The UNIVERSITY of CHICAGO PRESS 5784 Ellis Avenue, Chicago, Illinois Our Contributors' Page Our readers are already pleasantly acquainted with JOSEPHINE HAMMOND, late Professor of English at Reed College, through her article on Amy Lowell in the October number of THE PERSONALIST, as well as for her contributions to other Reviews, her pageants and plays. The October article called forth wide comment and we feel that the present essay is even better. It will be followed by another on Lord Dunsany. DR. BRIGHTMAN is the successor of Dr. Bowne in the chair of philosophy at Boston University and is already widely known for his work. He has previously contributed to THE PERSONAList and has been from its inception one of its most enthusiastic supporters. MR. J. E. TURNER of Mossley Hill, Liverpool, England, is also an old acquaintance of our readers. We feel ourselves especially fortunate in securing his reactions to the Gifford Lectures on Personality for this number. All readers of DR. YOUTZ' previous article in the April number on A Missing World have been waiting with interest for the final installment. It is a source of regret that the capacity of our magazine is still so inconveniently small as to compel the division of long articles. What way lies Christian Unity; Miracle and Christi- anity; Le Revue de Strasbourg on its feet again; American Dr. Harley's League of Nations and the New Inter- To the Gentle Personalist WE WE MUST beg the forbearance of our readers in not presenting with this number the promised articles on The Ring and the Book and The Word of Words. They will come along next time however and we will try not to repeat the mistake of promising more than our limit of space will allow. I BELIEVE in personality as the power of self-conscious- I believe in personality as the World-ground, the I believe in personality as the fundamental reality of life, man's highest possession, the source of all creativity, the perfect realization of which is his supreme goal. I believe that human personality is fully realized only as it comprehends and gives itself to the will of the Infinite Personality, or God, "in whom we live, and move, and have our being." We desire more responses on the personalist's Credo. We did not intend our own statement to be final. Will you not help us? For the best Credo we will send free a year's subscription. |
