Recenzii

"I consider this volume a welcomed contribution to American philosophy because it portrays American personalistic idealism as a living philosophic tradition, not as something that died during the later half of the twentieth- century. It also enables contemporary philosophers who are not personalists themselves, but who are interested in American philosophy and in fostering “personal - human - values in a world rapidly undergoing depersonalization” (p. xiii), to have an informed engagement with American personalism -both in its traditional form and its more contemporary versions." - in: Transactions of the Charles S. Peirce Society
"Personalism Revisited is one of the latest offerings in the Value Inquiry Book Series (VIBS), belonging to the subseries Histories and Addresses of Philosophical Societies (HAPS). Editions Rodopi and the VIBS are doing the philosophical community a great boon by encouraging the leaders of the various philosophical societies to gather and publish their histories before those histories begin to pass away … Hull wrote a foreword and compiled an outstanding index for Personalism Revisited and is by anyone’s standards doing yeoman’s work for the profession … HAPS is, as Hull states ‘saving from obscurity and loss the elements of much philosophy done in the post-modern era’ … [the archival committee has done] a tremendous job, and the amount of effort expended in documenting and structuring this volume has been immense … If this volume documents one thing clearly, it is that the dynamic conversation of philosophical minds, sincerely and openly engaged, can lead to the development of more adequate perspectives. The editors of this volume have done an excellent job of presenting these essays in ways that make it possible for attentive readers now and in the indefinite future to see how philosophy can work when it does work" - in: Journal of Speculative Philosophy, Vol. 19, No 1 (2005), pp. 81-87
