                <p>I have been invited to give a lecture on Existentialism at the Philosophical Club
                    of the College of the City of <rs ref="#tillich_place_id__319" type="place">New
                        York</rs> on <date when="1947-03-27">March 27th</date>. For the preparation
                    of this lecture, I should very much like to consult your views as expressed in
                    the Journal of the History of Ideas about a year ago.<note type="ea">Gemeint

                    available at the University of <rs ref="#tillich_place_id__1082" type="place">Toronto</rs> for another month or two. I wonder, therefore whether you

                    it to you as soon as I have completed my lecture. If you do have an offprint at
                    hand and can send it to me, I should appreciate it if you could let me have it
                    soon, as I do not have much time left.</p>
                <p>I should like to say again that I was very happy to make your acquaintance during
                    my recent visit in <rs ref="#tillich_place_id__319" type="place">New York</rs>,
                    and I do hope to be able to have a talk with you soon again. I was, of course,

                     <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>
