                <p>A few weeks ago I sent you a letter from <rs ref="#tillich_person_id__3491" type="person">Mr. Dayton</rs> telling me that he intends to continue the
                    personal reliability insurance of my predecessor in <rs ref="#tillich_place_id__769" type="place">East Hampton</rs>. I asked you
                    whether this was the same insurance you intended to give me. Today I have
                    received the enclosed letter and policy. Now it seems as if there are two
                    different policies of which yours is more expensive than that of <rs ref="#tillich_person_id__3491" type="person">Mr. Dayton</rs>. Please let me
                    know by telephone or letter what you suggest me to do.</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>
