A Letter on Human Nature
By Isaiah Berlin
Following are excerpts from a response by Isaiah Berlin to a letter from Beata Polanowska-Sygulska, then a researcher from the Jagiellonian University, Kraków, Poland, who, while working on a Ph.D. thesis on Berlin's philosophy of freedom, had written to him inquiring about his views. Dr. Polanowska-Sygulska later published a book on the same topic, Filozofia wolnosci Isaiaha Berlina (Isaiah Berlin's Philosophy of Freedom).[1] Footnotes have been added by Henry Hardy, one of Isaiah Berlin's literary trustees.
