.

19. It needs to be emphasized repeatedly that if the term "exist" is taken to mean occupancy in a spatio-temporal systemwhat Peirce called "secondness" or action and reaction between objectsthe term should not be used for God. Peirce saw this and insisted on the term "reality" instead; Tillich and others have made the same point. As Maritain pointed out, if "exist" is made to serve as the blanket term for all the kinds of things there are, it will have to be interpreted through a spectrum of meanings and not as if it had a univocal sense.
