Ivor Armstrong Richards, Fellow of Magdalene College, Cambridge University, noted for his writings on literary criticism, aesthetics and logic, has been appointed University Lecturer effective next September.
At Harvard he will have a roving commission without formal allegiance to any one faculty. He will probably be concerned with both the Department of English and the School of Education, giving no formal courses, but making himself available to students for informal instruction. He will be an associate of Eliot House.
Richards was co-author of "The Meaning of Meaning" and "Foundations of Aesthetics," and wrote "Principles of Literary Criticism," "Science and Poetry," "Practical Criticism," "Mencius on the Mind," "Basic Rules of Reason," and "Coleridge on Imagination."
A Fellow at Magdalene since 1926, he was visiting professor, at Tsing Hua University in Peking from 1929 to 1930.
