Notes, topics or text

BR thanks Parkhurst for her letter and book, Beauty: an Interpretation of Art and the Imaginative Life (1930). He has "greatly admired" the pictures and hopes to read the book soon. BR says her letter makes his "mouth water with all the lovely places you have been seeing". He has not been to the Near East or Greece. BR alludes to a large dinner where they had met before, wishing that they could meet again, but doubts that it will happen.

Parkhurst was a graduate of Bryn Mawr in 1911, 1913 and 1917 (Ph.D., philosophy). She was a Guggenheim fellow: appointed for the preparation of a work on the aesthetics of architecture, abroad; tenure, twelve months from July 15, 1931.

On letterhead of Beacon Hill School.
