TY - BOOK AU - Romeo,Maria Vita TI - The Pascal of Léon Brunschvicg PY - 2021///. N1 - 97 N2 - Brunschvicg’s name is indissolubly linked to that of Pascal. Brunschvicg’s grand editorial enterprise remains unsurpassed, as do his numerous studies directly or indirectly devoted to the author of Pensées. For Brunschvicg, Pascal was a lifelong interlocutor, not only as a philosopher and mathematician confronting the infinite, but also as a Christian polemicist whose ideas Brunschvicg did not share, but whose secrets he understood better than anybody else.
