| Summary: | Bridge to Wonder is built on two key metaphors; the practical but also aesthetic connector which is a bridge, and the complex dynamism of interlacing in a multi-stranded rope. González-Andrieu argues that art and religion can be a bridge connecting us to beauty and that the diverse areas of inquiry in the arts and the religious are the strands which, interlaced, form the equivalent of a rope or cable. The two metaphors are brought together in the Golden Gate Bridge spanning San Francisco Bay, which is suspended across the Bay and able to move in response to its environment by means of its multi-stranded cables. |
