                <p>As I understand you represent for the time being <rs ref="#tillich_person_id__3324" type="person">Mr. Stevens</rs> in the
                    Humanities of the Rockefeller Foundation. I write you in behalf of <rs ref="#tillich_person_id__1262" type="person">Prof. Siegfried Marck</rs> and
                    his manuscript about which <rs ref="#tillich_person_id__3324" type="person">Mr.
                        Stevens</rs> asked me to give a report. I have talked to him before he left
                    for the West coast, and I have recommended the book which I think has a very
                    high scholarly quality. I remember that <rs ref="#tillich_person_id__3324" type="person">Mr. Stevens</rs> had a rather favorable reaction.</p>
                <p>I expressed at that occasion also some criticisms about the use of too much
                    German material which is not known in this country. <rs ref="#tillich_person_id__1262" type="person">Prof. Marck</rs> agreed with me
                    that the sections referred to<!-- hinter <q>referred to</q> etw. gestrichen -->
                    had to be changed in order to make the book more
                    readable<!-- eigentlich <q>readible</q> --> for the American public. I would
                    like to know whether he can expect a financial help for a translator. Since the
                    voyage of <rs ref="#tillich_person_id__3324" type="person">Mr. Stevens</rs> has
                    delayed the matter for several months I would be grateful to you if you gave <rs ref="#tillich_person_id__1262" type="person">Prof. Marck</rs> a green signal
                    that he can go ahead with the translation.</p>

                     <p>Paul Tillich (20. August 1886 – 22. Oktober 1965) war ein deutscher evangelischer Theologe und Religionsphilosoph. Nach seiner Tätigkeit als Feldprediger im Ersten Weltkrieg lehrte er an verschiedenen Universitäten in Deutschland, bis er 1933 emigrieren musste und in den USA wirkte, unter anderem in New York, Harvard und Chicago. Tillich entwickelte eine Theologie der Kultur und verstand Religion als das „was uns unbedingt angeht“. In seiner „Systematic Theology“ formulierte er die Methode der Korrelation und deutete Gott als „Macht des Seins“. Seine Arbeiten verbinden Theologie, Philosophie und Existenzdenken und hatten großen Einfluss auf das religiöse Denken der Moderne.</p>
