- Description
- ParsT confronts and resolves the dual focus evident throughout CT: the intricate variety of human error and the radical simplicity of penance. Echoing GP--and recalling the theology of spiritual progress reflected in FrT, PardT, ClT, and Mel--ParsT revels in the diversity that defines the human while simultaneously asserting the goal of unity with the divine.
