User:Tom Morris/Person and Act

Person and Act is a philosophical book by Karol Wojtyła, later Pope John Paul II. It was translated into English as The Acting Person by Andrzej Potocki in 1979. The work is dependent on the work of Max Scheler,

According to Tad Szulc, it was "a book on phenomenology so difficult that his own Kraków priests joked that if one of them is sentenced to Purgatory, he will be sprung free upon reading the entire text. The story extracted the nearest thing to a belly laugh from the cardinal."^[1]
