	John Macmurray - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		John Macmurray (1891 - 1976) was a Christian, communitarian moral philosopher.
		After service in World War I he pursued a career in philosophy first at Balliol and then at University College, London (preceding A.J.Ayer) and Edinburgh University.
		Interest in him has been rekindled because apparently he was a significant influence on the young Tony Blair.

		Macmurray himself maintained that a writer's works should be allowed to "speak for themselves." Though the bulk of this paper is descriptive, some analysis is unavoidable.
		Whitehead wrote in 1929, "The safest general characterization of the European philosophical tradition is that it consists of a series of footnotes to Plato." The Greek notion of an eternal and changeless deity dominated the early notion of Christendom and is still to be found in strength in the hymnals.
		Macmurray showed in 1927 that science deals exclusively with contingency and not with certainty, that scientific method necessarily involves experiment, and that it could, and in his view should, be applied to religion as well.

	CHAPTER II
		Macmurray is anxious to avoid the temptation to understand the agent or the person in simply egocentric terms, which he finds prevalent in much of modern philosophy.
		Macmurray, therefore, suggests that the visions of society offered by Hobbes and Rousseau are inadequate because they are aimed only at the protection of individuals in the pursuit of their private interests.
		Macmurray completed his Gifford lectures in 1954 as the fruit of a lifelong search for the essential meaning of what it is to be a human being.

	Introduction (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-01)
		The purpose of the John Macmurray Fellowship, which was organised in 1993, is to make more widely known the writings and philosophy of John Macmurray, and to bring together for study and discussion those interested in his life and work.
		The Fellowship encourages the discussion and analysis of important subjects in which John Macmurray was particularly interested and which concern us today: the family, community, freedom, politics, education, art, science, religion.
		It believes, with Macmurray, that philosophy is concerned not only with reflective interpretation, but also with the living of life in its wholeness.

		John Macmurray was keenly aware that his philosophy required a radical shift in outlook from that of the dominant philosophical tradition.
		Macmurray argues to the contrary, by an analysis of human freedom itself, that an isolated individual is a contradiction in terms.
		If, as Macmurray maintains, the intention of friendship is implanted in everyone’s human nature, no matter how deeply buried, then it is not surprising that the human race has accumulated, however haltingly and ambiguously, a store of prescriptions and admonitions which serve as guidelines to that end.

		When the Scottish Protestant philosopher John Macmurray (1891-1976) died, his obituary in the University of Edinburgh Journal was written by a former student, James Mitchell.
		Macmurray's ideas provide good support for what subsequent liberation theologians mean when they speak of "praxis"--the creative integration of reflection and action.
		Macmurray's insights into the meaning of love embodied in personal relationships and his questioning of the values of duty and service were often misunderstood.

		Dr McIntosh is a John Macmurray scholar and a feminist theologian.
		The implications of John Macmurray’s concept of the person are far reaching and, while critiquing the problematic aspects of his philosophy, she is bringing his work into dialogue with contemporary feminist theology; thus taking forward the insights of both Macmurray and feminist theology.

		As Macmurray (1957) characterizes it, if we are to act as agents able to make a genuine difference to the world around us, the world must be in itself indeterminate.
		Macmurray's (1957, 1961) accounts of the logical forms of the material, organic, and personal are ideals that were arrived at as a result of a form of contemplative consideration of what seemingly must be the case for the personal (as we then knew it) to be possible.
		And this, I think, is where the pathbreaking importance of Macmurray's work lies: he provides an important set of wayfinding tools or practices, language-games, with which to begin any explorations of what, overall, a psychology as a moral science of action might look like.

		John Macmurray was born in 1891 and died in 1976 in Edinburgh having invited the wrong curly haired psychiatrist to dinner just before he did.
		Macmurray saw philosophy as a grounded universal matter akin to everyone's struggle to find their 'way of life'.
		Macmurray's project was (modestly!) to rethink the whole field of philosophy from a new starting point.

		This volume presents a selection of the philosophical writings of John Macmurray (1891-1976), who is now receiving more attention because of his emphasis on the relations of persons.

		Macmurray was interested in understanding what it means to be a person.
		Macmurray’s highly original work — mostly written in the 30s, 40s and 50s — is little known.
		Given this background, it is all the more curious that his work is so little known and so little understood.
