Description
Summary:"This volume documents a sustained conversation between two of the most important American philosophers of the twentieth century and at the same time pays homage to an enduring intellectual friendship.". - "In 1922, Charles Hartshorne, then an aspiring young philosopher, wrote to Edgar Sheffield Brightman, a preeminent philosopher of religion and one of the most prolific members of the Boston School of Personalism. For twenty-three years, the two carried out an unusually rich and intensive correspondence, and remarkably, almost every letter was preserved. - The letters are presented here along with additional material that follows the philosophers' lives after 1945, when Brightman's ill health prevented him from continuing the correspondence."--BOOK JACKET
