karagozian yes, I found this "sense of wisdom as founded on a sense of social continuity"

Sense is a synonym of feeling, so you an find many such collocations
 A sense of something can also mean an estimation of the extent of it, in my opinion,
as in this example:
But only a clear sense of betrayal will allow the reasonable assessment that puts betrayal in its proper place.

What do you others think?
