Hartz, Jones to Join Teachers at Salzburg

Two of the College's experts on democratic theory will teach at the Salzburg Seminar in American Studies next summer, the Seminar's Cambridge headquarters revealed yesterday in a preliminary announcement of the 1952 faculty.

Louis Hartz '40, associate professor of Government and Howard Mumford Jones, professor of English, will join seven other American educators at Salzburg, Austria, where they will conduct lectures and Seminars for European scholars and professional people from 14 different nations.

Hartz's specialty is the development of democratic theory, his most popular course being Social Sciences 118, "Democratic Theory and Its Critics." Jones has published a number of items on academic freedom, the most recent of which is an article in the latest Atlantic Monthly explaining his reasons for refusing to sign the University of California's loyalty oath when invited to teach there two summers ago. His biggest course here is English 170, a survey of American literature.
