Mike Grimshaw (Sociology) has two articles in a new volume, nr 6, of Logic and Philosophy of Time , celebrating 70 years of tense-logic.
These articles, drawing on extensive archival research, discuss the thought of noted philosopher Arthur Prior while he was teaching at Canterbury University College in the 1940s and 1950s, focussing on Prior as a Christian public intellectual.
The first, Prior as Naphtali: Christian commentator and pseudonymous Christian public intellectual, provides a unique window into previously unknown articles Prior wrote while he was an elder in the Presbyterian Church. The second, The Prior-Brasch Landfall Letters (1946-1958), discuss 30 letters between Arthur Prior and Charles Brasch, the editor of the journal Landfall.
Both articles situate Prior as a public intellectual interweaving religious, philosophical, cultural and political thought.
