In dozens of books, magazine articles, and essays, George Santayana
infused his philosophy with exquisite language, wit, and subtle humor,
prompting, one authority to state that he "writes philosophy more
beautifully than any other thinker since Plato." The Wisdom of George
Santayana makes accessible both his ideas and his oft-quoted aphorisms
on a variety of subjects including naturalism, creative imagination, and
spirituality without dogma. Organized by books and essays, and
highlighting key words and themes, this compilation is an excellent
introduction to the man and his work.
