The Personalist Forum seeks to provide a forum for thinkers interested in exploring two personalist hypotheses: that it is the personal dimension of our being and living that is definitive of our humanity, and that the personal dimension of being-human offers a clue to the ordering of reality. Having no ready-made answers to offer nor a creed to demand, we take personal categories seriously and speak in language that strives for maximum comphrehensibility.
The Personalist Forum is a journal committed to the irreducibility of personal or moral categories. Though we are quite prepared to print contributions questioning that assumption, our first common commitment is to take it seriously, whether to derive its consequences or to criticize it, but to take it seriously. The second is the commitment to address issues that confront persons. Again we are prepared to print contributions devoted to problems of pure textual scholarship, when relevant to our shared concerns. We welcome, for instance, articles on the meaning of the category 'person', seeking less a consensus than a clarification of alternatives among us. However, our primary purpose is to publish papers that address issues of being human in this world. Finally, the third is our commitment to write in language that can be understood by intelligent readers, strenuously avoiding jargon whenever possible. We expect our contributors, if at all possible without loss of clarity, to write of, say, hearing a person speaking rather than locutionary behavior manifested by the subject was observed by the researcher.
...... leads us to the conviction that philosophy must strive earnestly for maximal comprehensibility. The technical language of philosophic techne , inner code of philosophic systems, need not be always illegitimate, but its use must be justified by clear and present need. Wherever possible, philosophy must speak the language understood by persons, the language of ordinary experience. It must, to be sure, speak it better, more precisely, more sensitively, but its goal must be to evoke understanding, not to impress with obscurity.
