The Christian Realists investigates the contributions to practical
and theoretical politics by a variety of mid-twentieth century
thinkers such as Reinhold Niebuhr, John Foster Dulles, and Herbert
Butterfield. In a period of international conflict and uncertainty
caused by the rise of Nazism and Communism and the advent of
nuclear weapons, these individuals argued for a "Christian" and a
"realistic" approach to social and political problems. It is
significant that for about a quarter century these men were
listened to on Capitol Hill, in Westminster, on university
campuses, in newspapers, as well as throughout the Western
religious establishment. This volume provides chapters devoted to
the thought of specific Christian realists: Niebuhr, Dulles, Martin
Wight, John C. Bennett, and others. The book also includes a
chapter on Niebuhr's influence on his secular disciples such as
Hans Morgenthau and Arthur Schlesinger Jr. and a chapter on the
Catholic social thinker John Courtney Murray.

The correspondence of John Peale Bishop and Allen Tate, extending
from 1929 to the time of Bishop's death in 1944, embraces the
period of the Great Depression and the coming of World War II. In
that richly eventful period in the development of American
literature, these two men of letters were continually exchanging
news and comment about the activities, opinions, successes, and
misadventures of poets, novelists, critics, publishers, and
editors; about expatriate Americans in Europe and the quickening
intellectual life of New York; and about the Agrarian movement and
what was later to be called the Southern Renascence. Archibald
MacLeish, Ernest Hemingway, Robert Penn Warren, John Crowe Ransom,
Katherine Anne Porter, Maxwell Perkins, Hart Crane, Malcolm Cowley,
Scott Fitzgerald -- all are subjects of comment, both personal and
artistic. The respect and affection of both writers for Edmund
Wilson survived their vehement political differences with him, and
their exchange of literary criticism, advice, and encouragement
with Wilson continued unabated. The letters record a warm and
steady friendship, as well as a literary relationship in which Tate
-- though the younger man -- is clearly the mentor. The freedom
with which Tate and Bishop discuss their work in progress, and the
care and candor with which they comment on one another's poems and
stories, offer the reader of this carefully edited correspondence
revealing glimpses of the creative process and the reality of the
American "republic of letters" in their time.
