The Archbishop and the Actor

[Julia Messenger]

Hello

I was re-reading Edward Maisel's book on the AT a few days ago and noted in his introduction an Archbishop of Canterbury, William Temple, is alluded to have equated the technique with "the Divine Creativity of Christian Faith".  There is no page annotation to further this claim and I wondered if anyone here has any further info on the background of this?

Best regards

Hello list, Julia: That is the black hellish depth of Maisel. He clearly had access to many sources and he fails to identify a single one. That, and his rather snide attitude toward the Technique make his introduction to the Selected Writings a huge aggravation for any serious reader. I could not find any Alexander reference in writings about Temple. Searching the Graduate Theological Union Library in Berkeley about 25 years ago. Temple was described as 'the Red Dean.' for his socialist politics. More recent writers have called him a source for the Liberation Theology of the '70s-80s. He did write that it was impossible to be a Christian and a Capitalist at the same time. I DID find a wonderful quote from Temple about the fallibility of self perception. It began with the words 'When we open our eyes, as babies...' I haven't been able to find it again. Good luck looking John Coffin --- On Fri, 5/24/13, Julia Messenger <alexander.t...@gmail.com> wrote:
