Notice biographique
Philip Berrigan was a social activist and writer whose acts of civil disobedience during the Vietnam War made him a household name in the peace movement. Younger brother of Daniel Berrigan, he became a priest like his brother, but with the Josephites instead of the Jesuits. He would later marry and would be excommunicated. Throughout his life, he continued to protest nuclear proliferation in the United States and was often imprisoned for his actions.
Zone du contenu et de la structure
Portée et contenu
Though he was not as often in contact with Merton as Daniel, Philip Berrigan influenced, and was influenced by, Merton. Philip Berrigan took an active posture of civil disobedience that did not rule out the use of violence toward property if that property were being used in service of immoral ends. Merton struggled with Philip's actions but spoke more with Daniel regarding these issues. Philip's correspondence file contains originals of his letters to Merton and copies of Merton's letters to him.
