Besproken in Thoth,februari, (1980) no.1, pp.21 en 22:
“Het zojuist verschenen boek van Cowen over de roosvensters zoals deze voorkomen in de Franse kathedralen van de 12de en 13de eeuw verdient zonder meer een plaats in de boekenkast van elke vrijmetselaar. De uiterst lage prijs maakt dit ook praktisch mogelijk…Kernpunt van zijn betoog is, dat het roosvenster een afbeelding is van de weg naar God, een beeld dat zich richt naar elke mens afzonderlijk…Hier is het roosvenster als een Tableau in de Loge en Cower geeft vele aanwijzingen hoe dat Tableau moet worden begrepen.”
