"This pamphlet criticizes an earlier work by Father Bougeant, which discusses all the animal functions and operations of the brute-creations (which different philosophers had ascribed to different causes, such as mechanism, instinct, or substantial forms) as entirely owing to the operation of evil spirits. The present author considers Bougeant's discussion of (1) the understanding of brutes; and (2) the necessity of a language between brutes. The present author also notes that in the original article there is such a confusion of sentiments, such a jumble of light and darkness, truth and error, that one knows not where to being, or in what order to proceed, how to disentangle truth from error, to distinguish the cool dictates of reason and philosophy form the wild flights of imagination and fancy"--Book.

"Der Mensch kann nur von Gott reden, indem er implizit oder explizit Vorstellungen von ihm hat, sich sozusagen ein "Bild" von ihm macht. Das Alte Testament kennt eine Vielfalt an solchen Bildern. Während anthropomorphe Vorstellungen häufig sind, dienen Tiere nur selten als Sprachbildspender. Die Tiergestaltigkeit Gottes im Alten Testament wird als Randgebiet der Forschung oft mit Unbehagen oder gar nicht beachtet. Häufig scheint sogar die Meinung vorzuherrschen, dass es keine Vorstellung von Gott in Tiergestalt im Alten Testament gebe. Aber nicht nur in der Umwelt des alten Israel sind Götterdarstellungen in Tiergestalt häufig anzutreffen, sondern auch das Alte Testament selbst kennt solche Motive, die in der vorliegenden Arbeit erstmals systematisch untersucht werden."
