              The Santayana Edition
We are extremely pleased to announce that in August 2004 the Santayana
Edition was awarded a grant by the National Endowment for the
Humanities. This is a renewal grant for $100,000 in outright funds with an
offer of up to $50,000 in federal matching funds, which carries NEH
funding for The Works of George Santayana through July of 2006. With this critical
support from the NEH, together with continued financial commitment from the Indiana
University School of Liberal Arts, the project is committed to publish volume seven,
which consists of the five books of The Life of Reason, and volume eight, Three
Philosophical Poets, in the next two years. On the basis of this internal and external
support and with generous help from foundations and private donors, we were able to
hire a third full-time person to the Santayana Edition staff. David Spiech, who has an
educational background in German, journalism, and editing, joined us in March 2004
as an editorial assistant.
In October 2004, the Santayana Edition is to relocate in a different building on
the IUPUI campus. The new offices of the Edition are part of The Institute for
American Thought suite, which includes shared space for the library and archival
resources of the Peirce Edition Project and the Santayana Edition. These special
research collections may be of particular interest to scholars:

The Letters of George Santayana, Book Six, 1937-1940, was published in June,
and we anticipate thai Book Seven, 1941-1947, will be available in late fall of 2004.
