  • PEN (Organization)
    PEN (Organization): An Inventory of Its Records at the Harry Ransom Center Descriptive Summary Creator: PEN (Organization) Title: PEN (Organization) Records Dates: 1912-2008 (bulk 1926-1997) Extent: 352 document boxes, 5 card boxes (cb), 5 oversize boxes (osb) (153.29 linear feet), 4 oversize folders (osf) Abstract: The records of the London-based writers' organizations English PEN and PEN International, founded by Catharine Amy Dawson Scott in 1921, contain extensive correspondence with writer-members and other PEN centres around the world. Their records document campaigns, international congresses and other meetings, committees, finances, lectures and other programs, literary prizes awarded, membership, publications, and social events over several decades. Call Number: Manuscript Collection MS-03133 Language: The records are primarily written in English with sizeable amounts in French, German, and Spanish, and lesser amounts in numerous other languages. Non-English items are sometimes accompanied by translations. Note: The Ransom Center gratefully acknowledges the assistance of the National Endowment for the Humanities, which provided funds for the preservation, cataloging, and selective digitization of this collection. The PEN Digital Collection contains 3,500 images of newsletters, minutes, reports, scrapbooks, and ephemera selected from the PEN Records. An additional 900 images selected from the PEN Records and related Ransom Center collections now form five PEN Teaching Guides that highlight PEN's interactions with major political and historical trends across the twentieth century, exploring the organization's negotiation with questions surrounding free speech, political displacement, and human rights, and with global conflicts like World War II and the Cold War. Access: Open for research. Researchers must create an online Research Account and agree to the Materials Use Policy before using archival materials.

Then I tried to write it. Turns out this isn’t a reward so much as my own personal Good Place torture, full of desire to acknowledge and yet bereft of the words to do justice to the task. Pride of place must go to Sherryl Vint, the committee member who lived, as it were. She has stuck through this project from the very beginning as other members came and went, providing invaluable feedback, advice, and provocation in ways it is impossible to cite or fully understand.

  • K:\Critical Notice\Critnote-Env-Eth-Published
    Critical Notice of Published Articles in Environmental Ethics Holmes Rolston, III For the books Environmental Ethics: Values in and Duties to the Natural World, Conserving Natural Value, and A New Environmental Ethics: The Next Millennium for Life on Earth see separate files. Van Rensselaer Potter (Bioscience, University of Wisconsin) in "Evolving Ethical Concepts" favorably cites, reviews, and quotes, "Is There an Ecological Ethic?" in BioScience, introducing a special issue on the environment, April, 1977, 27:251-253. He also cites "Philosophical Aspects of the Environmental Crisis." Nicholas Rescher (Philosophy, University of Pittsburgh) cites and quotes as "elegantly formulated" an argument used in "Is There an Ecological Ethic?"--"Why Save Endangered Species?" in Unpopular Essays on Technological Progress (Pittsburgh: University of Pittsburgh Press, 1980), pp. 79-92 and p. 112. William K. Frankena (Philosophy, University of Michigan) cites "Is There an Ecological Ethic?" as being "very helpful, perceptive, and stimulating" although he critiques it as being too radical. "Ethics and the Environment" (see next entry). Also in the Chinese translation in Zhexue Yicong (Philosophy Digest of Translation), (Journal of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Institute of Philosophy, Beijing, Issue No. 5 (Sept. 1994):5-10, citations passim. K. E. Goodpaster (Philosophy, Business, Harvard University) also cites this essay as being helpful, but criticizes it as being not radical enough. "From Egoism to Environmentalism." These two essays (Frankena and Goodpaster) are the opening essays in K. E. Goodpaster and K. M. Sayre, Ethics and Problems of the 21st Century (Notre Dame, Ind., University of Notre Dame Press, 1979). Rolston is quoted and/or cited a dozen times in these two discussions.
